Description
You think you know the world of magical boarding schools? Not from a teacher’s perspective at a school for at-risk youth. Clarissa Lawrence’s lifelong dream of being a witch living in a magical realm came true when she learned she was descended from a powerful witch. Those dreams are shattered now that she has been drained of her magic. She doesn’t know if she will ever be able to cast spells again, let alone survive teaching juvenile delinquent students who can hex her. As if living without magic isn’t horrible enough, Clarissa’s job is threatened by budget cuts, teachers hate her more than ever for releasing a demon in the dungeon of the school like her mother had, and evil Fae want to kidnap her because they think she can solve their problems. Unless Clarissa can figure out how to get her magic back, return Khaba as dean of discipline of the school, and help Womby’s increase its budget, she might not have a job at all. Her situation only grows more complicated when she realizes the man she once loved wants her dead, and she must trust a Fae enemy to help her solve some of these problems. For the remaining problems, she’s going to need a lot of luck.

Marketing Plan
I am using AMS and Facebook ads. I have sales planned periodically, which always help boost sales of other books in the series. My newsletter has been a good resource for when I publish a new book, so I will continue to do that. I use social media but it isn’t as effective as my newsletter. I am going to a conference soon to learn new things about my advertising and will apply some of those techniques. So far one of my biggest ways of generating revenue has been releasing another book in the series.
