New Sales! Resonance Mates 2 & 3

Samhain Publishing has decided to pick up the second and third books in my Resonance Mates series – the one that started with Hara’s Legacy. Book 2 is titled Davin’s Quest and Book 3 is called Jaci’s Experiment.

Davin’s Quest will probably be out sometime early next year in ebook and Jaci’s Experiment – I’m guessing – might be out in either late 2008 or early 2009. I don’t have definite word on any of this yet, but that’s the way I *think* it will play out. I’m absolutely thrilled to have the series stay with Samhain and look forward to working on edits to whip these manuscripts into shape.

Actually, I need to finish them both first, but that should be a pleasure now that I know they have a good home. Davin needs a little re-working on his opening chapter, but I don’t mind. Some of you may know I wrote Hara’s Legacy long before Samhain was even around. I’d been targeting another publisher, who sat on the manuscript for over a year before rejecting it without even reading it. I turned around and sent the same thing to my editor at Samhain and she bought it three days later. The year delay annoyed me, but it worked out for the best, I think.

Still, Hara’s Legacy is essentially “old” writing. I’ve learned so much in the years since I first wrote that book – and since I wrote the first halves of both Davin’s and Jaci’s books. I’ll enjoy putting my new knowledge to work on the rest of those stories and cleaning up the beginnings. I think it’ll be a fun challenge!
