Fairytale's Christmas.......

-

 

This is NOT the cover but I did think it was cute.

Here's what the story will be about. Jack Frost is missing. There's a dragon, keeping him so winter won't come. Maria, Nemoy, and their friends go on an adventure to save him, and guess what? Santa is going to help! 

I'd love to have something like this as a cover but with a dragon wrapped around the Christmas tree, somehow. I'm not sure if that would work or be too scary for the kiddos. I'll be talking to my designer when I get closer to writing the book. I don't want something complicated. It needs to be fun like the first cover was.

So the book will be released sometime in early December 2021. It is next to be written. I just have to get through Murder Through Time. While the Beta readers are looking it over, I'll begin writing the story. Should be around August when that happens, maybe before. I like having a deadline because it has been helping me stay motivated and keep writing. I wasn't like that before lol.

Before, I was trying to write several books at the same time. If I got stuck on one book, I'd just turn to another book and proceed from where I left off. The problem was, I had too many going on at once and none of them were reaching the end. So I decided to focus on one book, write through to the end, edit, and then move to the next book. It has been so much better! I'm writing faster and with fewer blocks lol. I'm still thinking about other books along the way but I am keeping them straight in my head lol. And I've been playing around with cover designs along the way to give me an idea of what I'm wanting for each book. I'm getting better at that!

But Fairytale's Christmas is the last book I'm planning on writing for this year. I may be working on it for NaNo this year. That sure did help me last year. When it gets closer to the end of the year, I'll be sharing the run-down for next year's line-up. And I will be having a vote for the 4th book to be written so that'll be fun! Anyway, that's it for today's post. Happy April Fool's Day and Happy Easter!!

New Changes, Updated Website

  Link to Website I have many new changes to report. I have fully updated my website. The link is above. This is a screenshot of the top of the homepage. The top section will be changed when I am closer to releasing each new book when I have pre-orders available. So that's pretty cool. I have added a few new things to the site. I decided to check out other authors' pages and was inspired by one of my favorite authors, Stephen King. Of course, I don't have nearly as many books as he does so my pages are different but the ideas for design and some of the information were inspired by what was on his site. For instance, I now have FAQ information on my site. I will be adding to it as time permits. It can be found on the "about" page. His page was separate and the cool feature that he had on his page (dropdown) answers to the questions couldn't be repeated on my page. Still trying to figure that part out lol. I liked the area where he had a mini-menu for some of th...

The next book, coming this fall

Benjamin was abused most of his life. Upon his mother's death bed, she tells him a secret that sends him on a no-return journey--he was adopted. He hires a PI, only to find out that his biological mother has also passed away but the PI learns she had another son. Benjamin leaves his small town to head to New York to meet his brother for the first time. When he sees his twin brother, Benjamin snaps. He becomes something else--a killer. Will Benjamin be his own destruction? Will his brother's ghost be the hand that pushes him over the edge? This is a Paranormal Thriller. If you read Stolen Identity under my original pen name (Amber Rigby Grosjean) then you already know the story. This one is slightly different and without the naughty scenes which means anyone is able to read it. This will be the first book in the series Identity Collection. Reader beware: there are some intense scenes (murder).

  Hello, everyone. I have a treat for you today. I interviewed an awesome author. Her name is C. Phillip. I've had her and her books in my newsletters so I had to come up with some new questions to ask her lol. So here they are. I hope you enjoy her answers and give her books a try! They are awesome! Please tell me about your books. I noticed you have 2 more on your website. Please tell us what they are all about. The Last Nautch Girl is my self-published debut novel. It's Book 1 in my historical fiction and murder mystery series, set in different cities of colonial India, featuring Indian classical dancers, British investigators, vigilante justice, serial killers, diabolic villains & much more. It follows the story of Mrinalini, a native ex-dancer in Kolkatta, who is secretly providing shelter in her home to five young men accused of the murder of Major Harold Armitage. Fiercely patriotic and hot-blooded, the men regard Mrinalini as “Didi” and trust in her completely while...
