June 2020 Newsletter - Susan Hoddy
Hello and Welcome to my June 2020 Newsletter
What I Have Been Working On:-
I have finally finished doing the chapter recount and recorded more information on each character for all three books in the Lepidoptera Vampire Series. Again I am surprised at just how much information I have gathered on each of the characters so far. Am so glad I started this journey as it will help me write the next book in the series.
What's Happening In 2020:-
This year my plan is to focus on writing & editing and then self publishing the fourth and final book in the series called 'Crestwell' The Lepidoptera Vampires. Currently my WIP is sitting at 95,777 words and more to come. Am on a roll here and excited to be writing/editing again.
Readings/Discussions/Signings:-
If any libraries, schools, book stores or book clubs would like me to come along and do a reading of some the chapters and/or a discussion about my books to their group of passionate readers, from either Attraction, Awakened or Affirmation, or Security please don’t hesitate to contact me via my website and fill in the contact form. Readings/Discussions/Signings are done by appointment only.
What series have I been watching lately:-
Currently, I have been watching all of these series:-
Harry Potter
Big Brother Australia
Arrow
NCIS
NCIS Miami
NCIS Los Angelas
NCIS New Orleans
What have I been doing lately:-
Recently, my husband and I took a road trip to Big Bell in WA, to erect some historical signs in memory of his late family. Big Bell Ghost Town, was once a hive of activity when the Big Bell Mine was in operation in the early 1900's. The town of Big Bell was established in 1936 with the opening of the Big Bell Gold Mine. The town and mine thrived for almost 20 years before finally closing its doors in 1955. Big Bell Ghost Town is a 15 minute drive west of the remote town of Cue, which is a seven hour drive north of Perth.
Whist we were there, we also caught up for a cuppa with Morrie and Kerry Seivwright who have lived out at Glen Station for the past 45 years. My husband used to work with Morrie over 20 years ago at Poona Gold Mine (operated by Ridolfo) and was thrilled to be able to catch up again.
What have I been reading lately:-
I have just finished reading 'Her Mothers Secret' by Natasha Lester. I have really enjoying the story line. This was a real page turner, and I couldn't put it down. I loved the characters in this book and with every page I read, it made me want to turn the pages quicker, just to see where the story was going. Definitely a recommended read.

I am currently reading 'Rules Of Prey' by John Sandford, Its about:-
The "maddog" murderer who is terrorizing the Twin Cities is two things: insane and extremely intelligent. He kills for the pleasure of it and thoroughly enjoys placing elaborate obstacles to keep police befuddled. Each clever move he makes is another point of pride. But when the brilliant Lieutenant Lucas Davenport--a dedicated cop and a serial killer's worst nightmare--is brought in to take up the investigation, the maddog suddenly has an adversary worthy of his genius.
