A Raging Madness is with the beta readers and I've written the first 500 words of the sequel, The Realm of Silence. These are books 2 and 3 of the Golden Redepennings series that began with Farewell to Kindness.

My newest novel, Revealed in Mist, has just gone live on most online retailers.

This astounds me, but A Baron for Becky is still in the top 20 on Amazon US for Historical Regency Fiction, and 7th in Hot New Releases. Fifteen days after release. So happy!

And it's out.
After an eight hour Facebook Party, A Baron for Becky is well and truly launched. And trending on Amazon, which is truly lovely.

Baron for Becky is with the proofreader, and early unproofed ARCs have gone out for review. Always a nerve-wracking time!

I've added my new book, A Baron for Becky, to my author page. Released on 5 August, it tells the story of a fallen woman and the men who want her to fall on her feet.

Farewell to Kindness is now available almost worldwide. Just three quarters of an hour to go for the rest of the continental US, and then another 4 hours for various Pacific Islands.

The launch of Farewell to Kindness is only 10 days away. I've put up a giveaway between now and then - hope to see it soon. Very exciting!

Farewell to Kindness is on prerelease at Amazon.

I almost have a new cover! I travel to work on the same train as the designer, and we put the final touches to the design this morning during the one hour trip. Pre-release Monday week, and Publication date 1 April.

Farewell to Kindness is at proofreader, and Encouraging Prudence is on the iPad which is on the charger (along with all the books I want to read). Sigh.

Now starting final edit. All the beta reader feedback is in, and I have coloured pens and a printout.

Loving the characters. The end is predestined, but the journey is delightful.

Candle's Christmas Chair is now available free from iBooks.

Feisty heroine, strong-minded kind and humorous hero, excellent repartee

Candle's Christmas Chair is also available from Scrib'd (free), and Amazon (99c). It's free on Smashwords in all formats.

And writing a review. Fabulous dialogue and a compelling story

I'm at the 'yell out to the characters to beware' point of the story. Great fun.

Up to chapter nine. I like Bella.

A duke who is wicked, but not bad; a duc who is wicked and just nasty. Neither show their true face. How will she tell?

Up to Chapter 7 and thoroughly enjoying it.

Novel and novella both out to beta readers, and I've figured out where the protagonists of the next novel disappeared to. Life is good.

My third draft gone to beta readers. I've now written 4,117 words in Candle's Christmas Chair - a short story or novella (I'll tell you when I get to the end).

The third draft of Farewell to Kindness is ready to go to Beta Readers. Now I need to immerse myself in my other projects and try not to obsess about what they think of it.

I've just finished the 3rd draft of Farewell to Kindness. Now to get it out to beta readers.

Very exciting! I think I've picked the villain, but I'm intrigued by Montgomery - and do I sense two more romances for future books? The soldier and his charge, and Montgomery and Miss Royce?

Glorious. I've been waiting for Apollo's story, and so far I'm really enjoying it.
