Alas, it’s
been a few weeks since I’ve written something for my own blog! First, I was
visiting over on Melissa Kier’s blog, then Karen Doctor’s, and then I was asked
to whip something up for Southern Writers Magazine so I’ve been busy writing
blogs but for everybody else! I figured
that since I haven’t been around on my own blog I needed to do a quick recap!
There are twelve days until my next book, Illusions, drops! I’m so looking forward to it!
Illusions is one of those storylines that pulls a reader in slowly and then
they suddenly realize that they love the characters so much they can’t put it
down! My beta readers loved it so I have
high hopes that everybody else will too! If you haven’t heard about Illusions yet,
swing by my website and check it out!
There’s also ONE week left to preorder an
autographed copy so place your order now if you haven’t already!
I’m also
in the process of updating my 2005 Inspirational, Heart of Stone to be
re-released both in hard copy and ebook.
It’s been given a good overhaul, procedures discussed in the first few
printings have been updated and it has a new cover! I’m hoping to have it ready
in time for Christmas shoppers who might be looking for a good Inspirational as
a gift!
I’ve also
gotten a lot of mail wanting to know when Bad Medicine is coming out! There’s good news and bad news there, folks!
The good news is that I’m in negotiations with another publisher to take over
the entire series. The bad news is that they have some request for tweaking the
series a tad – which is fine by me, but not so hot for my readers, Bad Medicine
may not hit the shelves until next June.
Don’t panic yet, though, like I said, we’re still in negotiations. I will definitely keep everybody updated
because the White River Killer is STILL out there, Andie & Taylor STILL can’t get their act
together at the same time and everybody deserves to know who dies in the next
book!
And last, but not least, I've gotten emails as of late asking why I'm not doing the whole "I am thankful" thing over on Facebook and/or Twitter. I know that people do this around Thanksgiving and I think it's a cool thing BUT - I believe that it's important to be thankful every day, not just because Thanksgiving has rolled around once again.
I'm thankful every day that I have another day to live, another day to breath, another day to write and another day to share with my friends, family and students. As we grow closer to Thanksgiving, let's keep in mind that being thankful is a frame of mind that should carry us through every day of the year! Happy reading everybody!!
