My Story World Continues...

PhotoFunia-1486624999



Some of my readers know that I write in multiple genres. Well, this year I will be rolling out my next two genres:

Christian Romantic SuspenseInspirational International Thrillers

I really cannot say more. Lots of top secret information to be sorted out. Suffice to say that you can see romantic suspense in the current series, and that some of the characters in my current series will appear in future series. They are all connected in the same story worlds.

Be rest assured that I will be revealing more as I work out how to juggle all four genres I write in. The other two are:

Contemporary Christian RomanceChristian Historical Romance

I do know how to handle my Colonial Fiction. I put it on hold because I am still researching some of the materials from the 18th century. I know some of you might be temporarily disappointed, but don���t worry. You can tell a little bit of what I will be writing about if you have read the Savannah Sweethearts and Seaside Chapel series. Clues are there for the curious as those two series are steep in history. I planned them that way.

Meanwhile, check out my current series:

Savannah SweetheartsVacation SweetheartsSeaside Chapel

Seaside Chapel will spin off into Seaside Cottages.

Year of Paperbacks

PhotoFunia-1486625405



This is the year, readers, when all my books will be in paperbacks. For the last two years, all the titles of my series were only available in ebook formats. In December 2016, I rolled out the first paperbacks:

Smile for Me (Vacation Sweethearts Book 1)Love You Always (Savannah Sweethearts Book 6)

In January 2017, two more popped out of the paperback oven:

Share with Me (Seaside Chapel Book 1)Reach for Me (Vacation Sweethearts Book 2)

This month, February 2017, Diego and Heidi get their turn:

Know You More (Savannah Sweethearts Book 1)

Yes, they���re out of order, but eventually, these current series will have paperbacks also in addition to ebooks.

Seaside ChapelSavannah SweetheartsVacation Sweethearts

All the paperbacks are currently available via Amazon, but later on, we���ll make them available at other outlets.

Future series will all have their own paperback equivalents to accompany their ebook counterparts.

Some readers have asked me about audiobooks. That too. Soon, readers. Soon. Stay tuned!

Happy reading!

Joyfully,
Jan
