It’s been a long time since I published a book. You guys who have been waiting patiently know that. And I’m sorry you didn’t get the next MMC book when I said you would. But as you might be able to tell from the (very much draft quality) new cover over there to your left, there is nothing stopping me now!

The final book in the Maid, Mother, and Crone series should have been released three years ago. I apologize to those of you who are still waiting for it. It is not the next book, but having worked out some problems with the story, I am now ready to begin writing it in a few months. I miss Natalie and the gang! But I wanted to make sure that the final story did them justice. Now I know that it will; be sure to keep an eye out for “The Bloodied Bride” in the fall.

However, before that happens, I hope some of you are interested in meeting Stheno Tanith, Gorgon P.I., and her merry band of misfits as they investigate paranormal (and not so paranormal) mysteries in small town Ohio. The stories are darker and a little more violent than you may be used to from a Nojack novel, but they are again peopled with the same kind of diverse, quirky characters you have come to expect in my stories. The first three novels are already written and in the editing process. I will be making them available on preorder in about a month.

If you want to be notified when the next book comes out, just choose the Newsletter link from the site menu and send me your email address. I won’t bombard you with mail! I mean, I write a blog entry every two or three years, right? I am definitely not a pesterer. But you will be in the first group of people to know when a new books drops.

Thanks for hanging in there with me. I would have been writing if I could.
