“Never a dull moment!”
“When one door closes, another opens…”—Alexander Graham Bell
“Is the glass half empty or half full?”
“May you live in interesting times.”
Those phrases/quotes are some of the common ones we use to
describe our lives as things change, opportunities present themselves or
chances are lost. Indeed, I agree with all of them. In fact, I’m pretty sure
several of them flitted through my mind this weekend when I found out my old
publisher, through which I published four books, will be closing in June.
Nope, not my current one. They are doing great and I’m
publishing—and selling—books with them. In fact, my next book, Five Minutes to
Love, is coming out sometime in the spring and I’m currently waiting to see a
galley copy so I can make copy edits and then get a specific release date. No
worries there.
The other publisher is lovely, small and very concerned with
the future of her authors. She’s going out of her way to help us, provide us
legal releases so our rights revert to us, and help us with anything we need.
And readers can still buy those books as long as they are on Amazon and Barnes
& Noble.
My first reaction was actually excitement. Because there are
now so many possibilities! I have lots of plans, which I’m keeping to myself
for now, but ultimately will reveal in the future. I have terrific people to
advise me and I’m taking things slowly when I can. In the meantime, when in
doubt, edit. I have been going through one of the books and re-editing it (you
can never do that too many times), because I can’t do anything with it until
it’s almost perfect.
So stay tuned, because I hope to have more book
announcements in the near future.
In the meantime, if you love to read, here’s a giveaway you
