Happy June!

Wow! Here we are, halfway through the year already. How did that happen?

It’s been a bit of a crazy week for me, between June advising, a nasty chemical exposure from the worksite next door, wild weather, and so on and so forth. Perhaps I will look back on it someday and feel like I’ve really grown as a person because of it.

Meanwhile, I’ve got various exciting things to announce. First of all, I’ve finished a first draft of book #6 in the Doctor Rowena Halley series. I originally titled it Summer Intensive but now I’m contemplating calling it Total Immersion. If you have a preference for one over the other, let me know! And sneak peeks should be coming soon, so stay tuned for that.

Second of all, the audiobooks of Campus Confidential and Permanent Position have been chosen for promos at various retailers for June is Audiobook Month events. Campus Confidential is currently 99c on Google Play and Barnes & Noble, and $1.99 on Apple. Permanent Position is currently $1.99 at the same stores (link to Apple here, GP here, and B&N here). AND Barnes & Noble is featuring both books in their June is Audiobook Month promos: check out the indie romance audiobook promo here and the indie mystery & thriller audiobook promo here.

I’m a big audiobook and podcast listener myself, and I’ve recently gotten into the Gangster Capitalism podcast. Seasons 1 & 3 are all about real-life crime and corruption at US universities, so if that’s something you’re interested in, or you just want to stoke your outrage, you should check it out! I have so many thoughts about it, but the main one is the incredibly corrupting effects of money on education, and the problems we’ve created by linking education with class and wealth in ways that have had all sorts of fallout. If you listen to the podcast, I’d love to hear what you think!

Finally, I’m participating this month in the Thrillers for FREE giveaway. Dozens of free thrillers, all available for immediate download! So if you want to stock up, check it out here.
