Hello 2024. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Personally, I cannot say that with enough emphasis. 2023 was a rough year for me (broken up by a lovely trip to Japan in the middle). So, I'm looking ahead instead of reflecting on 2023 (although I did release a new prequel paperback to a new series--Night Stalker--a new boxset that contained a new story--No Free Souls in the Loan Soul boxset! Have you read the series? Please leave a review on the boxset!).
On the plus side, slowing launches has given me time to catch up on writing and plotting. I'm hopeful that I can LAUNCH MULTIPLE (4 if we're counting) NEW SERIES in 2024--and quickly, with book 2 not far behind! I look forward to sharing some exciting fictional escapes in 2024. Thank you for your patience, continued support, and encouragement.
Last year, I decided against new year's resolutions. They add unnecessary pressure (I'm already skilled at pressuring myself), so once again, I'm picking instead an area of intentional focus for the new year.
For 2024, my "resolution" (focus) is: Change. Accepting--or even embracing--it. Pushing for it. Actively seeking it. Or, if it were a book trope, maybe: New beginnings or fresh start. (I've been reading some midlife women's fiction, so that's fitting.)
That includes stepping out of my comfort zone to add new genres to my 2024 reading goal (50 books) and publishing plans (any guesses?!).
What is your 2024 trope (or focus, goal, resolution)?
Here are a few COMPLETE series you can read NOW to kick off your 2024 reading goals:
Kicking off 2024 with three new series, so here's to three that you can read NOW: Loan Soul (left), the Harbingers of Death (middle), and The Fox and the Howl (right)
