I’ve only got a few more scenes to add and Dark Star will be finished. Then I’ll let it sit for a minute while I work on something else. I like to do that when I have time, letting a book marinate brings out all kinds of new ideas. This is especially true if I work on something else in the interim. Like right now I’m working on Dark Star, my next book, Diamonds on the River is driving me insane. When I come back to Dark Star I’ll be able to see all those typos and grammatical errors as well. For some reason, editing yourself is darned near impossible. Lisa will be editing this one for me, and she’s absolutely brutal, so I have to write clean or she’ll hurt my feelings.
I’m going to try my hand at self-publishing with Dark Star. A lot of my friends have encouraged it and I’d like to see how it turns out. I had wanted to get it out by Christmas as a gift to my fans, but I don’t know if that will be feasible. Maybe it’ll make a lovely Valentine’s Day present instead. Whit is designing an absolutely gorgeous cover that I can’t wait to share with y’all.
Can you give us a hint as to what the new book will be about. Diamonds on the River. So I can look forward to it. Thanks …
Carolyn
Thanks for asking Carolyn. I can’t believe I left that out. DOTR is about a woman who is a very successful financial advisor. Her brother, who she’s in business with has been running a Ponzi scheme and has made off with the money. Now she has to go to an old flame to get help getting the money back and finding her brother.
I’ll be waiting. I’ve re-read Let’s do it again, Given twice. Loaned Rock Star to a friend and now she’s begging for the others. I’ll lend her one more, but told her I am not a library.
Thank you so much Spring, especially thanks for loaning it to a friend. I’m so glad both of you enjoyed them.
