“Winter Home at Night”
Painting by Tom Hoy
From fineartamerica.com
what grows in the winter but the cold
pushes lengthening fingers of frost
along sidewalks and down dead-end streets
up the stairs into parlors no purpose
at hand but to freeze every clock and
with that put a stop to the end of the night
Hello my dear readers,
I am afraid that Storm Dwellers may not be ready as early in October as I had hoped. The script is back from the editor, & I’ve been working diligently. Next thing I know, suddenly I decided that I might…only might, mind you…make some changes having something to do with a future storyline. Not the next book, but the third in line.
Oh, how I hate when that happens. I sure wanted an October release. Especially by Halloween. However, I also know that a good story, one finished appropriately, is better than one published while an author is unsure.
Please stay tuned while I wrestle with myself.
I’ll be posting a blog a day in October. A little witchy fun, maybe a bit o’magic. I’ll even try my skills at flash fiction. Then again, maybe not. Hmmm…. Well, tune in during October!
I’m really excited to share with you today the cover for my new novel PERMANENT SPRING SHOWERS!
PERMANENT SPRING SHOWERS is being published by 5 Prince Books (you can find the page for the book here).
This really awesome cover was created by Daniel Phillips. During the day Daniel is an audio/video engineer/editor based out of Arvada, CO with a passion for filmmaking (especially documentaries) and loves print design. He works at SCM Productions which is a full-service audio/video production studio (you can find them on the internet at www.scmpro.com). I think his work perfectly captures the vibe of this little twisted book.
Over the next few months, I look forward to telling you more and more about my new novel!
