Quick Update on What's Next

I absolutely can’t wait for you to read the sequel to THE THINKING WOMAN’S GUIDE TO REAL MAGIC.

From the social media messages and emails I’ve received, I know a lot of you can’t wait, either. Here’s a quick update: Over the past year I’ve revised the sequel further, I’ve gotten great feedback on it, and now I'm working on bringing it to you.

Thanks so much to everyone who’s asked me about the progress of Book 2! It’s inspiring to know that you care about Nora, Aruendiel, and the rest of the characters as much I do. I’ll let you know as soon as I have some more news to share.

message 9: by Kristi (new)

Kristi Russell If you fail to find a publisher, I am betting you can get the funds to self-publish via kickstarter or something similar. Just saying!

Kristy M. Yay! I'm so happy. I listened to TTWGTRM in my car and found myself sitting in my car, just listening, instead of getting out and going into stores, my home, my job...

Ooh, I need to try the audiobook! Is the narrator good?


message 13: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Macdonald thank you. I can hardy wait. It sure can not be that hard finding a publisher for your second book. What was wrong with the first publisher? Are they nuts? They should jump right on this.

DeB As soon as I know you have a publisher for Book 2, I hope Book 1 has another printing! A fabulous created world... one of the best I’ve read.


message 30: by Katie (new)

Katie Call I commend you all for waiting so long. I just finished the audio of the first book- which was overy 24 hours long. I loved the book so much- I played it nearly constantly and finished the whole thing in about three days.

I was doing dishes when it was just... abruptly over. It felt like there was SO much more to be said. I jumped on google immediately and have been relieved to see that my wait probably won't be that long. :p

I definitely won't be waiting for an audio, though. I'm grabbing this one to savor as soon as it is hot off the press.


message 31: by Leah (new)

Leah Hart I am another of the lucky who just read the first book. Literally just finished it at 2:30 a.m. and had to come to the internet for help dealing with the ending.

So glad to find that there is a sequel pending, and this excerpt relieved the aching of betrayal in my stomach from being stranded in the abyss. QQ

I'll be getting my hands on the next as soon as it's available.


message 32: by Amber ☾♥ (new)

Amber ☾♥ I'm so happy to see this update! It's been SO long! I read book one a few years back when I had just rediscovered my love of reading and it was such a breath of fresh air.

I'm going to be glued to your page waiting for more updates! Lol


message 33: by Freedom (new)

Freedom When I click on the blog post it's telling me it doesn't exist >.< Soooo, when is the sequel coming out? I AM SO READY!


message 34: by Crystal (new)

 Crystal I loved the first book--can't wait for the second!


message 35: by Beth (new)

Beth Hooray! Sending good vibes your way for easy, happy editing and finalizing. Can't wait.


Ƹ̴Ӂ̴Ʒ Jenn Ƹ̴Ӂ̴Ʒ Schu Enjoyed the first one, looking forward to the sequel!


message 37: by Anastasia (new)

message 39: by Clare (new)

message 42: by Alek (new)

Alek Any news? Anyone?


message 43: by J (new)

J Sequel release date?


message 44: by Kristi (new)

Kristi Russell This is torture. I've reread book 1 three times just to squeeze more wnjoyment out of it while waiting for the sequel.

Any chance there is a date set yet? I'm dying here.


message 45: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Macdonald Kristi I am with you. I would have thought it would have been out for christmas. I wonder how many rewrites there were or corrections that had to be made. Or maybe a flu bug got her and was ill for a bit. Hard to say BUT the waiting is terrible. If anyone knows ANYTHING about a possible release date PLEASE say something.


message 46: by Sharon (new)

Sharon I've read the book twice and just finished listening to the audiobook. I wish I knew when book 2 was going to be out. I love this story so much and cannot wait to see what happens next. Hoping we'll see it sometime this year!


message 47: by Sarita (new)

Sarita Any updates on book release #2??


message 48: by Deborah (new)

Deborah Gray Anything worthwhile is worth waiting for!


message 49: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Macdonald Do you think the updated version will be ready by May?
I already have reread the first book many many times.
I am so tired of waiting.
But I will continue to do so.
Does anyone know anything?
Maybe an update for Emily would help.
I sure would love it.


message 50: by Chloe (new)

Chloe Willett Could we get another update! Its been almost a year since the last one! I just finished rereading the book and full of rejuvenized enthusiasm!
