Hello, Again

Hi! Just a few minutes ago I had to look at my phone to figure out whether it was Wednesday or Thursday. That can mean only one thing-I’ve been buried in a book. Today I handed the second draft off of Deception at Copper Hill to a dear friend who is my Beta Reader. She reads my whole book before I turn it into my editors and offers suggestions. Now that she has it for a few days, I can take a deep breath and get organized!

Deception at Copper Hill (working title) is the sequel to Secrets of Sloane House, my 1893 Chicago Mystery that will be published at the end of July. When I saw my Amish friend last week, (she was in town seeing a girlfriend of hers) I gave her an advanced copy of Sloane House. I just received a letter from her, saying that she read it the entire bus ride back to Sugarcreek and that she loved it! That makes me really happy.

Thank you to all of you who take the time to follow my here and on Facebook. I’m grateful for each and every one of you!

Wishing you many blessings today.

Shelley
