Blame the muse...

Deep breath, do not panic. Darcy's story is definitely next. I am totally confirming that Book 12 - To Handle A Hellcat - is a go, to be published mid year.

However. You know how I said Elijah and Copper's story would be book 13 - To Goad A Goddess... um, see, there's been a change of plans. First, I did not lie. I intended to tell Elijah's story next but my Muse had other plans.
This idea surfaced and it just would not leave me alone - rather like a post-it-note sicked on me by an Air Mage. What about all the singles left behind when Great-Aunt Alma took off on her sabbatical?
No one knew at the time she was going to be gone for twenty-two years. So what about the generation that got screwed?

What about Patricia Bennett, Head Librarian?

I'd hinted at her love interest in Book 6 - To Date A Disaster, where she clashed with Lester Cullen who she believes is stealing her library books. They are so at odds she took him to court - which kind of backfired when his potting shed was declared an official Library Annexe.

And the more I kind of played with the idea of Patricia's story - the more I realised that it deserved to be told. Not only that - it fits in perfectly with the timeline.

Already have a few elements circling - the God of Chaos , Apep, is awake and of course wants to meet his long-lost descendent, Cara. So expect more disasters to occur at the library.
The babies are growing, fast. So we will be catching up with their progress.
Cullen has a murky past that has followed him to the Sanctuary and danger will abound.
And I may even call the cats up for some action. At the very least the interfering Great-Great-Aunts will do what they do best.

Being six foot in height, Patricia has always fancied the idea of a TALL Warrior sweeping her off her feet.
Cullen, at only five-eight, is going to have his work cut out convincing Patricia that he is her perfect match.

Have only just started, and I'm going to be seriously busy as I am in the process of selling my house - but I can see the vague shape of where the story is going to go - should be fun.
I'll be dropping more hints regarding the story via twitter as the writing progresses. Follow me there - JCousins_Author (or just search on my name and my gorgeous mug will pop up) - if you want to stay up to date with all the madness.

Happy Reading
