January 2020: Hospitals and Healers

February 3, 2020 By Ellen Leave a Comment

I don’t quite know what happened to January. It rushed by with a big chunk of it taken up by a short stint in hospital for the poor Fox (don’t worry, he’s recovering well), as well as some flaring of my own chronic pain.

I’ve been working on Cara and the Hacker, the next book in the series, although I had a bad few days where I lost a small chunk (migrating technology to a new laptop never goes quite as smoothly as you think!) which I need to re-write.

Despite all this, Cara’s adventures are progressing, possibly because I was writing a scene with a grumpy male energetic in a hospital room being treated by our heroine Cara – I’m considering January helpful background research! The hospital room is in a Healer Rehabilitation Centre in the style of the building in the picture, so I’ve been looking at plenty of these beautiful and somewhat gothic buildings to help me set the scene.

Reader Recommendations!

Last month I shared how I was waiting for Emerald Blaze, the next book released in my favourite series, but it’s not out until August. Silvia emailed to recommend Smoke Bitten by Patricia Briggs, out on March 17 (I have it on order!) and also Ilona Andrews’ Innkeeper series, with a new novella that came out in January, Sweep With Me (bought immediately 🙂 ).

If you have other suggestions, let me know in the comments.
