It has been an awesome week, full of interesting and unexpected happenings.  Not a lot of reading going on here, but my novel Interior Designs is in production!  Soon it will be available, and it feels like a very long time coming.

    1. Oh, so do I, Stacy. Can’t wait to read more of it, but I’ve been proofing the interior of my new book today. Exciting! Tomorrow I have a cover consultation with the design team.

      Thanks for stopping by.

  23. Congratulations on your upcoming release. How exciting. Let me know when you’re ready and I’ll feature you at my blogs. A lot going on here, but not getting done what I want to. I’m totally captivated by Pioneer Girl by Bich Minh NNguyen.

    Thanks for visiting The Busy Mom’s Daily.

    1. Thanks, Cheryl, that’s good to know. I suspect it will move along quickly, as I already have the completed interior files to proof, and a cover design consultation tomorrow. I’ll let you know. Thanks for visiting.

  28. Hi Laurel-Rain,

    First off, Many Congratulations on getting the new book into production, I hope that it will be a huge success for you.

    I too, have ‘Love Story, With Murders’ in my review stack, however I obtained my copy via a Kindle download link from Netgalley.

    I can’t wait to read your thoughts about ‘The Lost Years’. This seems like such a vast change in style and genre for Mary Higgins Clark, however I have never been disappointed by any of her work to date, so this is a definite for my reading list.

    Thanks for another interesting post and I hope that your week is a good one.

    Yvonne

    1. Yes, after the long process of writing, editing, etc., it does seem as if it is coming together rather quickly. But, of course, it only FEELS that way. It was a long journey.

      Thanks for visiting, Peggy, and for sharing your thoughts.

      I love the cover of Save Yourself, too.
