In the end, we always return to the sea.

Finally, I am at liberty to reveal a secret I have been keeping and gnawing on for far too long (and which was, in its own way, the reason the current projects posts had to be put on unannounced hiatus):

The Atargatis was lost with all hands. It's time to go back out to sea.

Into the Drowning Deep is a full-length follow-up to my novella, "Rolling in the Deep." Set seven years later, it follows the crew of the Melusine as they set out to discover, once and for all, what really happened when the sea was filled with light and the wind offered no safety.

I am so excited.

I am excited for a lot of reasons. Mermaids; science; murder. The best things in life.

Into the Drowning Deep will be released in November 2017, and can be pre-ordered now from a major retailer or independent bookseller near you.

OMG!! Rolling in the Deep was fantastic - and, by the way, the only piece of fiction I've ever read that actually caused me to have a nightmare after reading it :P - AND NOW THERE WILL BE A SEQUEL, AAAWWW YEEESSS.

Bit of a bunny trail, but I would like to add that one of my first and perhaps most nonsensical thoughts upon coming home to the aftermath of a small but VERY SMOKY house fire a year and a half ago was "MY SIGNED AND NUMBERED LIMITED-EDITION SEANANS. :(" I nearly cried when they, along with some irreplaceable signed books of my husband's, came back from the cleaners in perfectly good shape.

In short, your stories are treasured. ♥

I AM TOO. THEY ARE SPECIAL TO ME <3

I fretted about them and several other small treasures until they came back from the cleaners and I could touch them again. They live to be read again!
