Good morning!
I have a thirteen features and news stories to share with you and a couple more not yet posted. So do check back on The Herald-News site: shawlocal.com/the-herald-news.
Please send up good thoughts/prayers and so on for Rebekah. She's been seeing specialists and undergoing tests since August. Every abnormal test means more tests, which is really kicking up her anxiety. She's also working odd hours through all of us this, and she's already tired from not feeling well. We see another specialist today. Hopefully we are close to getting some answers.
Rebekah is the behind-the-scenes driver of the BryonySeries. She oversees its all its financial aspects, handles all book production, manages two social media accounts, and is the go-to person at events. Plus, she's a wonderful person. We need her to feel much better soon.
WriteOn Joliet's sixth anthology is live and you can buy it here on Amazon. Or you can purchase it on Dec. 8 at WriteOn Joliet's annual anthology release party, which will be held at the Joliet Public Library, one of our community partners. Details are here.
One the fiction side of things, two of the three books in the new "Girls of the BryonySeries" subseries I plan to officially release at WriteOn Joliet's anthology release party on December 8 are now available online on Amazon.
These are Julie and the Too-Hard Homework and Summer Sisters; I should have copies to sell by this weekend. A third, Katie and the Big Fear, is currently in review.
Jennifer Wainright (frontispiece artist for Lycanthropic Summer) has completed three portraits for "Girls of the BryonySeries" series for tween girls and is currently working on a fourth. The portraits are beautiful and it shows that artist Jennifer Wainright can draw anything from werewolves to portraits!
I'm also currently working on a new Adventures of Cornell Dyer story: Cornell Dyer and the Hounds of Basketville. You can find other titles in the series here. Timothy has not yet added our latest titles to the BryonySeries bookstore. But all titles are also on Amazon.
Next up in the series: a Sherlock Holmes parody (the main character is Sherman Homes), which has a solid outline. Sue Midlock is already working on the cover and the interior art: Sherman Homes and the Howls of Basketville.
And we also released Call of the Siren (the second book in the BryonySeries Limbo trilogy, with gorgeous cover art by Nancy Calkins). It, too, is not available in the BryonySeries bookstore yet, or on Kindle yet, but it is available on Amazon.
I'm currently outlining the final book in the BryonySeries Limbo trilogy: House on Top of the Hill.
And I'm also working on a guide book to the series called: Welcome to Munsonville: the People, Places, and Things of the BryonySeries.
And I'm also working on a novella. But I'm not sharing any details yet. Well, I did share a few details with Ed last night. But only because he brought up a certain character.
Rebekah is also slowly updating the BryonySeries YouTube and Pinterest accounts, so watch for those.
Now back to the 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!
