Can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve posted here, but if you don’t already know I’ve been hanging out a lot over on Tik Tok at @therealjennmanciniauthor and still have my Facebook Author Page going strong.

And I will admit that I’ve definitely slowed down when it comes to producing new work, but I promise that I’m doing my best to get back on track. I know that everyone can understand when life gets in the way of creative progress and boy have I had a few giant speed bumps over here. Without bringing you down too much, my son is a member of the Farmingdale High School Marching Band that was involved with that tragic bus accident that happened in September (September 21st 2023 to be exact - that Earth Wind and Fire Song will NEVER inspire the same good vibes ever again). And while we were very lucky and our son was physically unharmed, it’s been a difficult few months of grieving and processing for the entire community. My only real excuse is that I didn’t want to sit down and write something too dark or gloomy when that wasn’t my intention or inadvertently harm the integrity of the work I’d already done. With writing you have to go where your heart takes you and my heart was a little busted and bent. But, enough said about that. Let’s move right along…

I was mid-work on the sequel to Annihilation’s Song when I was temporarily sidelined and am excited to delve back into my alien romance universe. As a little holiday treat, Annihilation’s Song will be free over at Amazon from December 23 - December 27, 2023, so if you haven’t read it or want to gift it to a friend, hop on over there and snag your copy.

As always, thanks for being a fan and for your support. You are very much appreciated and loved. Happy Holidays to all and the happiest, healthiest 2024 to you and yours.
