Dear Reader, Fourteen days and counting! It all goes so fast. LOVE AND THE EPIDEMIC is set to release on May 1, as scheduled. There’s always something, of course. In this case, as I told you last time, I felt the need of a few edits to the story. That Read more…
Dear Reader, Audacity Books has a new home, and I hope you’ll approve of it. Everything else pretty much ground to a halt this last week while the new website captured all my attention. Now that it’s done, I’m sure there will be some kinks to iron out. And I Read more…
