Yes, my real, yummy birthday cake!! |
I can honestly say this has been a HUGE year for changes with more to come.
There have been a few constants--my Escape With a Writer Blog, my feline companions, my family, and many friends--but a lot of other things have changed and will keep on evolving.
- I've moved across Canada from Ontario to Alberta, which is more of a homecoming since I was born and raised here.
- I now have my own business (Escape With a Writer!) and am working closely with my publisher of the past 10 years, BWL Publishing Ltd. Currently, we are setting up a Shopify store - Links to come. And there is big news with the additions of a new author who is a member of the Canadian Music Hall of Fame!
- Oh, and I'll be training with BWL to eventually take over the publishing reins. Lots to learn there.
- Under the banner of Escape With a Writer, will not only be the blog, but I'm madly plotting a podcast to feature amazing authors and other people who I think are just plain fascinating! I have a lot of learning to do for that yet since I'm busy going down rabbit holes to learn about so many things right now.
- Heading out to a couple great writing conferences. One is When Words Collide coming soon to Calgary.
AND editing a couple books for good friends.
AND writing a couple books! Dead Without Malice, my next and possibly last Gilda Wright Mystery comes out in June 2024. Jesse James' Gold, a book in the BWL Canadian Historical Mystery Series, comes out in October 2024. Time to start cracking the whip!
