Twelve Dancing Princesses Series.
This series is important to me and has been a project which has taken more time than I could have ever imagined. My youngest daughter did the characterization of the twelve girls that make up the books. She did this when she was in Junior High. She will turned thirty on Friday. I can’t even imagined where the time has gone. Over the years I wrote the first five books. Last fall I began work on the sixth book which will be releases May 22, Gotta Have Fayth. I’m now working on the ninth book and plan to finish this series before the end of the year.
What are you working on?
Preorder now: Gotta Have Fayth
Buy at: Amazon
A regal beauty with raven hair and piercing blue eyes, Fayth Graham is unwilling to parade herself in front of the wealthy Lords of England during the season. Seeking a means to dissuade any man wishing to wed her, she seeks a way to ruin herself for marriage. When she unexpectedly meets a man with sparkling gray eyes and an infectious grin, she decides this is the man who will keep her from agreeing to obey.
He returned from six months at sea, looking for a few nights of pleasure with a willing lass, but Jarret Kinsley got more than he bargained for when he met a beautiful debutant who responded to his kisses with a wild innocence that touched his heart. Yet the obstacles looming between them might rip them apart. Both had vowed never to marry, so when consequences of their dalliances got in the way, Jarret would have to choose between the life he’s always desired and the woman he loves more than life.

I’ve started a new Hugo Miller book. I think each one lets me know more about Hugo and his buddies. I made a decision in the first book that makes writing books about him more difficult than it would otherwise be — all the books are first-person narrative, which means it tells a mystery story basically from a single point of view. So it is a challenge in more ways than one. Also I have tried to make each book (the one I am working is the fourth Hugo book) quite different from the others. So the first book was about a music manuscript that had been lost for centuries and then possibly found — the second is about an investment banker who gets caught up in a whipsaw between gangsters and urban legends like people who live in the subways. The third is about a mixed-race politician who is divorced from his wife and determined to marry another man (who is summarily shot by persons unknown). The new one is about a young theater director who is killed with a brass candlestick as he is directing an off-Broadway production of “Twelfth Night.” His sidekicks are Ruth (an eastside Jewish widow active in lots of charities and a maven of the arts) and Gabriele (a handsome young former sex worker who now owns a tablecloth restaurant in the SoHo area of NYC). Onward and upward! I love this triad of people: Hugo, Ruth & Gabriele.
I’m spending most of my energy on two specific stories.
The first is the fourth in the dragon series, Dragons of the Sand, and will take my mythological creatures into space.
The second is Mage – a hero’s journey. I’m still working on political mystery and the sci-fi Silver Foxes series. Maybe someday I’ll finish them.
I am working on a book that recounts the 1973 motorcycle trip I took with two friends. We were 19 at the time, and we each rode a 350 Yamaha. The 4000 mile journey took us from Nebraska to Phoenix to San Diego to Yosemite to San Francisco to Denver and back to Nebraska!
Awaiting word on acceptance of my second book, but started my third & fourth. My third novel will be about different kinds of families; taking in 6 siblings whose mother is dying and doesn’t want them in foster care; an interracial, his, hers, theirs and our kids family that’s more of a small village than a family; possibly another family made up of LGBTQ people rejected from their bio families. Fourth book will be a collection of fiction and nonfiction short stories.
I got a couple of irons in the fire at the moment. I have been working on the sequel to my last novel, “Serpents and Doves,” with a novel called “…The Evil Thereof.” But I am going to have to set that aside for a bit because I just got the edited version of my novel “Borrowing a Moose Head from Cole Porter,” and it looks like it is going to take some work. That’s OK. Keeps me off the streets.
Moving along with my mystery/suspense/ science fiction novel Whispers of Death. I changed direction in my novel, opening it up to a new antagonist and threat to my protagonists, My protagonist have three different powers: super sense of smell similar to a dog; another sees a yellow halo encompassing a person who will encounter a life-threatening event within 24 hours; the third has visions of people dying and objects appearing in his mind that could be friendly or harmful to him. I’ve started another mystery/suspense short story about strange happenings in a retirement community where residents are suddenly going missing.
Waiting for my 5th book, a mystery/suspense novel, Strange to be published June 15, 2018 by Rogue Phoenix Press.
