New Haunting Danielle Releases

Wow. It’s June already. While technically summer, our current Oregon sky wants to stay winter, but our roses are ignoring its efforts and continue to bloom.

My last blog post was about my most recent book, The Ghost and the Poltergeist (Book 34 in the Haunting Danielle Series), which came out the end of April. Happy to report it is doing well, and staying at a 4.8 average rating over at Amazon, with over 600 rating/reviews. 

I’ve heard from Tantor Media that they plan to release the audiobook version of The Ghost and the Poltergeiston October 15, 2024.

As for the release of Book 35, The Ghost Who Sought Redemption, look for its release (in eBook format and paperback and large print) on September 30, 2024.

Since the release of my last book, I took some time off work. One week in May we took a RV trip to camp along the Columbia River in Washington. It was the first time we’ve used our motorhome since moving to Oregon, September 2021. While the weather was a little rainy, we still enjoyed ourselves—the view was beautiful—and Lily and Danny (our miniature Aussies, not the characters from Haunting Danielle) did great on the trip. A little barking at first, but they finally settled in, and we didn’t get kicked out of the park.

This past week I flew down to California to attend my granddaughter’s 8th grade graduation. I stayed for about five days, and hubby stayed home with the pups. It’s a short flight from Portland Airport to Sacramento. I enjoyed spending time with my daughter’s family, and while I took my laptop with me (telling myself I would be doing some work) I only brought it out once to send out my Haunting Danielle Newsletter.

 I arrived back home late yesterday afternoon, and our son and daughter-in-law brought over some take-out Chinese food so hubby and I wouldn’t have to cook dinner on my first night back. It was nice spending time with BOTH my kids, their spouses, and grandkids, all in the same day.

While the sun is playing peek-a-boo up here in Oregon, I still think this is a good start for summer. And in a couple weeks, hubby and I are celebrating our 48th wedding anniversary!

What are your summer plans?

The Ghost and the Poltergeist arrived today!

Technically speaking, the eBook went live today. Readers could order the paperbacks at Amazon for the last couple days.

When I wrote the first Haunting Danielle book in 2014, I had no idea the series would be this long (with no end in sight.) In fact, back then the first book was called Haunting Danielle, Book 1. I soon learned using numbers instead of titles for all the books in the series was a stupid thing to do, so I renamed the first book to The Ghost of Marlow House. It was book one in the Haunting Danielle series.

There will be a book 35. That one will be The Ghost Who Sought Redemption, scheduled for a September 30, 2024 release date.

Hope you enjoy the new book!

In other news, are you snowed in? Has the weather kept you home, like it has us? Have you been spending your time reading but now your eyes are starting to hurt? Have you considered switching to an audiobook? It just so happens I have the perfect one! Haunting Danielle’s most recent release, The Ghost and the Twins, came out in audiobook format just this week! That was a clever segue, wasn’t it?
