Early this morning, the third and final book in the A Town Called River trilogy came out in e-book (paperback coming soon!).

Am I excited? Of course! It’s also surreal (I’ve said that for the previous two books too, I know) because one day you’re an aspiring novelist in 2020 and then somehow it’s 2024 and you’ve finished a trilogy.

The entire road has been both long and short because what is time and space warps in the strangest ways. I still remember talking to Antonija, her asking me if I have anything to submit to Vesna and her’s publishing cottage, and recalling something I’d been noodling with for a few weeks the year before. When I started writing A Town Called River I wondered if even it will come out good let alone if I’ll be able to do a sequel… and then what seemed like a distant finishing line (writing an entire trilogy about Paul) suddenly became a thing behind me.

And so here I am, staring at the screen and the “Out Now” above the image of *my* *third* *novel* and the sense of accomplishment is real and there’s not a peep from my impostor syndrome so… yay!
