Kensington Promotion

Posted on April 23, 2016 Updated on April 23, 2016

I just received word that my publisher (Kensington) is doing a big promo of ebooks in June and my last book, “The Memory of Your Kiss,” will be on sale for 99 cents. OK, the title is a bit hokey, but it’s a good story. Look it up on Amazon. 99 cents! Where else are you going to get 4-6 hours of entertainment for a dollar???? I’m excited about this because when did this with the previous book, sales skyrocketed!

FEELING OVERWHELMED

Posted on April 13, 2016

Dear friends,

Even the queen of procrastinators (yours truly) eventually has it all catch up with her!

I am currently working on the first of a three-book series about three young (mid-twenties) women who attended the same girls’ boarding school in their teens.  Although the three come from well-connected families, they are all independent-minded “bluestockings” who operate, not at all unhappily, outside the central circles of society.

Getting the first book off and running has been something of a chore—and remember: I am the queen of procrastinators!  The deadline for the finished first novel is June 30.  (Arrgh!)  I have five chapters written (of a projected 22-25).

Hassles aside, I’m enjoying the work. It is a take-off on the Pygmalion/My Fair Lady story with my heroine taking the Pygmalion/Professor Higgins role.  Set in 1814, it also involves political intrigue around Napoleon’s exile to the island of Elba.  I hope you will like it.

So—I am taking leave of the blogosphere for a while—at least a month—but I shall return!  Hope to reconnect (resume?) with you then.
