What Happened to Summer?

I was so busy this summer with the day-gig thing and some upcoming book projects that the time and warm weather slipped away from me.

What did you do on your summer vacation? I wrote a lot of recommendations and proposals and did a boatload of end-of-year performance reviews. I also wrote two short stories for two anthology projects, and I completed two novels. They are the sixth book in the Jules Keene Glamping series and the second one in the Pearly Girls Mystery series. (And as of this morning, I’m almost at the half-way point for the third Pearly Girls one.)

I’m gearing up for some book launches, too. Christmas Lights and Catfights comes out in October. That’s the third in the Jules Keene series. The second in the Mermaid Bay Christmas Shoppe Mysteries, Twinkle Twinkle Au Revoir drops in January. And the brand new Pearly Girls Mystery launches in the spring. It’s called Murder Strikes a Chord.

What have you been up to? I’ve got a lot of fall events scheduled, and I think I may need to plan an autumn vacation.
