Hey there happy reader!
I don’t know about you, but I hold my female friendships close to my heart. I love my husband with my whole being – we’re married for forty-four years – but my women friends are among the most important relationships in my life.
I mean, who else would you rob a bank with?
Plan a revenge scheme with? Confide in? Ask for advice? It’s the women in our lives that enrich us, support us, and embrace us when we need it most. And that matters.
It’s why I’ve dedicated my newest book, “From Below the Horizon” to my dearest girlfriends.
It’s a book about my imaginings of what happened to the civilization that built Stonehenge, but really, the deeper message is all about what women are willing to do for women.
We support each other throughout the life cycle. We help raise each other’s children; we talk each other through problems with health and relationships. We stand up for and stand by our friends when they are low.
We are a strong and powerful force, and I’m here for it!
When I see the stones, I think of all the resilient women who I’m fortunate enough to count on as friends.
Mostly, I’m grateful!
The book is now in my publisher’s hands. As soon as we have a cover, you’ll see it here first. And as soon as there’s a publication date, I’ll share it with you… I can’t wait to launch this one into the world!
Oh, and one more thing. My beta readers (thank you, ladies!) are giving me great feedback about this book.
Apparently, this novel will keep you turning the pages late into the night!
It seems appropriate that this is the point in time when I get to go on a family vacation! One book is put to bed; another has its solid first draft almost completed. There won’t be a newsletter next week as I spend some quality time on the beach with those two sweet grandsons of ours. I can’t wait to tell them stories as they fall asleep each night…
I hope that you’re reading something great. Lots of good fiction out there right now. Don’t miss Ann Pachett’s newest novel “Whistler.” It’s beautiful!!
Get outside, enjoy the sunshine and have a safe and fun July 4th. See you after the country’s birthday!
As always, let me know what you think!
xoxo,
Hilari
