Good morning!
I have eighteen features stories to share with you today. More will be posted over the weekend, so do watch for them.
If you live locally: Tomorrow My WriteonJoliet co-leader Tom Hernandez and I will be at The Book Market in Crest Hill. The owner had to close the store for a couple of weeks, so we'd like to make the day profitable for her.
Tom will be selling and signing his books from noon to 2 p.m.
I will be selling and signing my books from 2 to 4:30 p.m. I have titles for all ages. Some of the books are just the right size to fit into a stocking, too. You will find a list of the BryonySeries books here.
I will also have WriteOn Joliet anthologies for sale (including our 2021 release), Nine Months of Kindness and the Little Book of Revision, which is perfect for writers of memoirs and fiction.
I will also have FREE hot chocolate bombs with select purchases, so please stop out.
And now, an update on my fiction projects.
I am currently re-reading my scribbled first draft for Call of the Siren (the second book in the BryonySeries Limbo trilogy) and starting to color in the lines. I'm anticipating a late spring publication date, especially since I finall broke through the "word block" wall last weekend.
Rebekah has the cover ready to go. Nancy Calkins created the gorgeous cover art.
Sue Midlock has completed the art for Cornell Dyer and the "Mistical Being" (cover looks great, by the way) and has begun the art for Cornell Dyer and the Calcium Deficient Bones.
Timothy has nearly completed the outline for the next book in the series, a Sherlock Holmes parody (the main character is Sherman Homes).
Sarah also had a crazy dream that sounded perfect for An Adventure of Cornell Dyer mystery. But she wants time to draw some sketches, a map, and write the "rules." It's called Cornell Dyer and the House of Broken Portals.
Bertrand the Mouse has "returned," and you can read about it here, here, and here.
Jennifer Wainright (frontispiece artist for Lycanthropic Summer) has completed two portraits for "Girls of the BryonySeries" series for tween girls and is currently working on a third. The portraits are beautiful and it shows that artist Jennifer Wainright can draw anything from werewolves to portraits!
Rebekah Baran has completed cover art for two of "Girls of the BryonySeries" books. They are beautiful! One book in this series of eight books is completely written, a second is halfway written, and the rest are outlined.
Now back to the eighteen stories. Simply click on the link of the story that looks interesting to you. Happy scrolling!
But before the stories, I have a list of additional resources and information. Please check them out, too -
Finally, if you'd like to find more kindness in your life, consider this book.
And have a great Friday!
