Happy New Year to you too. I'll be pulling for you to keep both resolutions (but especially the latter!).

For some reason, it's just so ungainly and sprawling at the moment, I can't get my hands around it. But I'm going to wrestle the thing to the ground and make it behave. Then I'll publish (the book, not just a banana).
Miranda, I am with you all the way!!! Please hurry, I need Lord Seelye's story to make my 2015!!!!!

How are your resolutions coming along? Especially the next story? Good luck and good writing.

Once I've got that down, I do about 5 months of editing, fact checking, etc. So it's coming along, thank you for asking. I need a kick in the butt every so often to keep up the pace.
Read any great books lately? I'm hoping for Regency reads that aren't the blockbusters by the usual suspects. Every suggestion is welcome…I don't have time to search right now.
Oh, I'm making smoothies out of green things (mulch) and fruit, so I'm doing better that way, too.The Vitamix is a wonder tool.

If I could make a suggestion for Regency reads - Megan Bryce's series of short stories is terrific (and her modern books just as good). Start with To Wed the Widow. And The Last Bachelor (Bettina Krahn) isn't too bad either.
I rated Megan Bryce a 5 in my personal system also. Alyssa Alexander, In Bed with a Spy. I look at your Amazon reviews. I wish that I could help you! I wish you good writing!
Have you read Ellen O'Connell? She writes Westerns which is not my favorite genre but her books are fabulous!

Saving them for a post-self-publishing binge. Thanks for reminding me of them, though!

Some readers thought the heroine was unlikable, but I thought she was rather true to the age.
Alyssa Everett's An Heir of Uncertainty was one of my 2014 favorites.
I don't know if you consider them the "usual suspects," but that's all I've got.
It's GREAT to hear that you're writing again.
Sharon Cullen, His Saving Grace. Hero has brain injury. I'm 55 and have a LOT of the same problems he has! I really enjoyed this book. It's a little dark though.
So the thing is
Every so often author Miranda Davis will get a little something off her chest. She's not a ranter, don't worry. Just wants to discuss reading and writing and what not.
