Release date for Colonel Fitzwilliam
Hi everybody,
Thanks so much for reading my books and my blog, anemic as it is. Whenever I sit down at the computer, no matter with what intent, I always end up working on the novels instead of the blog. That’s why so much of it is excerpts.
But, the real news is that the book, Colonel Fitzwilliam and the Countess of Sainte Toulours is finished, and will be released through Amazon on November 6th; available for Kindle pre-release purchase now. I really hope you like it. Every time I do this, about this point in the process I fall prey to the belief that I suck as a writer and the book is worthless; the feeling stays with me until I start getting reviews. It is such an act of hubris to publish a book, when so many truly great authors have left us their work for comparison. I’m clinging to the fact that you liked Darcy’s Tale, even though I felt the same way about it.
Have a great day,
Stan

Looking forward to the new book! Erase all those thoughts of suckiness; you are terrific.
Joreen and Abigail,Thanks so much for the vote of confidence! It helps, really; but I've still got my fingers crossed. It will be reviewed by Melissa, Janet, and Ceri at the end of the month, and I will also do a posting about it with Meredith the last week of Oct., so I guess then we'll know.
Best,
Stan
LOL. Just when I was wondering what I would read over Thanksgiving Break.......looking forward to it!
I, too, will grab this up a.s.a.p. I did read and enjoyed the excerpt. Kindle ready today - Huzzah!

This blog will mostly serve the needs of my fans (and therefore is likely to be very malnourished). But, having only recently been introduced to bloggery, and being already somewhat addicted, I hope i

Oh, what fabulous news! I can't wait for it! I just sent you a Goodreads message not even half an hour ago asking about this very thing. I most certainly will be pre-ordering this book...and I promise to write a review that hopefully you will also appreciate.
Cheers,
