Book Updates

Filed in: blog   

First, THANK YOU to everyone who entered the Autumn’s Promise drawing! I loved hearing about what characters you liked and I loved reconnecting with so many readers who have really become my online friends.

This past weekend, two ladies who won the books had time to actually read Autumn’s Promise (thank you, thank you!) and wrote to tell me what they thought. I don’t want to give anything away, but here are two quotes (with their permission) 

I just finished Autumn’s Promise. I could not put it down I enjoyed it so much.

I could not go to bed last night until I finished the book.

YAY! Talk about being relieved. I really do get nervous when a book releases!

Autumn’s Promise will hit the bookstore shelves Next Week, on August 3rd.

In other book news,  I finished revisions on The Caregiver, which will be released in March, 2011, and I’m currently writing The Protector, release date still to be determined.

Finally, I am Happy To Announce  that I sold a historical western series to Abingdon Press. I’ll be writing for them as ‘Shelley Gray’. I *think* the series is called Texas Heroes. The First Book is titled “The Texan’s Promise’ and will be released in November, 2011. These books all are set in Texas and Colorado, and take place just after the Civil War. They’re inspirational, too, and I’m very excited about the opportunity. As of right now, I’ll only be publishing one of these books a year. 

Of course I plan to keep writing Amish Romances for Avon Inspire as long as my publisher wants me! 

Well, that’s the book news for now! Currently, the wonderful publicist at Harper Collins is helping me set up some book signings~including visits to Lancaster, Sugarcreek, and Middlefield. As soon as everything is set up, I’ll post that information.

Happy Monday!
