Book release updates

Ice Magic, Fire Magic (fantasy) will be delayed until fall 2014 because of the illness of Hadley Rille Books' publisher, Eric Reynolds.

Claimed by the Enemy (historical romance) will be delayed until spring 2014 because I have been increasingly droopy and drained since fall due to worsening anemia. I received two iron infusions this month and should be much better in four to six weeks.

Hadley Rille Books is putting out its books as audiobooks, starting with the earliest books. Like Mayflies in a Stream (historical fiction), a 2009 release, is expected to come out in audiobook format on Amazon.com and Audible.com in June.

HRB's efforts inspired me to produce my novelette "The Hunt" as an audiobook as well. It should be available in April. I really like what my narrator, Melissa Epp, is doing with it so far.

+++++

My appearance at Lady Jane's Salon in Orange County to read from and sign Claimed by the Enemy has been moved from April to July. I'll be there Monday night, 14 July; the salon will feature four authors reading and signing between 7 pm and 9 pm.

Sorry to hear about the delay on your book. I'd like to do that Amtrak thing
