It's December 23rd already. How did this year fly by so quickly? It's been a good year for me. My first novel, Perfidy, won the 2013 Lovey Award for Best First Novel at the Love is Murder Conference in February. The second novel in the Circle City Mystery Series, Inconspicuous, was launched in July and my third novel, Ensconced, is all set to launch on March 7, 2014. I was also blessed this year with the opportunity to be published in the anthology, Hoosier Hoops and Hijinx, which was put together by the Speed City Sisters in Crime in Indianapolis. This fun anthology was edited by Brenda Stewart and Tony Perona.
I've also seen some of my friends enjoy the thrill of launching their first mystery novel.
J. Michael Major's One Man's Castle not only came out, but went into a second printing. Jeanne Meeks recently launched Rim to Rim, and Sue Myers first novel, Deception, came out in ebook this month and will be available in print soon. All three of these novels have been nominated for a 2014 Lovey Award for Best First Novel.
In 2014, I will attend more bookfests in the Midwest. I want to meet readers and find out what they enjoy. I also plan to blog more. I'll be interviewing Sue Myers in January and plan to do something special for you all involving my Circle City characters. And of course, above all, I will write. I'm still working on a YA fantasy and developing the idea of a private investigator series. I also want to get book four of the Circle City Mystery Series put to bed and have it out by Halloween.
Watch my schedule. It will start to fill up soon. I hope to see you sometime this year. Have a wonderful and safe holiday season.
Until next time.
