I was seven years old and reading short stories out of a journal to my class. It was clear that my imagination was leaps and bounds matured over my peers due to the nature of my stories. I fabricated a story about an alcoholic husband who beat his wife, but never in my short life had I ever witnessed such a thing. I just thought it made for good conflict. I was seven, let's not forget.
Fast forward a few years and poetry became my art. I had so many journals with countless poems, it was a wonder I could keep up with them all. A few were even published through contests held by my school. It was pretty clear I had a calling.
Throughout that whole time, reading was like a drug. Except it did the opposite from most drugs; it fueled my imagination and desire to become what I'd been working toward. I didn't fully begin to embrace this truth until much later in life. Having children, a divorce, a crazy ex and life in shambles had me turning to my old friend; books!
Finally, I decided to give it a go. I wanted to see if I could do it. I needed to see if I could do it. Mostly just to prove to myself that I was worth something. I needed to show that I wasn't just a bum whose life was down the toilet; I had something inside that no one could take away. So I started and didn't stop. I put my pen to paper or my hands to a keyboard and didn't stop.
A series was born that day - Legacy of Secrets. It may not be the best or the brightest, but it's still mine. I have a love-hate relationship with it, but mostly because I wasn't sure how to continue at times. Fiery Secrets took me about a year to finish, just because nothing felt right. This next book is flowing freely, but that usually means I'm going to have a harder time keeping within the requirements. The last book - Shattered Secrets - I've not even begun, but I already know it will be epic. Why? Because it has to be.
Legacy of Secrets will see its end in 2016. I will complete the saga that has been told and then retold several times over the last eight years. It will always be my first, being as how I popped my publishing cherry with it, but it will by far be the last. There's more to come in 2016. You'll have more to read, whether you like it or not.
Here's to a brand new year with brand new dreams...

Here's the deets...
So a few months ago I posted about what was coming up in 2015 and since, a few things have happened that I didn't expect. Here's the deets...
- Legacy of Secrets was optioned for a three year publishing contract through Raven's Seduction Press
- The Romantic Suspense novel was named Falling Undercover and became one of my most anticipated releases of this year
- Falling Undercover was shouldered while I worked on an author compilation through my publisher (see next bullet)
- I have a new title available for preorder with a handful of other authors from Raven's Seduction Press & Nevermore Press
- Legacy of Secrets may be expanding
- Chasers looks to be side-lined while some of these other projects are in the works
- My Facebook Fanpage is now VERIFIED!! (I'm officially a celebrity :P)
If you aren't already part of my Fangroup, head on over and jump in the conversation! Also, I have been building a street team this year and if you'd like to help a sista out, let me know! I have a journal I've been using to write some of my more obscure thoughts, not so much news.
There you have it...all of what's been going on. Be sure to keep up with me. My social media scrolls on the side. Until next time!!

What's Up in 2015
The Year of Possibilities
We've all seen the posts over the last few days; everyone talking about their resolutions and 'new year, new me' proposals and so on . While I know there are things that need to change in my normal day-to-day life, this post is going to be about what my *fans* are going to see from me this year.
New Genres
Currently, I'm working on a Romantic Suspense novel that I plan to publish in the next six weeks or so. While I am very enthusiastic about finishing Legacy of Secrets, I need to spread my proverbial wings to see just where they may take me. I'm not usually a traditional romance fan, but I don't plan on writing something that will be particularly typical of a romance. A little white collar crime, steamy sex, lying hussies and so on. You know, typical stuff.I also plan on working on a Sci-Fi novel that I'm incredibly excited about. It's a dystopian novel that takes a little bit of some of the more popular works and kind of meshes them together to make something completely new. I know that doesn't sound new, but trust me when I say this hasn't been attempted before (at least among the HUNDREDS of books I've read)! I'm totally stoked to tap into my inner Stephen King!
Legacy of Secrets
As I said, Legacy of Secrets will be (hopefully) wrapped up this year. I had intended to finish the series this spring, but seeing as how as I was planning a wedding last year I was a bit sidetracked. The titles coming up are as follows:
Blood Promise: A Legacy of Secrets Novella
Shattered Secrets: Legacy of Secrets #4
Untitled Novella
Chasers
If you follow me on Wattpad, you'd know that I have a serial story that I post on from time to time. It's more or less a writing exercise to make sure I don't get burnt out on writing the same ole same ole, but I do have an arc as to what's supposed to happen. I plan to write a lot more issues this year as, again, the wedding had me side tracked with much of my work last year. The next episode takes the guys another step into the little town near their compound where they start to realize what they're dealing with and face their limits.
Etc, etc, etc...
What else will I be up do this year? Who knows! My main goal is to have enough goodies to keep all of you entertained for as long as I can, without driving myself into a stupor. Here's to a great year ahead!

News Release: Highly anticipated book release coming soon from Lisa Logue
November 14, 2014 – Releasing this winter, Fiery Secrets: Legacy of Secrets #3 brings the Legacy of Secrets series another step closer to completion with this exciting new addition! Fiery Secrets begins with Lia’s struggle as a captive of the vile Trylle prince, Nolyn. Her main goal is to figure out his plan and find a way to save her friends and family, all while enduring terrible tortures and keeping the breadth of her abilities hidden. Nolyn’s true intentions take Lia by surprise and she will stop and nothing to end him and his reign.
Fiery Secrets sets a new tone by using the best elements of Young Adult novels with the fresh and more grown up New Adult genre. Just the right mixture of good versus evil and spicy romance keeps this novel at the forefront of its genre, begging to be read. Rated NC-17 for situations not suitable for children, Fiery Secrets and the preceding books in Legacy of Secrets are nothing short of satisfying for those who find Young Adult novels lacking.
Legacy of Secrets began with Cursed Secrets in 2010. The freshman titled opened the door for Lisa Logue’s paranormal romance series to be downloaded onto the Nooks, Kindles, iPads and Tablets around the world. With original monologues and relatable characters, this series blossoms in a genre made famous by titles such as Vampire Academy and Twilight. Lisa Logue continues this series with a projected eight books including novels and novellas.

Bloggity Blog Blog
Hello lovelies! I am blogging for the sake of it tonight as I'm attempting to get some much needed media time in. In truth, I'd rather just write and not need to deal with the formalities, but that wouldn't make much sense, now would it? How could you guys know about stuff unless I was here to tell you?
NaNoWriMo is here! I've been ferociously writing for the last few days, which is kind of the point of NaNo anyway. I am going to be trying to post updates throughout the process so please don't hate me! You will probably see me popping up quite a bit and I know I'm one of those "fine in small doses" kind of people. :)
What am I working on for NaNoWriMo, you ask? I am finishing Fiery Secrets and then moving on to Blood Promise with the hopes of having both stories done and released near or around Christmas time. I feel like it's a good deal considering all of the Kindles, Nooks, iPads and other tablets that will be floating around that day. People will be looking for books to read so it's kind of logical to release then. Both books will be available for preorder as soon as I get closer to the end of NaNo and have a set release. Pretty awesome :)
On a side note, I'm in desperate need of a volunteer PA (personal assistant) and/or a Street Team members. References are appreciated, but I'm willing to work with newbies because I'm a newbie, too. If anyone is interested in this, please email me and use "I Volunteer!" as the subject line (get it...from Hunger Games?). I will totally love you forever and you'll get some awesome goodies for helping me out.
Well, I need to get back to writing. I've got 3k words to dish out tonight to meet my quota for NaNo. If you're a writer participating, add me as a buddy! My username is LisaLogue and I'd love to have you on my list!
Until next time!

So Far

Sadly, this post has nothing to do with Supernatural. That will come later! No, this post is about the progress of book #3. Here's the road so far...

What's your footprint?
Hello lovelies! How is everyone on this Saturday evening? I'm working on widening my online footprint, which includes being an active blogger. I've been practicing on my sister blog Paranormal Booktivity. It's shaping up to be a fun experience so far that I'm hopeful will expand. I'll continue to post about it here so you all can follow its progress and see what I've been up to aside from writing.
On another note, I decided that since I don't have much else going on, I'm going to just start posting excerpts on here from Fiery Secrets instead of linking them only to Facebook. It's not fair to the folks who don't normally use it and this way, all of the platforms will be able to see the link. I'm not sure how many of you will enjoy them, but I'm trying!
I will be posting my progress for this WIP as well. As I get closer to finishing, I will be on the lookout for Beta Readers. Please don't hesitate to let me know ahead of time if you'd like to volunteer.
Stay tuned for excerpts, photos, and other updates and don't forget to share with your friends! :)
Until next time!

Anew
Hello lovelies!! It has been quite a month for me. I was very sick for two weeks, so sick in fact that I could do nothing but Netflix binge for about ten days. Doesn't seem so bad except it was an impromptu vaca that I definitely would have rather taken on a beach somewhere without the feeling yucky part. I guess it's just that time of year.
So, I've been pretty busy this week. Not only have I started finishing Fiery Secrets, but I've begun story boarding the remainder of the series and putting together my marketing package for the rest of this year. While I've started out slower than intended, I think things are finally picking up! I'll have more updates and information over the next few weeks. I'm expecting (if the planets align just so) to have Fiery Secrets completed before the end of June. I know I've said this like a BILLION times, but the difference this time is that I've changed the plot! I was trying to include too much into the story and it was driving me insane. After the decision to cut some of it out, I have been able to write without the anxiety. Guess I should have done that months ago, huh?
I'll leave you all with a new FS sneak peek. Catch you all soon!

Bookstore
For anyone who has not visited my website in the last 24 hours, I now have a bookstore! It is currently in the testing phase, so there may be kinks that need working out, but it is running! If you don't have the link, click here and you'll be taken to my website.
Tonight, I am finishing up some non-LoS related work before I jump back into working on Fiery Secrets. I've promised some impatient friends that I would do my best to finish it before the end of the month and I am going to do my best to keep that promise. It has dragged on for much too long and, despite my doubts, I'm going to write this story as if it were my last. Next after Fiery Secrets will be a novella about another secondary character before I embark on the last book of the series.
In between, however, I will be releasing snippets of other works on Wattpad & Bookrix, so be sure to keep up with those. I am going to do my best to blog better. I have no earthly idea who reads my blog or what they even want to read, by dammit I'm gonna try!
Gotta go write some stuff now. See you folks on the flip side! (Yeah, I'm a 90's kid. So what, wanna fight about it? [Family Guy reference]) :p

How do you know it's time to stop?
I've been struggling this year to come up with something...anything. Each time I think I might be able to sit down and write, I can't seem to keep my own attention long enough to get anything done. I have no idea what's wrong with me, but is this a sign that I just need to stop writing?
Of course my heart screams at the thought, but what else am I to do? I know I'm not a great writer. Good writer, maybe. Perhaps I am just at a turning point with this whole endeavor. Maybe the spark has left me for the time being. Whatever it is, I just want it to go away and let me dive back into my fantasies and whimsical worlds that exist inside my head.
I don't think this is writer's block. If it were truly writer's block, I wouldn't have any ideas swirling inside my mind; waiting to be released. No, this is something else. The last book I wrote was good. I don't mean good by only my own thoughts, I mean good from those who've read it and flooded my inbox with "OMG" emails and "I want more!!" comments. I have inevitably set myself up for failure!
How can I make the next book better than the last? How can I keep the story going for two more novels, knowing exactly how I want it to end, and not have the books drag on forever and hold absolutely zero interest from my readers? How?!
I am stuck...plain and simple. I have no good answers for these questions. Instead, I've been staring at the same boring words I've written for a story that is supposed to be exciting and suspenseful. Love, war, betrayal, redemption and duty molded together and topped with a pretty little bow. How the hell am I supposed to make it all happen and not feel like every word is complete and utter crap-ola?
Any suggestions?

Hermit, I am
NaNoWriMo helped me get a good start on finishing Fiery Secrets and I'm glad I decided to do it. I didn't finish yet, but I have definitely gotten a good start and I'm happy about that. Luckily, I have a vacation from my full-time job coming up and I'm hoping to finish then. So much is going to happen with this book, sometimes I just don't know how I'm going to fit it in!
Anyway, I wanted to give you all a quick update. There will be some exciting things coming up in 2014 that I will be posting and sharing all over the web. I will be finishing up Legacy of Secrets and moving on to my next project, which I am incredibly excited about! If there is something you all want to see from me, don't hesitate to drop a line!

Wow it's been a while...
So I didn't realize until now just how long it has been since my last post. I've been super busy with a new position at my day job, the kiddos starting school, taking care of a new puppy and trying not to lose my mind! Ultimately, I've been letting life get in the way of my writing responsibilities and I'm slowly bringing myself back in to the correct mindset. I hope you all can forgive me!
Anyway, I'm still hoping to have Fiery Secrets completed before Thanksgiving and I'm working out a plan to help with that. If it means writing every weekend for the next two months, then that's what I plan to do! Rest assured, I will come out of the dark and back into my writing universe very very soon.
Keep an eye out for more blogs and posts. I'll be setting up some stories and what not within the next few days. Until next time!
XOXOXO

Lazy Sunday
I don't know if you're like me at all, but I hate doing much on Sundays. I prefer to use Sundays as a lazy day to help re-charge me for the rest of the week. Between work, school, kids and writing I tend to get a bit jaded. So, instead of doing anything other than laundry, I've been online most of the day poking around or playing games. It's now after 6pm and I've decided to do some writing.
The problem is that lately I've been conflicted between writing more on the serial Chasers or jumping into Fiery Secrets. I tend to lean towards the latter, mostly because I have a fall deadline. Still, some of the story just hasn't struck me yet. I think part of that is because I've not fully immersed myself in the possibilities. As I ramble on about it, it seems that Fiery Secrets is the logical choice.
Also, I will be releasing a box set of the current books in the series very soon. I've run a few giveaways on my Fanpage, but the edited version hasn't been revealed as of yet. So, I will be sure to post links once it goes live. Here's a picture of the cover so you know what to look out for. ;)

Falling Short
Today marks the day that I am officially back in action! I took some much needed time off, only working when I wasn't unpacking and/or working my 8-5 job. The last few months have been a whirlwind of excitement and sleepiness, but I think I've finally worked out the kinks. I know that I've been falling short lately (again), but I'm going to be working hard not to let that happen again. I haven't been reading much this last week, but I have been thinking about where to take my current stories and I think I have a pretty decent foundation. I am making it a point to have the first issue of Chasers out as soon as possible. I have to polish up some of the edges and do some quick edits and it should be good to go.
As for Fiery Secrets, I'm still shooting for a late Fall release. With my hiatus over, I am actually really excited about getting back into it and busting out some good stuff for you guys. I haven't been excited about it in a while because I was so busy all the time. That's when you know you need a break! I've never stopped completely, though. I've written a few chapters here or there and some other random bits, but I haven't sat down to work steadily. That is changing now!
Well, I'll be off to do some writing and set up some blogs for later this week. I will see you guys on the flip-side! :)

The joys of non-inspiration
I've been reading and thinking and attempting and reading some more, but words aren't flowing too easily for me right now. It could be the sense of constantly feeling like I'm forgetting something, or maybe my mind just needs a reset button, but so far nothing is working. Who knows? Maybe I just need to seriously sit back and think about the direction my writing is going and whether it's something I need to completely rethink (something I REALLY don't want to do).
By that last statement, I mean continuing Legacy of Secrets through 4 books as intended, or simply ending it with 3. I don't want to do that either, because I don't think I can truly finish the story in 3 books while at the same time not having the slightest clue how I'm going to get to book 4 at the current pace. Decisions, decisions.
So, on that note, I think I'm going to go to bed and think on this some more. I'll be setting up a serious schedule where I will add in more time to blog to myself (and whomever decides to read this) as well as writing time and marketing time. The excited part of my brain is beginning to lose steam and exhaustion is setting in. Blah!
Good night, lovelies and please don't hesitate to comment!

Settlin'
I am not settled in the new house, but not quite settled enough to have a regular routine. Often, I'm leaving the hunny to go to bed on his own while I squeeze out some time to write and network (I know, it's horrible!). But soon I will have a working schedule come hell or high water!
Some good news:
I've been getting great feedback on the beta testing of the new version of Cursed Secrets. I am waiting on two more betas to respond before I make any changes and publish. I will also be submitting the manuscript to a local news outlet for review and hopefully a story. THAT is truly the exciting part!
Work on Fiery Secrets is beginning to pick up. I have a good starting point and I've been working hard on getting the storyline down as well as listening to what the voices...er..I mean characters tell me. ;)
Recently, I've started a new project called Chasers. It will be a serial based on more of a supernatural front versus paranormal. I am trying to lean away from the romance side and try my hand at more action type work. (Gearing up for my next project...wink wink) I will be posting the serial on BookRix as it is a free reading site. I will link the posts from here for all to read and again...it's free!
Some bad news:
Legacy of Secrets is slowly coming to a close!
After Fiery Secrets, there will be a novella and one more full novel- and it will be the end! I've really loved these characters and this story, but all good things must come to an end (some wise person said, I think!). But, that also means that I will be able to move on to my next big project!
So, there you have it folks! Once I get my schedule down, I will be adding more to my blog on a more regular basis in hopes of broadening my reach and audience. Until next time!

Work on Fiery Secrets is beginning to pick up. I have a good starting point and I've been working hard on getting the storyline down as well as listening to what the voices...er..I mean characters tell me. ;)
Recently, I've started a new project called Chasers. It will be a serial based on more of a supernatural front versus paranormal. I am trying to lean away from the romance side and try my hand at more action type work. (Gearing up for my next project...wink wink) I will be posting the serial on BookRix as it is a free reading site. I will link the posts from here for all to read and again...it's free!
Some bad news:
Legacy of Secrets is slowly coming to a close!
After Fiery Secrets, there will be a novella and one more full novel- and it will be the end! I've really loved these characters and this story, but all good things must come to an end (some wise person said, I think!). But, that also means that I will be able to move on to my next big project!
So, there you have it folks! Once I get my schedule down, I will be adding more to my blog on a more regular basis in hopes of broadening my reach and audience. Until next time!

Rainy Days
It's days like today where I'd curl up on the couch with a blanket, my Nook, and something sweet to drink. Unfortunately, I'm in the process of moving so this isn't happening! Instead, I'm trying to finish up homework for the week so I won't have to worry about needing to stop in the midst of everything to write a paper or take a quiz. Fun, right?
That being said, I'm actually close to being finished with the re-write of Cursed Secrets. I haven't had much time to work on it, but there aren't very many aspects that need to be changed. I guess you can think of it as a re-imagining. Cursed Secrets was my first novel and also the one that started everything. I feel as though I'm not doing the series justice if I don't rework this novel to put out the best possible product. The general idea to this novel will be the same, but there are some points that will be expanded and others that will be just plain new.
I still have intentions of releasing Fiery Secrets this fall. It's still in its infancy, but once I get started I think it will be all downhill. Most of the time I just have characters screaming in my head and I simply obey and write my little heart out. Here's to hoping they don't desert me!
Well, I won't be available very much next week so I hope you all are well. I'll talk to you soon!
Happy reading! xoxoxo

Ramblings of Nonsense
I'm excited to announce that I will be revamping (no pun intended) Cursed Secrets. As my first novel, there are areas of it that easily fall short of the direction of the story and the intended relationships of the characters. It was rough, to say the least. Since I have a better direction and more experience under my belt, it is only fair to give it another go and allow the opening to be as epic as the ending will undoubtedly be. I'm actually pretty excited to give my debut a face-lift and see what happens!
I've also decided to release my novellas in print with the other books. There have been a few people that have asked for this and I am just about ready to make it happen. I'm super excited for all of the new stuff this year. I hope I can continue to grow with the support of all of my friends and readers. I would be nothing with you guys!
Also, there are a few sites I want to link that I find particularly enjoyable. Some are other authors I know, others are some that I just like to follow. Feel free to partake and let them know I sent you!
And in case you've missed them, here are my personal links!
