Here is the paperback cover for Serpent’s Teeth, by Jacqueline Abromeit of GoodCoverDesign. I said in my recent post that I’m going to use the CWA’s free marketing resources to publicize the launch, which means that I should be able to publish on or shortly after the 1st of November, fingers crossed. Don’t tell the devil too much of your mind was one of my mother’s many sayings. I hope that Satan is not one of my readers.

Wow, this one’s been a long haul. I published Called to Account four years ago. The research phase for Serpent’s Teeth involved reading biographies of Louis XIII, Marie de Medici, Charles Albert de Luynes, and Cardinal Richelieu. I think it was worth it though.

Hopefully the sixth book, Cade’s Point, which is in first draft, won’t be more that three or four months behind. It’s waiting for Claire to critique it at the moment.
