Big Things Are Happening!
After two weeks in France it’s time to get back to the business of books and getting a new audiobook ready for release. If all goes as planned, “Killer Flowers” will be available for the audiobook fans of the world by mid-May. There were some challenges with getting the narration completed, but it’s finally done and I should have it uploaded by the time you read this. Fingers crossed!
We met delightful people during our 14 days of land and river cruise excursion. The French shopkeepers and servers were very patient with my high school French, even though they all spoke lovely English. My husband swears he can’t look at another cathedral, chateau, castle, or Roman or Medieval ruin, but I was enthralled with the French history. I ordered a book (I like to hold real books instead of reading eBooks) to learn more, just because.
“Killer Wedding,” the second book in my Christie’s Flower Shoppe cozy mystery series, is in the hands of my editor as I write this. I’m hoping there will be minimal revision this time so it will be ready to release sometime this summer. I love the cover, which I will share with you soon. And I am eager to start book eight in my Julia Fairchild series. I spent a little time while on the plane coming up with a plot and a few twists and turns.
Until next time, happy reading!
