Weekly Notes, March 2, 2015

 Straight from the desk of Alice Brown & Lady V: ​  
   

The fans have spoken and we have heard!   Fans have requested that we release the books within a series a bit closer together, and we have heard your request!  Because of this, we are taking a step back and working on the next two books in the Texas Vampire series, at which time after book four has been released, that series will close.  We will also continue working on the next several Dragons of Dragonose books.

We will not be releasing any new series until early summer (look for something in the mid-June range), but I promise you the wait will be well worth it!  So, what is in the works?  Here is a running list of what we are currently working on:


Up in a Blaze:  Texas Vampire Rangers, 3
Up in a Ball of Fire:  Texas Vampire Rangers 4
Adorellan, Dragons of Dragonose 6
Elijah, Dragons of Dragonose 7
**A very special, secret series that will be launched in June!

Have you seen the cover for Rubinmire, Dragons of Dragonose 5?  The wonderful and talented Jess Buffett has worked her magic yet again!  As of right now, we do not have a set release date on this, but we are anticipating it to be released around mid- to late March.

This just in!!!

A Message from the Paws:  Shadow

Hi everyone!

It snowed here this week!  Honest to goodness snow!  Of course we then had a layer of ice over top of that, which made getting around the back yard rather difficult, but I soon managed!  I just quickly learned if I started to slip, just flop down on my rear, and skate across the yard!  What a blast!  Here's some pics of me playing in the snow!



 
        
 






What's new at JK Publishing week?

Woot-woot!  Look what is coming out Tuesday, March 3!  If you haven't read this amazing series yet by Avery Gale, you are missing out on some great books!  




Have a great week!
