In case you missed it, last week I made a sample of Due North available to all on my reader list.
This blog post is dedicated to making sure there’s a permanent place that you can access the link to sign up for my mailing list and get your free sample.
(If you did miss it, here’s the link:
I’ve also started to make some pretty big promises to the world about the book release date (also known as “Launch Date.”) Doesn’t it conjure images of rockets launching into space to explore the vast beyond and create great new beginnings? That’s definitely the sort of image I want publishing my book to conjure up.
It turns out that making a free sample available and announcing a LAUNCH DATE aren’t the only things that are happening in my little corner of the world. (PS—the world is round… technically spherical, so there aren’t any corners. It’s an expression. Also, things on this earth have corners and I happen to be hiding in one, sitting in a chair and furiously typing.)
I’ve got a lot cooking right now, including one tiny little human who happens to be growing and gestating inside of me at this very moment. She’s due to make her debut this summer and that’s a big part of what’s made me slightly hesitant to commit to specific dates. But we’re now officially close enough (to both the birth of my second child and the launch of my first novel) that I’m comfortable making commitments (to both the birth of my second child and the launch of my first novel.)
The formal announcement of the Launch Date for Due North is forthcoming this Friday.
But Wait, there’s more!
Not only will I be announcing the launch of Due North, but I’ll also be launching a new Blog segment called Flash Fridays. I’ll also do a Q&A for all subscribers and anyone who tunes in—about Due North and other projects I’ve got hot on the coles. I’ll be doing this with a LIVE reading (Facebook live, to be specific.)

To be clear, the following things will happen LIVE on Friday afternoon as close to 3PM Pacific time as I can manage:
- Formal announcement of the Launch Date for Due North
- Reading of the first flash fiction short for the new Blog Segment Flash Fridays
- Announcement on other projects and their details
- Q&A segment
- I might stand up and show you how very pregnant I am, if I’m feeling good, that is
I’m hoping to keep this segment up for a while. Obviously I may miss a few weeks around when kid #2 makes her debut, but I should be back at it once we figure out how to parent two children at the same time.
