The same day Push & Pull launched my friend was admitted into ICU. As much as I'd like to say he's doing better now, he's not. They are taking him off of life support tomorrow. It seems strange that I would share this with people I barely know, but I think I owe it to my readers who have been extremely patient with me during this process. I'm thankful for your kindness. In all honesty, I have been trying to push past this and move forward with the release. I thought for sure if I could make it through the weekend I would feel much better about it by Tuesday but the timing just isn't right. The good news is that I have been writing nearly every day and Power Play will be releasing...but it won't be tomorrow.

My heart is heavy delivering this news. It's hard to not to feel like a failure knowing that I am not only letting myself down, but many others as well. I'm sorry. It doesn't feel right releasing the next installment at such a sad point in my life and I need to shift my focus momentarily. I need to grieve, collect my thoughts, and reflect on what a great life my friend has lived, regardless of how short it was.

I won't push the release much longer. I promise. But I won't give a hard date again. When I'm ready to release it I will make sure everybody knows and if you're subscribed to my newsletter, you'll know immediately.

Thank you again for your support and I look forward to continuing Claire & Liam's journey soon.
