Mahalo,

I'm listening to Dido's Here With Me as I write this edition of The Writer Gal Letter. I don’t have juicy news for you this time because I spent the first week of November immersed in an awesome author conference specifically for romance authors! I had a blast but it was taxing to the brain.

Needless to say, there are plans going forward but this is a bit of a rest and recuperation period for me! And I am definitely plotting all the different books I want to write going forward.

In the meantime, I am doing is reading all the books - I particularly recommend Manacled by Senlinyu on Archive of our own. It's Dramione fanfic and INCREDIBLE! <3

It’s kind of a rollercoaster ride with life right now but I’m trying to hold onto my balance as I go through each day. Not easy but not impossible either. I think when I do write again, my words will be more poignant and punchy than they have ever been because I now know the value of every single one of them in a way I haven’t since I started writing at age 12. A huge part of me is beyond excited to share that with you, Postmate, but all good things take time, don’t they? Even I have to learn that!

I do have some bookish goodies for you, in the meantime!

What sale do you want for Black Friday?

I’m aware that Black Friday is nearing and I’d love to thank you, Postmate, by doing a sale for that weekend. So just answer this poll and let me know what book(s) /series you want to read most! :) I’m keeping the poll open for a week so you have plenty of time to mull things over :)

An Unmissable Sale by a Writer Gal’s Writer Pal

My dearest friend Patricia Eddy (who is a fellow Dissenter) is making a solo list run for USA Today on her military mountain man romance which is on sale at 99c!

It is one of the BEST books in the genre with a grumpy ex-Navy Seal of a Cinnamon roll alpha who is also a bearded mountain man! A snowed in one bed only situation where he definitely falls first with a super smart and survivalist heroine! In other words, the perfect protector romance. And if you need more - there is a dog and lots of found family love.

Sale at 99c

Here is the blurb for you!

Wyatt⁠
⁠I'm no hero. Don't much care that the Navy disagrees with me. My years as a SEAL left me with a ledger full of blood, a permanent limp, and a complete inability to function in polite society. Up in the mountains, no one bothers me. Hell, no one even knows I exist. It's better that way.⁠
⁠So why did I bring the beaten and bloodied woman back to my cabin?⁠
⁠Because when I found her trapped in an SUV hanging upside down at the edge of the cliff, she whispered three words I couldn't ignore.⁠
⁠"He'll kill me."⁠
⁠No, he won't, darlin'. Because anyone coming for you? They'll have to go through me. No one messes with a SEAL and survives.⁠
Hope⁠
⁠One night, one mistake, and I’m trapped. My boyfriend-turned-captor will never let me go. Unless I take matters into my own hands and escape. But even then, he finds me, and now the car I stole is hanging upside down, balanced on a tree, on the side of the mountain. In a snowstorm.⁠
⁠When a stranger comes to my rescue, I don’t want to trust him, but I don’t have a choice. Will this bearded mountain man be my salvation? Or will the man who wants me dead kill Wyatt too?⁠
