First, a summary of my latest news:
My latest novel, Krantor's Mate, will be released on May 1st, 2023 - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

ARC sign up for the book is still open until April 10th on the following link: https://forms.gle/PQPRBncWe27sSQxq8

I've also written a prequel novella, Laijar's Temptation, to go with Krantor's Mate, which I'm offering for free to my readers on Book Funnel via this link:

And so I come to the question at the top of this blog. What next?

I've never thought of myself as a one-trick pony, and despite my recent foray into sci-fi romance, I'm still very interested in writing other romance genres. I'd love to try my hand at a historical sometime soon, and I also have plenty of ideas for contemporary romances.

However... I'm not quite ready yet to leave the world I created in Krantor's Mate behind. So for now, all I can say is that my next work, as yet untitled, will be set on Krovatia, the planet from which the boral crystals that feature in Krantor's Mate were stolen. And my main female protagonist will be Melinda Garcia, who we met in Krantor's Mate when she was Earth's Ambassador to Mars.

This will be a mature romance as Melinda is in her early forties, and I'm envisioning the male alien hero to be several years older - something of an alien silver fox. I'll be sure to keep you updated of the tropes in due course.

All the best,
M.M. Wakeford
