I've been married for over fifty years to a terrific man who puts up with the idiosyncrasies of life with an author. The adult kids we've raised are tolerant, though our daughter did mention catching her 18 year old son reading Wolf Tales to a female friend...well, they ARE adults, right? I’m no longer with a NY publisher—after almost two years of health issues and a move across the state, my writing hit a major glitch with my first ever case of writer’s block. I now know for sure it’s NOT a myth. However, I finally finished DARK STRANGER, the seventh book in my SPIRIT WILD series, introduced as a spinoff from WOLF TALES—stories that tell the tales of the children born to Chanku parents, growing up in a world that knows they exist. It's hard to leave a world of your own creation, and I have missed my Chanku! FWIW, Anton is still just as bossy as ever, though he has begun to mellow just a bit if you pay close attention... Now I’m planning to spend time bringing out the titles I’ve gotten the rights back to—DREAM CATCHERS, the erotic S/F series that was marketed as paranormal and irritated the paranormal readers no end, and was totally missed by those readers who like science fiction and fantasy, my DEMONSLAYERS series, straight paranormal stories that made my readers who like the hot stuff really angry, and then there’s STARQUEST, the science fiction romance series that was my first toe dipped in the erotic anything pool. If you haven’t read the five novella length stories along with the final short story that ended the series, I think you’ll enjoy them. I'm hoping to get a newsletter out as it’s been a while, and I do apologize, but sometimes life just gets in the way. I am no longer on Twitter as I finally got way too disgusted with the politics. I turned 73 this month and am definitely thinking about retiring. Unlike my friend Anne McCaffery, a woman and author I still miss terribly, who wrote until the day before she passed on November 21, 2011 at the age of 85. I still miss her emails--she had a wonderful sense of humor and was a powerful author in a genre that did not easily welcome the female gender.
