Cross of Fire and D-Day

Now that The Juno Letters is out and distributed, including the print version, I have been working on the sequel, Cross of Fire - the Story of Gela.  I have a great new cover and am about half-way through the first draft.  I plant to have the second book in The Juno Letters series published in December.

The third book of the series, Ariéle, will be out by late spring in time for the trip to Juno Beach in June.  2014 will be both the 100th anniversary of The Great War (WWI) and the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings.  I have been in touch with both the Juno Beach Center and the commune of Courseulles and am planning to take part in the activities.

More information will follow.  Several readers have emailed me and plan to also attend.  While we will be doing all our own travel and hotel arrangements, I plan to have some sort of get-together in Courseulles.  It will be a lot of fun.

I will post snippets of Cross of Fire when they are edited here on the blog.  I will also take orders for a free prerelease version in exchange for a review, so stay tuned!
