LG and Michelle Keep up the Pace with "Mollywood"


When LG Pace III and Michelle Pace first decided to write a book together, they thought it would be a good idea for him to write the male perspective and her to write the female perspective. After trying it out for a while, they discovered that process might work for others, but it didn't work for them.  Instead, they work together the entire way.  

Sometimes they go line by line.  Sometimes one of them gets going and the other tweaks the contributions.  But either way, there is no "him" and "her".  It's "them".

The second installment of the "Carved Hearts" series titled "Mollywood" explores the issue of taking a "him" and "her" and turning their relationship into a "them".  They quickly find out, it's not always easy to do.

As you discovered in "Good Wood", the first in the series, both Joe and Molly have been through their fair share of trauma.  Life has not necessarily been kind.  But where many authors let the readers believe that finding true love makes everything better, the Paces recognize that the story doesn't end with the words "I love you".  No, that's when the hard work begins.  When all your patterns and bad habits have to be dealt with because it's not just about you anymore.  When you stand to lose everything if you don't figure your crap out.

The story is crafted beautifully, which I am coming to expect from the Paces.  There are twists and turns and surprises around every corner.  But maybe best of all, I could feel all of the heartache and difficulty as Joe and Molly go through this journey.  My stomach clenched and my heart hurt.  I even started crying on the treadmill at the gym.  (Thanks for that Paces.  It wasn't embarrassing at all.)

If you haven't already read "Good Wood", you really need to pick it up by clicking here.  It's only $.99 and you will fall in love with the story.  

After your done with that, head on over to "Mollywood" by clicking here.  Just like life continues on even when a relationship is established, so does life with Joe and Molly.

Oh, and by the way, the final installment is in the works as you read this.  Yes, that makes me giddy with excitement.  And yes, I will read it on the treadmill if I need to.  Embarrassment be damned!

The Paces continue to work on perfecting their craft and have, once again, carved up
