Christmas Love

I'm working on the second clean romance in my Heart of Christmas series. I slacked off and should have had this one done months ago.

What are you writing or reading?

Have you started reading those Christmas romances yet?

All the best,
Patti

Working on a New Romance

Wow! It's been awhile.

Last year, I focused mainly on cozy mystery as KP Stafford. This year, I'm trying to juggle both. That means fewer books for both genres, but the writing time will be the same.

My heart has always been in romance, but I do enjoy the quirkiness of my cozies, so I don't see myself giving either up.

What have you been reading or working on?

Off to The Editor

I sent the cozy mystery off to the editor this past week. I liked writing it, but have to admit I didn't like the editing stage.
I enjoy reading cozies, but I prefer to write a bit darker and more suspenseful.

I do have a suspense novel I finished writing. I've started on edits for it and having a lot more fun working with it.

That's pretty much my news. What's happening in your world of writing or reading.

January is Almost Gone - Zip!

Can you believe we’re almost a full month into the new year? How time flies. I’m taking my romantic suspense novel through a comprehensive revision course. It’s tedious and time consuming, but I know it will be worth it.

I’m also editing a cozy mystery so I can get it published soon. I’m ready to get something out there. It will be Book 1 in a four part series. I’ve done some planning on Book 2, but nothing major at the moment.

It’s somewhat of a cutesy cozy. I enjoyed writing it and love the characters. I hope to have it ready to publish by the first of March. It may not be up to what I think my standards are, but you have to start publishing at some point. Right?
