Hey there happy reader,
I feel a bit buried under piles and piles of work. Ugh!! I decided that my website needed a refresh. I mean, don’t we all after a bit?
My current website is the photo on the right, lol!!
I feel like I’m dusting the cobwebs from the corners of my website and tidying it up, getting ready for the re-release of my new book covers….and here they are!!!
I love them and I hope you do as well.
I think the background colors really pop and reflect the season each book represents. As soon as I have the publication date, I’ll post it here first.
Is anyone else watching “The Gilded Age?”
I am loving the attention to historical detail that Julian Fellowes puts into everything he does. From the costumes to the place settings at the very elaborate nightly dinners, everything matters. That’s why I like the task of researching history for a novel. It’s the small things that make the difference for readers.
That’s why the pieces of jewelry above are important to my Stonehenge story, “Below the Horizon.”
These opulent artifacts were found in 1808 on the site in Salisbury Plain. They date back to the time when people were building and living at the monument. Clearly, they belonged to a woman of status and high rank. In my mind, they were worn by my protagonist, Maya. Intrigued? I sure hope so… I’m racing to the finish line to get this work to my editor!
Are you enjoying your summer despite the heat that seems to be blanketing the country? I try to pace myself and get work done every morning, then head out to do something that gives me time to regroup in the afternoon. Try it. We all need a moment to just gather our thoughts on a sultry day!
As always, let me know what you think!
xoxo,
Hilari
