If the Murder Quartet doesn't sell to a regular publisher, you go hybrid and self publish them, cause I (and many others, I'm sure) want to read them and support you!

Yes, I definitely can! But...I suspect...well, I think these will wind up going the traditional route, haha. I can say no more!

Good luck Susan. Will Executioner make PW or BookPage? As I understand, that really boosts library sales

Trade reviews, yes. Ads, I don’t know. Both of those things are dependent on my publisher pitching and being accepted!

Wow, totally LOVING all those titles you mentioned, very intriguing and atmospheric! Loved reading this post, because I think I'm finally in a simliar situation as you when it comes to writing new stories... I've figured out what I need to prepare in order to be really productive and write drafts that WORK. I'm actually getting to do less-than-ideal first drafts, which is something I've never accomplished before, because usually I get stuck in the plot and also mired down in wanting it to be really good the first time. Hearing about your process and what you're going through is so helpful <3
