Writing Therapy
My publisher suggested I write a short story to give away (as a downloadable ebook) to compliment the Risky Research Series in advance of releasing the fourth installment, A Measure of Madness, on April 9, 2021. I feared I wouldn’t have time to write a story with everything else going on in my life right now, but the exercise turned out to be very cathartic. At a time when finishing a novel seems overwhelming, this project provided a wonderful distraction and stress relief valve. So, I jumped in with both feet and the ideas poured out. I’m pleased to report that I finished it and submitted it to my publisher ahead of schedule. The story flashes back five years to a counterfeiting case Devyn worked on with Wyoming Sheriff Gage Harris (mentioned in book 1 in the series, A Dose of Danger). The title will be Midnight in Montana. I’m very excited about this little story. I think it turned out well and adds to the series. I’ll let everyone know just as soon as it is available. Thanks for your continued interest in my work.
Hi Kim,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you one hundred percent. With all the stress that I've been under this year, I can't tell you how it helped when I wrote and completed a women's fiction. Writing therapy works.
