After my husband and I returned from the Czech Republic the end of March 2020 (after being "stuck" for two extra weeks with four days' of clothing--although spending more time in my favorite place with friends who now feel like extended family was more paradise than any hardship at all) I had a difficult time concentrating on ANYTHING, much less writing! And when my husband was laid off, things became even more stressful. I feared after 35 years of writing my words had dried up forever.
But God was merciful, and my husband finally found a job (though much less pay and not in his field). Gradually my characters started speaking to me again, and I was able to finish this story. Ironically, I thought it would be the easiest in the series to write because it's mostly a tale of survival on the journey to manhood. My critique partner was amazed I was able to put together a coherent book, and she said the ending was her favorite in both series. So I am well content. 😊
The first two in the series, Dolan's Bride and Joy's Sorrow, are FREE today, and Valerian's Flight is available for preorder at 99 cents. Release day is July 1st, the 6th anniversary of the book that started this whole epic story, Mercy's Prince. I may make that one free, just to celebrate!!!
