Hi, Linda. They are in ebooks now, all but The Cowboy and The Cradle, which I will self-publish when I can. I'm so glad you like them. The creation of them is quite a story in itself: From the first, I designed the outlines, all 5 of the first, the legends, and designed the genealogy table. My editors had never seen anything like that. Shocked. Usually, books are added as I did after the first 5. :)

Spend time learning the basics of writing. Work on your strengths and go for those. Study the genre you want, the length, etc. Study plotting and hooks and all that stuff. Read my blog's how-to's at http://caitlondon.blogspot.com

Building new lives and worlds, and helping characters work out their problems. I love the intricacies, the subplotting, and it's like some kind of creative game to me.

There is no such thing. That is a myth that can swallow writers who believe in it.

I am writing the third of my Basket Series Trilogy, tentatively titled The Moses Basket. But I am also updating promotion, covers, etc. And setting up promotion for The Egg Basket, #2 in the series.

I've never worried about that, the stories just come, all sorts of stories. I think most writers blink and are inspired. And my father was a verbal story teller, so maybe some of that is inherited? I don't know, but lack of time to get my stories out is all I worry about, not how to get them. They just fall into my brain/fingers. :)

My upcoming book is the 2nd of Cait's Basket Series, title: The Egg Basket. The first of the trilogy is The Basket Maker's Wife, so naturally one of the 3 main women involved needed to be spotlighted--That would be Nora in The Basket Maker's Wife and Lynn in The Egg Basket, a May 2016 release. They are women tied together by more than blood.
