BOOK 5 - Completed!
Look what I just typed!
After well over a year of brainstorming and writing, 386 pages later, the rough draft of Book 5 is complete!
Next, I'll read over and edit it (more than once), conduct some additional research, then offer it to my publisher. No idea when the book will be released -- too early to tell. But let's hope it's sometime in 2020!
Thanks to everyone for their patience while I worked on this book. I've got a full-time teaching job that keeps me busy, so I can only write on the occasional weekends, holidays, and summer!
I'll post updates here as we get closer to the publishing process.

I Officially Have "A Collection!"
My publisher has just announced the upcoming release date of March 26th for "The Chilton Crosse Collection." I'm thrilled! This collection will contain the first three novels in my series.
My favorite part about this announcement is the "#1" in the title, which indicates there are MORE to come. I'm currently hard at work on Book 5 in the series, and I have strong ideas for others.
Thanks to everyone for their ongoing support!
Here's the beautiful cover:

Kindle SALE and Other News
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
My publisher has put my Christmas novel on sale for .99 -- Dec 1-4, Kindle version.

In other news, I'm hard at work on Book 5 in the Chilton Crosse series. It introduces readers to two new characters who have strong ties to the village (and to each other!). I'm hoping the book will be released in late 2019, but there's no firm timeline on it yet. I'll be sure to post updates on this page.
Happy Holidays, everyone!
