It's my birthday! Celebrate with me—and two fun polls


News & Musings from
Susanne Dunlap

Dear Reader,

My annual announcement and little gift to my subscribers—today is my birthday!

I'm 71.

I definitely feel it is a privilege to have reached this age. I'm privileged to have a life in books and words, and to be able to use my imagination on a daily basis. I don't take it for granted.

So a quick little promotion: The Falconer's Lost Baron is $.99 today only.

And I've got two quick little polls for subscribers—is the plural of series really series?

As I'm starting work on book 6 in my Double-Dilemma Romance series (it will be the final book in this series) I have another question for those of you who have read any of the first four (soon to be five) books.

Having extolled the virtues of leading a creative life, I am now completely out of creative things to say...

Hoping you're all faring well in this interminable February!

Susanne

News & Musings from Susanne Dunlap Dear Reader, She's here! Or rather, they're here: Persephone, James, Sophia, and Nathaniel. I'm excited for readers to discover this side of Regency Cornwall, near what was the largest slate quarry in the world at that time. To celebrate, I'm embarking on a five-day blog tour, starting today. Here's the schedule: I'll be sharing links and reviews as we go! Fun was had... at my Dull-Thud-Day Eve party! I didn't really have an in-person launch event for this...

Cover of The Teacher's Noble Heart, book 5 in the Double-Dilemma romance series by Susanne Dunlap

News & Musings from Susanne Dunlap Dear Reader, Gulp! Only a week until launch day for The Teacher's Noble Heart, book five in my Double-Dilemma Romance series. Book five!!! I'm kind of gobsmacked when I think that The Dressmaker's Secret Earl, the first book in the series, was published less than a year ago. I started writing it months before that, of course, but I'm still amazed at how these romances have poured out of me, as if they were hiding in my heart and just waiting for their chance...

News & Musings from Susanne Dunlap Dear Reader, Before I get into Book 5 promotion mode (publication is less than two weeks away), I wanted to share something with you that I mentioned briefly in my previous email. As I said, I'm now offering an online indie publishing course, Publishing Without Panic. Why? Because taking the leap into self-publishing is a bit scary—even though there are lots of resources online to help you do it. Often they simply tell you what to do without telling you why...
