I announced this on my FB author page a few months ago, but didn't think to notify Goodreads. Book #5 is not in the works right now. I am slowly working on another book, not a Doug and Carlie story. I'm not permanently closing the door on the series. Perhaps this is only a temporary setback. There are many reasons book #5 didn't come to fruition. Probably the biggest one is that I need to focus on marketing the first four books. Like a lot of writers, I'm sadly inept at marketing. I hope you'll help me spread the word. Another reason book #5 didn't happen is that I can honestly say I like all four of the books. I started #5 and just didn't have the affection for the story. So, I'm not sure whether the series is on hold or whether it will eventually be laid to rest with four books. But one thing I do know. I appreciate the small though faithful band of folks who loved the characters and made this journey so very worthwhile. Thank you. Oh, and here's the link to my author page. I hope you'll "like" it and we can stay in contact there: https://www.facebook.com/lisasmarttbo...(less)

You Don’t Need a Man?

[image error]


There’s a super popular mantra right now.  I guess it’s been popular for years, maybe decades.


You don’t need a man.


The mantra is sometimes accompanied by the following addendums:


Girl, you got your own money!


Girl, you’re as smart as any man, probably smarter!


Girl, you need to be out there killin’ it for YOU!


Girl, you didn’t get all that education to spend your life serving a grown

“Any dog can bed down a lot of females. But only a real man can love one woman for a lifetime.”
Lisa Smartt, Doug and Carlie

“If you're a disheveled, easily distracted person, it's always scary when someone asks what your plan is for the day. We don't know our plans.

Distracted people make plans "in transit.”
Lisa Smartt, Doug and Carlie's Love Conspiracy

“Don't be fooled, Clara. No one's new and shiny. Not really.”
Lisa Smartt, Doug and Carlie's Love Conspiracy

“Don't be fooled, Clara. No one's new and shiny. Not really.”
Lisa Smartt, Doug and Carlie's Love Conspiracy

“Wait a second, Carlie. You're not telling me you're letting Aunt Charlotte help you find a man for Clara? Are you serious? You think My Aunt Charlotte, who has a raccoon in the house and washes out Dixie bathroom cups, knows where the right guy is for Clara Johnson?”
Lisa Smartt, Doug and Carlie's Love Conspiracy

“Any dog can bed down a lot of females. But only a real man can love one woman for a lifetime.”
