Dear Reader,
This past year has been full of surprises, heartaches and tribulations. Due to this my schedule had to be pushed back. Fortunately I was able to sit down in January and finish The Ripple Effect.
I wasn’t entirely certain what would happen in the story, although I had a general idea. True urban fantasy is dark, gritty, and emotional. Rhiannon’s journey was never meant to be easy. She continues to evolve and learn as she goes. In any event, I do hope you enjoyed The Ripple Effect. I have not yet started Edge of Darkness (book four in the Rhiannon’s Law series), so there is no sneak peek this time around. For that I apologize. Sales have fluctuated and currently the fate of the series is up in the air. Despite my love of the Rhiannon’s Law series, it continues to be my most heavily pirated work. I publish to make a living. As a mother of four, I have a family to support.
If you’ve experienced Rhiannon’s journey via an outlet that doesn’t support the books financially, it means there is a good chance I won’t continue publishing the series. I’m taking a moment to ask you—here and now—to stop. Don’t distribute my work without permission. If there is no incentive to put in the time, I won’t. It’s not that I don’t care. It’s that I don’t have the luxury of writing stories for free. Simple as that.
Personally, I’m crossing my fingers and hoping for the best. What’s happened so far is just the tip of the iceberg. So much more is going to take place. I’d love to share those things with all of you.
We’ll see.
Be sure to check my blog from time to time for updates on the series, as well as other news. I’ve got a few vignettes I’d like to create, so perhaps you can gain a deeper insight into the stories and the characters. If time permits, I’ll share them with you. For those who continue to support the series, I can’t thank you enough. You are the reason I can continue doing what I love. Thank you for allowing me to write for a living.
As always, my family and I thank you for your continued support.
All My Best,
Jaime AKA J.A. Saare
