I’m delighted to announce that I’ll have two books coming out this spring! My first cozy mystery, A Greyt Greyhound Recue, is almost ready to send to the printer. It will be available as a paperback or an ebook in about three weeks. I’ll post details when I have them. The publisher is also doing a trailer to promote this book and I’ll share that on Facebook soon.
My historical fiction novel for middle grades students will be ready in April or May. The Indiana Historical Society Press has three editors working on it currently. They’ll send me an updated draft soon and give me a chance to make some final edits. The title is still undecided but a couple of possibilities being considered are Forged by Fire: Tales of Danger and Hope from Early Indiana History or From Fire to Freedom: Stories of Early Indiana. The publisher has the final say on the title in traditional publishing because it is technically part of advertising.
I’m also working on the second book in the Rachel Chance and Will Keller mystery series. I’m almost finished with my first rough draft and will be working with the same editor and publisher IBookLocker). I worked with for A Greyt Greyhound Rescue. It has been great fun writing more about Rachel and Will and seeing how they find themselves in yet another mystery. In book two, Rachel and Will have to peel away layers of deception to try to find answers while at the same time working through obstacles in their relationship. I’m thinking about calling A Greyt Deception or A Greyt and Deadly Deception but am still trying out different possible titles.
