I am now to the place that I'm able to plan far ahead. I have a five-book series coming out in 2022, plus two books that will be part of a multiple-author project where several authors write one or more of the books in a large series. In 2023, I have two or three more MAPS, a standalone western, and a three-book series that moves to the West. 2024 will begin with a MAP, but then, I'm not sure. I have a list of ideas and even some book covers for them, but they're not firmed up enough to be sure when I'll bring them to life. 2022 is set, but there could be some slight changes in the other schedules. 

However, the series seem to be taking over. Readers tell me they prefer them, and I enjoy writing them. The books flow from one naturally into the others to get the stories told, usually of a family and sometimes of generations. Still, each of my books has a definite ending, so any of them can be read as standalones. But to get the full story, you'll need to read them all, and you should read them in order if you get more than one. Any way I look at it, my writing future looks good, and I'm excited about what's coming.
