Hi Emily,

Thanks so much for your kind words! I'm so glad you enjoyed Vicky's story. Let's see, to answer your question, yes, I do have a sequel planned, however, I'm working on another historical right now, which will be out winter 2016. This one is a mid-Victorian about a girl who hunts rare orchids with her father. So I'm busy researching and writing that one.

At the moment my plan for the sequel to A Mad, Wicked Folly will feature Charlotte, Vicky's niece, during WWI with Vicky and Will playing supporting roles! : )

Best,
Sharon

My New Kindle Vella Story, Betwixt and Between

I’m on a new publishing adventure! Amazon launched a new reader experience in 2022 called Kindle Vella. It works like this: authors upload up to a 5,000 word episode on the network and readers pay tokens to read each one. I’ve been working on a retelling of Brigadoon called Betwixt and Between, and I thought Kindle Vella would be the perfect way to introduce Fiona and Tommy’s timeless story to the

“I'm a Lost Witch. Are you a Lost Witch too?”
Suzanne Palmieri, The Witch of Little Italy

“The truth is, time marches on and you have two choices: You move forward, come what may, and you experience all the sour and sweet things that fly at you from around corners, or you sit still. Don't sit still.”
Suzanne Palmieri, The Witch of Little Italy
