For the past four weeks, Minnesota has been blessed with some beautiful weather, and I’ve been enjoying it particularly since this time of year can be very rainy. The sunshine has definitely perked my spirits up, and I hope the weather in your area has been treating you well, too.

The past year and a half was nothing but getting my King’s Crossing series ready to publish. I ate, slept, and breathed those characters, in some way shape or form since 2020, and, more recently, working non-stop so they were ready to finally be released. That takes a lot of time and energy for an author, especially for such a big project like that, and you’d think that after I wrapped those up I would have taken a break. I did, for a little bit, a few days, maybe, but I’m not good at relaxing, I suppose, and decided to go back to 2018 when I published my small-town Christmas series and give them new wrapping and brand new bows. I’m redoing their covers and re-editing them, and I’m hoping I’ll have them ready for a fresh re-launch in December. I’ll keep you updated.

So that’s what I’ve been working on, and I’m not sure what I’ll do after that’s over. A real break is long overdue, but I like writing, so I’ll probably keep working on a standalone I have planned to release next summer after my King’s Crossing series is completely out. That will be a big change, but it will be welcome and I love the characters.

The last thing I wanted to tell you about is Cruel Fate, the first book in my King’s Crossing series, is up for grabs in a Goodreads giveaway! Over a thousand people have already entered, and I’m giving away 100 ebook copies! If you want to enter, even if you downloaded an ARC and want to help pump up my numbers, you can look here: https://www.goodreads.com/giveaway/enter_kindle_giveaway/397874-cruel-fate

I’m really awed and humbled so many people have shown interest in my series, and a sincere thank you to everyone who has made Cruel Fate‘s launch a success!

That’s all I have for today. I was a little heavy with the posts as my series launched, and I’ll ease up now. I’ll leave you with a picture of a squirrel eating a corncob on my balcony. I love feeding those little guys. They’re so cute!
