My young adult 1980s time travel novel, Time After Time, is available again in e-book, print, and audiobook with a new cover designed by Olive Reekie. It's available here on the website or your favorite book retailer. 

Megan Gallagher has only ever seen her mother as neurotic and overworked.

When a Whitney Houston song at the 80s dance sends Megan back to 1987, she discovers her teenage mom dressed in all black and sneaking liquor in the bathroom.

After preventing her mom’s drunk car accident, Megan realizes she has one month to get her teenage parents to stop partying and learn enough about her family’s secret to get back home.

Too bad the much cuter teenage version of her history teacher is such a distraction. With time running out and her future at stake, Megan must learn that, when it comes to family, you can’t always get what you want but you might just get what you need.

"A fast-paced novel about love and family and the 1980s that manages to be both totally tubular and amazingly poignant. Crawford is one to watch.” - Carrie Jones, NYT Bestselling Author of Need

Last Tuesday, my first traditionally published book, Time After Time, was released from The Parliament House press. The release went really well, and I had so much fun writing my guest post about ten 80s tunes I love and also doing an interview for The Parliament House's YouTube channel.

Thank you so much to everyone who bought a copy or shared about my book or just offered me your support. (Especially thanks to Julie Boniger who put together a surprise Zoom party to celebrate my book release!)

Here is the description for the book:

It's hard to believe my last blog post was three months ago, and I'm still working remotely. People are attempting to go back to some kind of normal, but I haven't left my house much.  

These are crazy times we're living in. Not only are we in the middle of this public health crisis, but now, there are protests and riots happening for racial justice. I have posted a few things on Facebook, and I did do a YouTube video explaining why Black Lives Matter, but for the most part, I've been quietly doing things to become a better ally. I started to list those things here, but then I realized I don't need credit for trying to be a good ally.  

What have I been up to? Quite a few things. 

I've been gearing up for the release of my YA 1980s time travel novel, Time After Time, which is being published on August 18th. If you are interested in reading an advanced review copy in exchange for an honest review, please email me at sara@saracrawford.net. 

I've been working on my draft of Until the Night Falls, the sequel to my YA vampire novel, Into the Shadows. I'll have some more news about that book coming soon.  

I've actually been playing my acoustic songs, and I even uploaded my acoustic album, Unsent Letters, to YouTube as a well as a video where I discuss the album. And I'm even planning to play an acoustic show in my living room that I will live stream on my Facebook page in August. So stay tuned for more info about that. 

And in other news, all three books in The Muse Chronicles will be available on all book retailers (Barnes and Noble, Kobo, Apple Books, etc.) in late July. So stay tuned about that as well! 

So that's what's going on with me. I hope you all are doing well and staying safe and healthy.

So most of you have seen this news on either my Facebook, Instagram, or my e-mail newsletter, but for those of you who didn't, I just wanted to announce that Parliament House Press will be publishing my young adult 1980s time travel novel, Time After Time, in the fall of 2020!
