News From the Fahey Front

First, Happy Birthday to my husband Bob! We've been together thirty-nine years and married for two of them. Whodathunk? Love you, honey! <3

I've been busy here. Wanted to let you know what's been happening and why I haven't been blogging much.

The final installment of my "Lovers and Liars" gay historical romance series comes out end of August. "Kindred Spirit" will be published by JMS Books as an e book on August 30th. The day after, the last two installments in the series, "A Deadly Game of Malice " and "Kindred Spirit,"will appear in the paperback titled, "Lovers and Liars II."

Here's a little about "Kindred Spirit":
"When a bomb explodes near St. Andrew’s Home for Boys, it unearths a skeleton of a young adolescent. As Leslie, Edward, and Robert set about identifying the remains, the shocking discovery stirs up an old antagonism between the two brothers and brings to light a string of repressed memories for Leslie. It rests on Leslie and Edward to track down the remorseless killer of a kindred spirit."

"The Other Man" is now a play and set for workshopping July 28th at Chicago Dramatists. Playwright, Bernard Rice, has adapted three of the essays from our anthology for the stage into a funny, poignant, and lively drama. If you own the book, check out the essays by Rob Byrnes, Lewis DeSimone, and Rodney Ross. If not, "The Other Man" e- book is on sale through the end of July for 30% off at JMS Books.

I've just finished a Christmas novella, "All I Want for Christmas" that'll be out some time during the holidays from JMS Books.

Here's a short description:
"Thinking with his head and not his heart is an occupational hazard for Professor Leland Hansen. The anxiety of losing his teaching position causes a painful breakup with the one true love of his life, Cliff Emerson. When Cliff calls a few weeks before the Christmas holidays to announce he’s getting married, Leland sets out to win him back. Will the couple happily reunite at Christmas?"

I've also been working on a book proposal for a nonfiction anthology titled "Equality." I'm super excited about this project and have a great list of contributors. Here's a little about the book:

"In Equality, twenty-two award-winning and best-selling writers, including Anne Perry, Christopher Bram, Patricia Nell Warren, Michael Nava, Catherine Ryan Hyde, Anne R. Allen, Felice Picano, Barbara Abercrombie, and Victoria Zackheim, take the theme and run with it. These topical, thought-provoking, funny, smart, and thoroughly compelling essays will present equality in ways you never imagined and perhaps guide you to explore further what is professed to be the very foundation of our democracy."

So I guess you can say I've been quite busy. Just wanted to touch base and let you know what I've been up to.

Talk again soon.

The best is yet to come,
