Moving

We're moving -- about 100 yards away. And I'm discovering it takes just as much work and energy as it does to move across the state. Sigh!

New Cover

 I can't believe I neglected to show you my newest cover.  I'm really pleased with this one.  A Double-Edged Sword should be out in late May -- that's my hope anyway.  Stay tuned for a sneak peek at this action packed installment of Branches of Time.

Goodreads Giveaway

 The 13th Lighthouse

Hey Goodreaders! I have a giveaway going. I'm giving away 100 Kindle copies of The 13th Lighthouse. How do I enter, you ask?
If you have a Goodreads account, simply go to the main page and type in the title of my book in the search window. Click on that when it comes up, and you will see how to enter right under the cover photo. If you win, the book will automatically drop into your Kindle.
This giveaway is only running for a few more days, so give it a whirl. What have you got to lose? And don't forget to share this post and tell all of your friends. I appreciate it.

P.S. This beautiful cover photo was taken by photographer, Bill Reek, from my hometown of Muskegon, Michigan. This is The South Pierhead Light, at Pere Marquette Beach, which is mentioned many times in my books.

A New Me

 So, yet again, my Facebook page was hacked.  So if you are a follower on FB at Jane O'Brien Author, you will notice a new Photo and Cover Photo.  I often wonder why this kind of thing doesn't happen at Twitter, Instagram, or Threads.  I have never once been hacked there; have you?

Question

Deep Snow in the North

 

If you're in one of the states that looks like this today, I can sympathize with you; but maybe whatever you were supposed to do today was canceled, and just maybe you'll have time to read a good book. That's a plus. If you do find yourself with some extra 'me' time, don't forget about my latest book in my series Branches of Time, because there just might be buried gold underneath all of that snow! Of course we won't be able to find out until spring, but remember February is the shortest month of the year, and spring has never failed to arrive yet! It's just around the corner. Positive thoughts.

I'm Injured

 

Have you noticed that I have been quiet on my Facebook page? That's because two weeks ago I bent over to retrieve something while twisting my body at the same time, and I hurt myself. After an extreme amount of pain for two days, I decided to go to the ER. Many tests later they sent me home with drugs. They called it Tendinopathy. It seems I tore a tendon that connects to the hip. The recovery time for this is three weeks to three months. I have finally been able to give up using a walker, but I move slowly as I'm not totally healed yet. Needless to say this has slowed down my writing considerably. It has been a bad last few months for me as far as productivity, but I think I'm ready to go again.

So let's see what Skye and Rem are up to. Even I don't know at this point

Visions of Gold

 Visions of Gold

Click here for the newest book in Branches of Time.  I'm so happy to bring you the next installment.  After reading it one last time before publication, I was just as thrilled and as excited as when I wrote it.  Who would have thought that the two lovers, Skye and Rem, would ever be torn apart?  Will they get back together?  And who is hoping to find gold, but more importantly, where is it?  I'm so thrilled by the possibilities that I want to go prospecting myself when Spring returns!  

If you're a fan of Diana Gabaldon and you're looking for a new twist on time traveling, please read my series, starting with A Slip in Time, and then continue on with the spinoff series, Branches in Time.

Oh, and don't forget to leave a review.  I appreciate it more than you know.

Happy New Year
