MID MAY UPDATE

Yes I am a bit late. I have been very busy with writing, meetings and annual medical appointments.  Now for the updates.

As those who follow me know, I did a free download for two of my children's e-books.  It didn't go as well as I had hoped.  All the children's books will be in Kindle Unlimited for the next 90 days and them I am going to remove the e-book copies but the paperbacks will still be available for purchase.  I think more children prefer to have the book, paperback, in hand to read and carry around so that is were I will go with from now on.

As for my adult novels, they will still be available both in digital and paperback.  The digital ones will be available to purchase from several retailers so it will be available for whatever device or app you are using.

 I have made it to Chapter 10 of book 2 for the Windy Haven Trilogy and it is progressing a bit slow as I plot out the scenes for the next ten chapters.  I also did several online webinars to help me find a quicker way to put everything together.

One of them was how to use Scrivener and it was very helpful. I had tried it once before and got stuck trying to move my chapters from the cork board to a total document.  To my surprise it was always there just in another section.  I will give it another try and see if it will be useful.
 
 I am still on track for November 2019 for Book 2 Willow:  Family Betrayal (Windy Haven Trilogy Book 2). I am hoping to reach 25,000 to 30,000 words by the end of the month and will come back then to let you know if that was achieved

I have put a pause on my next Children's Book for a few months because I need to do a bit more research and find a foe for my only character Buzby.  I have now renamed the title: Buzby Friend and Foe.  The foe will be named at a future date and I will let you know what the new deadline to publish this book will be.
