It's time to drop another writer's podcast on you and drop some names, too: Alane, Chaz, Jennifer, Cheryl, Jacci, and Teri. (Those links are our fellow authors. Please click and give them your love.)

Welcome back to the podcast that "helps writers write," and 2026 is shaping up to be another fun and busy year.

Much of our time is chatting about fans, the ones we see at book signings and the ones who reach out over the internet. CC and I are gratified by how passionate people are about their own writing and about our books, and we learn something new every single time we come in contact with everyone. As we say in the podcast, they keep us energized about writing and they help keep us honest, too.

We also chat about Chicago sports and jumping on/off bandwagons. That's why you see Pope Leo XIV.

We would like to thank James Raquepau and Kendall Brown for appearing on the podcast. Kendall's episode will be posted on Wednesday, January 14th.

Upcoming book releases, all in 2026. These are working titles:
March: "Finding Salvation the Book." This is the compilation of the novellas outlining what happened on Earth when the Salvation departed the solar system. The first novella in on Amazon for 99 cents.
April: "Restless Spirits Book 2." The sequel to #passionrestored, this book will involve new characters in the same setting as Book 1.
June: "Restless Spirits Book 3." More details to follow.
July: The next "Finding Salvation" book. What happened to the people who were left behind on Earth?
October: Two books will be released on Nevada Day (October 31) because they are both set in Nevada. CC will release "Battle Born Bride" and I will release the fourth book in the "A Sheriff in Nevada" series. More details to follow.
