I’ve Finished Writing BEES…!
I’ve finished writing GO TELL THE BEES THAT I AM GONE, as of March 27, 2021! Now this new book enters the publication process, outlined below, which will likely take months.
Note that I do not set the publication date, the day when you can buy the book at a bookstore. That date will be decided by my publishers. Please stay tuned!
What Finished Means To An Author
As my husband often remarks, "‘FINISHED’ is a relative term to a writer."
This is true! I thought y’all might be interested in Ju...

Am listening to sountracks of past seasons, re-reading books, awaiting next book.......needless to say i am so excited to read Bees when it comes out.
I really appreciate the amount of work and energy that go into these books. This is my most anticipated release this year and I cannot wait!
So good... can't wait! It is really the last one??
Congratulations!!! Cannot wait to read Bees,,,!!!
Congratulations on another masterpiece!
Congratulations! Break out the wine! Or is champagne more appropriate?
My hope for The Winds of Winter and The Doors of Stone is resurrected!
Awesome!! Congratulations and looking forward to read it!!
Awesome!!!! I cannot wait. Maybe by the time I reread the last 2 i'll have this one in hand to start!
OMG, so so happy to hear! It cannot be published soon enough!!
Cannot wait!!! Although I may start the whole series again this summer in preparation! It's been a while and I LOVE those books!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This is the BEST news I've had in...seems like years! In 2015 I finally broke down and bought a Kindle so I could more easily carry my Outlander books everywhere, they were my first ebook purchases. Hardbacks, paperbacks, ebooks, videos, and music - Jamie and Claire are my favorite literary characters. I love their love story, and their extended family members and friends. Diana Gabaldon has given her fans these beautiful gifts to enjoy and I am so appreciative! Thank you for your hard work and dedication! 👉❤👈Update on 04/15/21: My Christmas presents to myself were pre-ordered today, hardback and ebook, can't wait! And such a classically beautiful cover! Love the colors. It's been a long wait but Ms Gabaldon never disappoints. Yes, the books are my favorite Outlander versions, but I appreciate every part of the storyline. The Jamie and Claire in my mind's eye look different than Sam and Caitrona, but it's the story that matters most! 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Congratulations, Diana!! That is such an accomplishment! I can't wait to read it and find out what is next for Jaime and Claire! I have so enjoyed this series - thank you, and Bless your Imagination!!
So happy for you and the rest of Outlander nation. Bee well. :-)
Soooo Fall 2022 publication date! Alright! It definitely won't be this year. Too much work happens *after* the writing is finished. lol. Editing!

She has systemically written each novel over 5-7 years and has consistently issued updates and excerpts on Facebook. My confidence in her writing has never wavered but I have no faith left for Martin or Rothfuss.
This is such great news!! I’m re-reading the series and am just amazed and captivated like I was the first time I read the books. Congratulations on this step of the process-
I decided to read the Outlander series for the first time during lockdown last March. So excited to continue to read the series!
I can't wait to read it.I read the Outlander series after the first two seasons of the TV show.I finished reading the whole series in about two years so I just need to read this one.I prefer the books to the show as the TV show has a complete different story.
Boy I didn't know all of the work that goes into getting your book published and into our hands to read.Thank you so much for Claire, Jaime, Family, and friends, I do enjoy reading your books, I can wait for this book to add to the rest of books.
Thank you
Nancy
"Like" doesn't even begin to describe how happy I am!!!!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I cannot wait to read it! I've been looking forward to this for months!
This is the Beesttt, 🐝Birthday Day News I have ever received! 💝Thanks for all your hard, diligent but undoubtedly, pleasurable work. You entertain, inspire, motivate and challenge us in so many ways through your Writings and the thoughts you shared, across the various Social Media. Knowing Jaime, Claire, all their family, extended family, friends and FANS, add a bit more sparkle to each of my days. Thank you Diana. You are a Genius!!!💕
I am so excited!! I am sure you you are happy to have one more at the publisher. I hope we have it before the end of the year!!
This announcement will give me time. Everytime a new book comes out I go back and read all of the books, from the Beginning to the new End. Love the series
I convinced my 80-year-old mother to start reading Outlander during quarantine. She was hesitant because she didn’t think she would be able to plow through eight books. When she finished a couple of months ago, she kept asking me when the next book is due. She is determined to live long enough to reach the very end of the series.
Thank you for writing such an immersive series that enabled many of us to escape lock down for a while. You kept many of us sane.
My mother said to tell you she appreciates you.
Omg I cannot wait for this. Congratulations on you for finishing the book. I’m so looking forward to reading it. Xx
Thank you! What a treasure of a gift to be able to give to so many people. I can't wait to visit with Jamie and Claire again, and see what they've been up to!
Most excellent news!! Yea I hear you; breathing...
