Fourth novel sold

November 30, 2009

Well, I was in New York in November, and we sold the novel. Since contracts aren't signed, I won't say more than that, yet. I have to do some revisions, and I'm both excited and repelled by that, but I am concentrating on being excited and trusting that I'll know when a suggestion/revision isn't right for what I want. What a learning curve there is with every novel. Sometimes, it makes me tired, but I think it also makes me stretch. I'll see what you think....

Is this book a follow up to Now Face to Face? I will be really dissapointed if it isn't?

No, this novel does not follow Now Face to Face. Now Face to Face is the second novel I've written. The third is Dark Angels, which highlights the character of Alice when she was young.
This fourth novel is about a young and hot Louis XIV, when he had to decide if he would fight the most powerful man in the kingdom and also when he fell in love. And I threw in a boy in the iron mask.
