It Was a Good Year

2024 has been a good year for me as an author. I didn't publish sixteen books as I did in 2023, so it wasn't quite as rushed. However, I still published eleven, which is a lot for one year. The only month I didn't publish a book was May, but my April book came on the 20th, so it was later in the month. The one before it published on March 5th, and the ones following on the first of the month. Here is the schedule:

Jan 16, 2024 – Grandma’s Match for Garrett 

Feb 1, 2024 – A Match for Silas

Mar 5, 2024 – A Journey for Jillian 

Apr 20, 2024 – Zoe 

June 1, 2024 – Beckett’s Brides 

Jul 1, 2024 – A Match for Merle 

Aug 5, 2024 – Carmen’s Wedding Dilemma 

Sep 2, 2024 – A Match for Milton 

Oct 3, 2024 – Noah’s New Bride 

Nov 1, 2024 – A Match for Reece 

Dec 6, 2024 - Andrea

A Journey for Jillian was my best-selling book of the year. Beckett’s Brides was the one I went to Deadwood, South Dakota, to research in 2023. I've had it in the back of my mind to write about gypsies for a long time, and I finally got to do that in Carmen. Noah’s New Bride, about a lumberman, reminded me of my father who grew up working in his family's sawmill business and could name and describe almost any tree. A Match for Reece concluded my six books in this series set in Pinyon Falls, Texas. All of the books listed are special to me. It was a good year.

Right now, I have ten books planned for 2025, but that could certainly change. My writing schedule always fills up fast. I will talk more about those books in an upcoming blog. I hope the new year is as good for me as an author as the last three have been. Let me close by wishing each and every one of you a very merry Christmas and the happiest New Year.
