The more-or-less mainstream novel 'Asanas' is (finally!) complete—written, edited, formatted, proofread! It took a while, mostly because I paused to write a couple of my little fantasy adventures along the way. That was okay, I probably needed the time to think deep thoughts about where the book was going. :)

Official release date from Arachis Press is June 16. As usual, it will probably pop up online before then. Print and ebook, of course, available pretty much everywhere (Amazon included).

Asanas revolves around a yoga class (hence the name), an art gallery, and the lives of two young women in a Gulf Coast Florida town. Here's the official back-cover blurb:

Yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow only a vision.

Two women. A yoga class, an art gallery. The little Gulf Coast resort town of Tamarind seems to go to sleep when the ‘season’ is over, when tourists and winter residents alike return north. But turmoil lurks beneath that drowsy surface.

For Lynn and Karen, their yoga class becomes something more. Workaholic Karen decides yoga instructor Pat is ‘just what she needed.’ But would she ever be what he needs? Lynn has her doubts, as she does about own relationship with a charismatic married artist.

Through the heat and storms of a South Florida summer, passions and tensions grow, testing both love affairs and friendships. Life has its own asanas, its movements and postures, as surely as a yoga class, and its own lessons to teach in
