Good morning! Today’s post will link up to Sunday Salon, The Sunday Post, and Book Journey, for What Are You Reading?
**Mailbox Monday is now hosted at the home site: Mailbox Monday.
Good morning, Bloggers! Grab some coffee, and let’s talk about our weeks.
This has been a great week, in terms of movement on my newest book, Interior Designs. Here is the book cover, and the book itself should be released by mid-April…or sooner.
Check out my website for more information about the book, complete with excerpts:
We are definitely having some spring weather, but there was some rain earlier this week…and even some wind. But it’s not cold. Or hot. So that works for me.

I was thrilled with my Amazon credit. I used it to buy paperbacks of some of my favorite books so I can have them signed at an upcoming author event. 🙂 I can’t wait!

My Amazon credit is small, but I can do some serious damage with my B&N credit, which is burning a **virtual** hole in my pocket. Your forthcoming book sounds wonderful,..what a great description of the protagonist…I think many readers will relate to her.
I want all the new books you’ve added this week, except for Last Letter from Your Lover, which I’ve already enjoyed. That was my first JoJo Moyes novel, and it made me a huge fan.

Thanks, Catherine, glad you liked the sound of my new book. The protagonist was the “antagonist” in the previous book, Embrace the Whirlwind, so it was a challenge to bring out her positive traits.
My first Moyes book was Me Before You, but then I added some more, and recently read The Girl You Left Behind.
I’m glad you could stop by, and have a great week.

My oh my, what a good week for you! I counted 9, including Interior Designs, that I would like to read or have on my wishlist now (seemed quicker than naming them all). One I had never heard of but looks interesting is Invisible Ellen. The others I knew about but don’t have yet. Enjoy the week, and hopefully your good weather holds out during it. (aside: I like the work you did on your blogs recently).
