Happy New Year 2016

Another January rolls around and I find myself full of vim and vigor, eager to get going on several writing projects that I've had brewing in my head for the last few months.

I won't promise exactly when each of these new books will be available for preorder or release,  but I wanted to share what my 2016 plans look like today.

My new books will include ACADIA'S REVENGE and ACADIA'S APOCALYPSE, books two and three in the Undying Love Series. If you haven't read ACADIA'S LAW: Book One--it's available everywhere eBooks are sold. Most of the people that love the Anabel Axelrod series, and were shy to read a genre a little outside their norm, were happily surprised how much they loved the book. Check out Acadia's reviews and see for yourself. She's a kick ass heroine and it's an interesting, gripping story line. I'm totally in love with the hero, Rod. He's delicious! ;}

I will also be writing Volume VII in The Adventures of Anabel Axelrod ongoing series. It's tentatively titled THE KISS OF KISMET. There's no way I can't write a book centered around Anabel and Luke's wedding, right? My God, the possibilities for crazy fun are endless!

Another book I'm super excited to get started on is ALL JAZZED UP. A stand-alone spin off novel from Anabel's world, this will be Jazy Axelrod's story and hot, Hot, HOT!!!  

Something different and fun, I'm starting a brand new romance serial novel in my occasional newsletter. While I'm not saying what book it will be, I do know the first chapter(s) will be posted in my February edition of Tracy INKlings newsletter, and will be available exclusively for newsletter members to read. Sign up for my newsletter, if you haven't, to receive the serial book in the works. I guarantee you won't want to miss this story!

So, darlings, that's what I'm up to so far in this new year. Until we meet again in my next book, I wish all of you a happy, healthy, and steaming hot 2016!

Excitement in Book World!

I thought I'd share a couple pieces of exciting news going on in my world of writing and self-publishing...

First of all, I am giddy as hell because Amazon announced they are now granting self-published authors the opportunity to advertise their upcoming new eBooks for pre-order sales! Pre-orders sales have been a huge--HUGE--edge that published authors have over the self-published authors at Amazon. Leveling that playing field somewhat is fantastic news for us little guys. (Within the past few months, Smashwords offered self-published authors the ability to put their eBooks up for pre-order sales at B&N/Nook and iTunes books. You go, Mark Coker! )

And the second piece of fun news? The fourth book in the ongoing series of The Adventures of Anabel Axelrod is going to soon be up for pre-order sales at Barnes & Noble/Nook and iTunes/books. It will be available on Amazon/Kindle, too, but that will take another month or so.

For Anabel fans, here's a sneak peek of the new book cover. I'll keep you posted when Adieu to Destiny is available for pre-order sales. I am sure Ms. Wheeler-Dealer Axelrod will want to offer a pre-order promotion you simply can't pass up! :}
