I’m sad to say my epic European adventure is almost at an end, but I think I got my money’s worth. I put 5-7 miles a day on my new bionic knee (which doesn’t feel quite so bionic anymore), ate gelato every single day (don’t worry, I left some for others) and got lots of ideas for new stories!
Trekking the Epic World
I hope you’re enjoying your European adventure with Ned as much as I’ve been enjoying my Italian vacation. Sure, your adventures may have been more on the suspenseful side…but what did you expect? A relaxing stroll through Florence?
Me and Drew having a relaxing stroll through Florence.
All joking aside, I am so thankful for the kind reviews already pouring in for Ned and I can’t wait for the rest of the world to get their hands on the book when it releases on Amazon and other retailers and paperback on 6/6!
Adventure is calling!
So, I’ve been head down, writing hard to get to a mini-deadline on book 5 of the Minnesota Marshalls (CREED!) before I pack my bags and head off to a quick, but desperately needed, vacay in Italy! This is how far I’ve gotten in my packing…
I’m so excited to hang out in Italy again—I know we went last year,
So long and thanks for all the fish!
Drew and I took our last walk on the beach today. Well, not our last walk, hopefully, but we’re headed north this weekend as we hear the snow is gone and it’s safe to enter Minnesota again. (But we’re not holding our breath. We know Minnesota…)
So, here they are—the last sad pictures of our daily walk on the beach.
Some weekend goodies for you!
This is Susie’s assistant (and you caught me—daughter) here! Susie got lost in the writing cave and has somehow pulled others in with her!
I’m just kidding, that is her writing mastermind group and they are fabulous! We owe a lot of Susie’s brilliance to the honing of her skills with this wonderful group of women.
I think there’s light at the end of the tunnel…
I’m still deep in writing (although starting to see light at the end of the tunnel!), but just a quick note that JONAS comes out on Tuesday! But you can still get the Amazon $4.99 preorder price until then or download it now on the store for $9.99!
Something I don’t usually do.
Hello from the beach!
This is my sweet daughter (who is also an author, BTW – find her books here and on Kindle Unlimited) a couple weeks ago on the beach. It’s spring break here, and the beaches are now packed…which is a great time to work on a novel!
A glimpse at the mess…
I’m at it again.
Spent this week plotting a new book. I’m currently working on IRIS, book 4 in the Minnesota Marshalls series, and oh, this is a fun one. The little hint I’ll give you is that I’m using this book for research…
Currently, the story looks like this:
Which then translates to this:
But I’m getting WAY ahead of myself because next up is book #2 in the series – JONAS.
Just curious…
So, first, thank you for all the sweet reviews about Fraser! He’s quietly been climbing the charts while you’ve been leaving kind reviews, and I’m grateful.
So, I’m just back from a fun writing retreat with 8 authors and my business partner for a publishing company I run (Sunrise Publishing) – and we got to chatting about book themes,
Update on Fraser and more fun stuff!
Look who made it out of her writing cave long enough to see the sun! That’s right, this girl! I’ve been hard at work finishing up the next book in the Minnesota Marshalls series and I think I’ve earned a quick walk on the beach with my hubby.
Speaking of the Minnesota Marshalls,
