Snowbound release update!

[cj2017]

Apparently, this is quite a sneaky little book that I've written. Sneaky as in, released kinda sooner than I'd expected! So, for anyone who might be interested in picking up a copy of Snowbound:

Bold Strokes Books now have it in stock (e-books here). They also have the first ten pages or so up as a preview so you can see what you're letting yourself in for.

Amazon have upped their release date to... well, now! Although they're saying it might take an extra couple of days to process (this one was a surprise because they had it listed as 20 December originally, so thankslaurel_hardy for the heads up!)

I really hope that anyone who does buy it, enjoys it. It's been a fabulous year getting it to this point and I can't tell you how much I appreciate all the people on here who've been such good cheerleaders. A big thank you to one and all :-)

You DID lure me in with your fic! And I am so glad you did. I was really thrilled to hear that you had written a full length novel. The idea of writing a novel is what got me dabbling in fan fiction to begin with. (Well, that, and the fact that I was convinced that Alex and Olivia of SVU fame were totally doing it!) But I seem to be destined to write little short things - it seems I have the attention span of a gnat when it comes to writing long ones. And I've yet to venture into original character territory, but I hope to some day. So, 'meeting' someone who has made the transition from fic to novel is really very cool for me. OK, I'll stop fangirling now. ;-)

I'm rather close to the medical field myself, so I really enjoy the realism with which you write those scenes. I'm glad you're not saying 'never' to a sequel. I mean, you know, a cop and a doctor seems to work in this genre, so I'm sure they could find some sort of trouble to get into in Book 2!

I think I did it the other way round. I started Snowbound and then it got put on the back burner while I wrote a couple of novels worth of Sarah Connor fic! Once that was out of my system I went back to Snowbound. For well over fours years now I've always had something on the go, either fan fic or original fic. It's been lovely. I enjoy writing either, fan fic - i.e that last little R&I one - is a nice breather because the characters are already established. You don't need to start explaining things from scratch because you can assume knowledge from the people you're writing for. Having said that, writing something that's all yours is really wonderful.

LOL @ fangirling. I've got a fan and I got pirated the other day! I really feel like I've made it as an author now *vbg*

I think Kate and Sam would be very inclined to spend their days sitting with their feet up in front of a fire after the trouble I got them into first time out. But I know what you mean about the cop/doc pairing. It is a classic ;-)
