Happy Holidays (with New Release info) from Kacey Hammell #Christmas #NewRelease #Author (@KaceyHammell)

Good morning and happy December all!

The year is almost done. Did you accomplish all your goals? I didn't but am going to work even harder to do so in 2017. It was a roller-coaster of a year and tragic in so many ways across the world.

Winter so far in my area of Ontario has been crazy already. Last night we got a major dumping, with more on the way tonight, as well as some freezing rain expected. Sigh. I'm tired of the white stuff already. And temperatures were frigid this past week!  I miss the sunshine and warmer temperatures. Fall is my favourite time of year but I'll take anything warm right now.

I have my decorations up for the holidays. Two of my faves are the ceramic trees my grandmother passed down to me, which were her grandmothers (so my 2 time great grandma), and I love them to pieces. I'm always so scared when I put them away every year that they will get broken. I've been so, so lucky. 

I haven't done much wrapping of presents yet. With how fast the holidays arrived, it doesn't really feel like Christmas is upon us. At least not for me. Seems like we skipped a number of months. 

I celebrated my birthday yesterday. It was fantastic. My kids were all home throughout the couple days, brought me cake and good food, lovely presents and lots of hugs and kisses. A Mom can't ask for more than that.

This past week, I also had a brand new release come out! Cover Me is a May/December (Older Woman/Younger Man) Contemporary Erotic Romance that was a lot of fun to write. It released at Evernight Publishing -- where it's currently 25% off right now.

Until next month, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year.  

Winter, Wood, Coming Soon from Kacey (@KaceyHammell) #Writer #Author #Romance

Good morning all! I hope you've had a great summer, and fall is shaping up to be awesome for you. I can't believe it's November already!! I'm about 3/4 through my Christmas buying. Our kids are getting older and while the presents increase in price, they don't need as much. So the shopping is going well and quite quickly but I've found doing most of it online saves so, so much hassle. I mean, our mall is already congested with people every day, traffic is a heart attack waiting to happen and it's impossible to get down any aisles in some stores as they are also congested. And I like buying people things that aren't always found in stores so doing it online makes it fun to find those unique gifts for everyone.

I helped the hubby with a lot of wood cutting and piling over the last few months. Many days looked like this ... 

 

and were a lot of fun. For the most part! It is hard, back breaking work sometimes but he and I enjoyed it. Plus, it's a necessity. We need it to keep our tushies warm in the winter and we have enough acreage to do it ourselves.

In writing news, Evernight Publishing has contracted 3 of my stories in the last few weeks. Coming up are -- 

COVER ME (Contemporary Erotic Romance) -- Older woman/younger man

PAYBACK'S A BITCH (Contemporary Erotic Romance) -- Previous release, scene added and re-edited for re-release

GUARDING HIS ANCHOR (Suspense/Contemporary Erotic Romance) -- Canadian Muscle Book 2 

I'm super thrilled to have new books coming out and am grateful that the last year is over. It was a difficult one but I've grown in strength and knowledge that I can't control everything. 

I am currently writing the sequel to "Stirring Up Dirty" (Stirred by Love series), and am enjoying the characters again. It's always refreshing to return to old characters and catch up on their lives.




That's all from me today. I'm off to work on my WIP and my newsletter.   See you next month.
