For me, September always marks a transition. For huge chunks of my
life, it meant back-to-school--first for myself, then for my sons. Although
they’re grown now, the end of summer and the fading of my vegetable garden (some
of it, anyway) still make this feel like a shift into a different mode.
September is a popular launch period in the tech world, too.
The Kindle Fire 2 tablet is expected to be announced September 6; the iPhone 5
release date is rumored to be September 21. That is, unless I misread the
Internet search results and that all happened last year.
So I feel quite comfortable with the September 4 release
date of the 9th book in my Safe Harbor Medical miniseries from
Harlequin American. That’s when The M.D.’s Secret Daughter will be hitting your
bookstore or mailbox. By the way, you can see the whole Safe Harbor miniseries
on my new Facebook page, JacquelineDiamondAuthor.
This week also marked another book launch for me. For years,
as time and energy permitted, I’ve worked on a love story/science fiction
thriller that spans two universes. It’s so different from anything else I’ve
written, and from anything I’ve read, that I wasn’t sure people were ready for
it.
The popularity of the TV series Fringe changed my mind. The
combination of suspense, wry humor, vivid characters and alternate universes
really appeals to me. So I took one more swing through Out of Her Universe, which is the
first book in a planned series.
This past week, I posted it on Amazon for Kindle ebook readers.
Even if you don’t have a Kindle, you can download a free app for your computer,
tablet or phone from Amazon and read it that way. If you’re curious, please stop by my website and read the first
chapter at Chapter One-Out of Her Universe.
To new beginnings and old friends!
