Dear Readers,
I have an editor, a proofreader, and a small team of beta readers, and I pride myself on having little to no errors in my books. If something is brought to my attention after release, it is corrected. While it is rare for a book to be 100% clean, I am now aware that my latest book had several glaring errors regarding a key character.
While working on Village Shenanigans, book eleven in The Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry’s mother, Lori, had an identity crisis and changed her name to Linda midway through the book. We were made aware of the mistake during the Beta reading stage, and I thought we had caught them all. Somehow not all were corrected before the book was uploaded to print.
I wish to extend my sincere apologies for this and assure my team has now fixed those errors.
I accept the blame for this oversite as I am the one who wrote the book. My writing voices protested the tight deadline, and I did not finish writing the book until three days before time to upload it to Amazon. The days leading up to Thanksgiving were hectic as I sent each chapter to my editor as I finished and then sent it to the rest of my team for a final look. My editor even took time during the holiday to upload the manuscript. It was not my team who let me down. It was I who let them down, as I did not give them adequate time to do a thorough read-through.
It is my understanding that Amazon sends out an e-mail alerting people to updates to the manuscript. Please be sure to download the latest version if they give you that option.
I have thought long and hard about what happened and do not wish to repeat the holiday chaos surrounding book eleven’s release. Therefore, I have decided to push the release of book twelve back to January 29th. I know many of you have marked your calendars for the next release, and I do hate to disappoint you. However, I would rather the book be slightly delayed than disappoint you with the quality of the story.
You can expect book twelve to be released on (or before) January 29th.
Again, I am sorry for the delay, but I promise the book will be better for it.
If you are looking for other books to devour while waiting, I would love for you to check out some of my other titles. Please remember my Orphan Train Saga are clean reads – most of the others are not.
Thank you for reading, and a very Merry Christmas to you all!
