All of us have been affected by
the coronavirus. The publishing industry, like many others, has been one of its
victims. When Black Opal Press accepted my manuscript, GLORY LOST, I was
excited. Six months later, BOB had problems with staffing. Their headquarters is
in Washington state, which was hit earlier than many states primarily because
of the influx of ships. They also have been trying to organize since their
corporation came under new owners. But two especially dedicated women there
have been wonderful. Their dedication to their jobs under very fluid conditions
is commendable. Susan and Gibby have worked hard to help keep everything
afloat. I owe these two women a lot. I hope to be able to announce the release
of GLORY LOST by next month, possibly a March release. If you are an author,
please let us know where we can all purchase your books. To readers, thanks for
your loyalty!
I am certain that we all have either had personal and/or professional hurdles to overcome after 2020. I pray that more of us will soon be vaccinated and that our world will be headed for a better 2021! Take care of yourselves, stay safe, and please get vaccinated!
