NEW YEAR NEW NOVEL!

Hello friends!

If you haven't been directly connected to my life lately, that's my fault! I've been finishing up my fourth and final Nora Hill novel.

FINALLY I'm able to announce the release of my 9th novel and my 14th book overall,  FREED ON THE FOX!   "Freed" completes the four book NORA HILL MYSTERIES, and I'm quite excited about how this one turned out. I've never completed a book series before.  (Oh, does this mean there might be a NEW Rock Harbor Chronicles novel on the way???? MAYBE....) So this fourth Nora book, for me, was a new experience all the way around.  I finally understand what "Breaking Bad" writer, Vince Gilligan, felt when he wrote the final season of that brilliant series.  (Not that I'm comparing my inspirational cozy mysteries to that gritty crime drama!  LOL)  I now understand what it is to say good-bye to characters I've been with for several years.  I also know what it's like to lock myself in a room and cry and write and cry and write until it's done.

Hopefully this means I'll be able to blog here a bit more often, discussing the writing life.

I will say this, the weekend of May 4th is going to be busy. I'll have my big unveiling of "Freed on the Fox" at the Waukesha Farmer's Market.  I know that seems like an odd place to launch a book, but the city of Waukesha, the Downtown Business District, has been good to me, and to all local and e-pubbed authors.  They are my home when it comes to book sales every year.  I love those folks!  Also, I'll be doing a personal appearance that weekend as well.

Wait, an author that does personal appearances?  Oh yeah!  School groups, church groups, women's groups, (in May I'll be doing a talk on motherhood for a nursing home group), book clubs.  Get a handful of people together, pick a topic, and I'll come over and entertain!  (I'll also sign and sell books!)  You can reach me via email at momauthor@aol.com OR on facebook at SJB books.

Meanwhile, enjoy the final installment of Nora Hill!
