										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>The cats are winning!</h1>
<p>I recently had an interview request that requested a bio, a headshot, and &#8230; a picture of my cats. This was NOT for a pet-related blog, so I laughed out loud when I read the request.</p>
<p>It appears my cats are catching up with me on the social media racetrack.</p>
<p>I blame Loki, especially, for winning the popularity contest. Two of his pictures were voted to be in my 2026 Traveling with Ann calendar.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s a camera ham and comes running whenever he sees me taking pictures with my phone, including the photo above when he decided he wanted to be in one of the calendar promo shots.</p>
<p>Anyway, if I can train the cats to be my butler, I&#8217;ll be a go with playing second fiddle to a feline or two. And that&#8217;s a capital IF &#8230; ha ha ha ha ha.</p>
<h3>In this newsletter &#8230;</h3>
<p>**It&#8217;s time for another online booksigning with yours truly. We&#8217;re having the signing just before Thanksgiving this year so that we can beat the crazy times at the post office and get ahead of the mailing madness.</p>
<p>**Join my Review Crew and throw your hat in the ring to win some cool prizes.</p>
<p>**Head over to Zazzle.com and grab a beautiful 2026 Traveling with Ann wall calendar (see link in the One Liners section at the end of the newsletter).</p>
<p>I hope your November is full of fun fall festivities!</p>
<p>Ann</p>

<h2>PRIZES! PRIZES! PRIZES!</h2>
<p><strong>To enter the drawing, leave a review for <em>Chewed Up by the Jungle</em>!</strong></p>
<h4></h4>
<h4>HAVE YOU READ MY NEWEST BOOK, CHEWED UP BY THE JUNGLE?</h4>
<p>If so, I&#8217;d love you to join my review crew! It&#8217;s easy peasy (oh, and there are prizes to be won, too).</p>
<p><strong>WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL WITH REVIEWS?</strong></p>
<p>Over the years, I have been a fortunate author. Many kind readers have taken the time to write reviews for my books on Amazon, Goodreads, Barnes &amp; Noble, Kobo, etc. These reviews have lured new-to-me readers to give my books a try, which in turn makes each new release more exciting and keeps me typing away at my keyboard while new stories flow onto the pages. It&#8217;s a wonderful circle and I am so appreciative that I can keep telling stories about my characters&#8217; adventures year after year.</p>
<p><strong>WHAT IS A REVIEW CREW?</strong></p>
<p>I decided to change things up this year and reward readers who leave reviews sprinkled here and there.</p>
<p><strong>HOW DOES THIS WORK?</strong></p>
<p>1. Write and post a review for <em>Chewed Up by the Jungle</em> with Amazon, Goodreads, Kobo, Barnes &amp; Noble, Apple, the local newspaper, a truckstop bathroom stall door, mass fliers dropped from an airplane, etc&#8211;you get the picture.</p>
<p>2. Email me a link to your review (<strong>or</strong> send a copy of it) <strong>and your mailing address</strong>. Be sure to let me know where you left the review. <strong>Send it to:</strong> <strong><span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="mailto:AnnCharlesAuthor@gmail.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AnnCharlesAuthor@gmail.com</a></span> with BOOK REVIEW in the Subject line.</strong></p>
<p>3. Go out and share the review on another platform and send me that information, too. <em>You can throw your hat into the ring multiple times for the drawing. (See the image above for some of the prizes to be won.)</em></td>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>More Treats! More Treats!</h2>
<h4></h4>
<h3>October Newsletter PART 2 &#8230; a new book for you!</h3>
<p>When I was prepping to write the third book in the Dig Site Mystery series, I thought I&#8217;d try to write a shorter book than usual.</p>
<p><em>(My usual is about 120,000 words.)</em></p>
<p>Yeah. Right. Sometimes I think that I sniffed too much paint as a kid.</p>
<p><em>(That would certainly help explain these character voices in my head that like to weave together multiple plotlines while telling their stories.)</em></p>
<p>It turned out that I did NOT write a shorter book. In fact, this latest in the Dig Site Mystery series is one of my longer tales, and I added some fun extras that I haven&#8217;t included before in my other books.</p>
<p><em>(Experimenting with different story elements and styles is what keeps writing exciting for me.)</em></p>
<p>You&#8217;ll see what I mean when you read <em>Chewed Up by the Jungle</em>.</p>
<h3>Another book down &#8230; and a lot more to come!</h3>
<p>Can you believe I&#8217;m almost 40-books-old in author age?</p>
<p><em>(Actually, if you count the other books I wrote prior to publishing my first, I&#8217;m over 40, but those were all practice runs.)</em></p>
<p>For a girl who didn&#8217;t want to be an archaeologist because there was too much writing involved, I seem to enjoy pecking away at a keyboard.</p>
<p><em>(Although these days, I am trying to spend more time with my family, too.)</em></p>
<p>I also enjoy drinking beverages while I write. For my birthday, I often line up various drinks to have throughout the day.</p>
<p><em>(This has become such a thing that my daughter made me a cool wooden drink carrier for Mother&#8217;s Day this year so that I can carry 4 drinks to my office at once. FOUR. Ha! I love the way her gift-making mind works.)</em></p>
<p>I&#8217;m always looking for fun new drinks</p>
<p><em>(Especially non-alcoholic ones so that I can write coherently while sipping, LOL.) </em></p>
<p><strong>When you finish reading through this short newsletter, I&#8217;d love it if you replied and let me know some drinks you enjoy (alcoholic or not).</strong></p>
<p>(I learned about several new candy mixes after the last newsletter. Thank you to ALL who wrote to me and shared your favorites.)</p>
<p>Okay, enough from these two voices rambling on in my head.</p>
<p><em>(Yeah! On to the exciting stuff!)</em></p>
<h3>In this newsletter &#8230;</h3>
<p>**FINALLY! <strong>The brand-freaking-new ebook version of <em>Chewed Up by the Jungle</em> (Dig Site #3) is available</strong> to order from my store!</p>
<p>**REMEMBER &#8230; In case you haven&#8217;t bought the first ebook in the Dig Site series yet, <em>Look What the Wind Blew In</em> (Dig Site #1) is on sale <strong>THIS MONTH ONLY</strong> over on Amazon for US and Canadian folks.</p>
<p>**It&#8217;s <strong>2026 calendar voting time</strong> over on my website!</p>
<p>Raise a glass of your favorite October drink with me to celebrate another new book!</p>
<p>Ann</p>

</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Whatever lies in wait in the jungle isn’t just history &#8230; it’s hungry!</strong></p>
<p>Deep in the Yucatán Peninsula sits a long forgotten, mysterious site—lost to time, swallowed by the jungle, haunted by ancient secrets.</p>
<p>Archaeologist Dr. Angélica García is chasing clues, and she will stop at nothing to uncover the site’s history. Was it a sacred center? A place of long-forgotten rituals? Or something far more sinister?</p>
<p>Quint Parker, a sharp-eyed photojournalist, is chasing Angélica. He never signed up for old curses, creepy whispers in the shadows, or man-eating mosquitoes. He just wants to make sure his girlfriend makes it out of the jungle—alive.</p>
<p>The deeper they dig into the past, the more they must confront a deadly truth: <em>Some places should never be disturbed!</em></p>

<h1>Let the Treats Begin!</h1>
<h4></h4>
<h3>October Newsletter PART 1 &#8230;</h3>
<p>I have to be honest with you about something that is often a tad controversial.</p>
<p>Something that I have been a fan of for as long as I can remember.</p>
<p>Something about which many (sadly) won&#8217;t agree.</p>
<p>But I&#8217;m going to share this with you anyway.</p>
<p>I LOVE candy corn. In particular, Brach&#8217;s candy corn made with real honey.</p>
<p>NOT those candy pumpkins though. Blah.</p>
<p>So, I know many of you are covering your eyes and shaking your heads, but I can&#8217;t help it.</p>
<p><strong>When you finish reading through this short newsletter, reply and let me know your favorite Halloween candy.</strong></p>
<h3>In this newsletter &#8230;</h3>
<p>**<em>Hip Deep in Bad Company</em> (Deadwood Undertaker #5) is now available as an audiobook narrated by Jason Culp (same as all of the previous books) through our Ann Charles online store! Grab your audiobook and escape to the wild and supernatural Old West this month!</p>
<p>**<em>Look What the Wind Blew In</em> (Dig Site #1) is on sale THIS MONTH ONLY over on Amazon for US and Canadian folks (SORRY, Amazon chose where to put it on sale, not me).</p>
<p>**Grab your FREE ebook (<em>New Witch on the Block</em>) from Louisa West.</p>
<p>**Check out the short video (over on my YouTube channel&#8211;see the LINK at the end of this email) that Sam and I made driving down Deadwood&#8217;s Main Street and up into Lead ending at the Open Cut near Prudence&#8217;s house.</p>
<p>Happy start of October!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Writing, writing, writing!</h2>
<p>I&#8217;m going to keep this puppy short and sweet, because I&#8217;m almost to the big exciting moment near the end of <em>Chewed Up by the Jungle</em> (Book 3 in the Dig Site Mystery series), and I want to get back to the jungle with the Dig Site crew before I miss out on what happens next.</p>
<h3><strong>Want to keep up on what&#8217;s going on here in my writing land in just a few minutes each week?</strong></h3>
<p>One of the easiest ways to find out what I&#8217;m doing in story-writing and story-marketing land is to &#8220;Subscribe&#8221; to my Ann Charles YouTube page and watch for my weekly Write-On! check-ins that are only 3 minutes long (or less).</p>
<p>There is NO COST to subscribe to my YouTube page and watch my videos. You only pay for YouTube IF you want to watch videos without commercials.</p>
<p>Me? I just use those commercial breaks to do what we used to in the old days when we had just 3 channels to watch &#8230; run to the kitchen and grab some chips from the cupboard.</p>
<p>Below is one of my latest Write-On! videos (only about 3 minutes long) where I show you some of the books I&#8217;m reading/using for research for the third book in the Dig Site Mystery series. Oh, and one of our cats makes an appearance.</p>
<p>Click on the video below to watch.</p>
<p><a title="Watch my YouTube video" href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/f0dpzpjz6mo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">My video is here!</a></p>
<hr />
<h2>Anyway &#8230; onto July&#8217;s lowdown:</h2>
<p>I have some great free stuff in store for you this month.</p>
<p>Next month, I am thinking I&#8217;ll split the newsletters in two, sending one in early August and another in late August, diving up the content so that the newsletters are shorter and quicker to read through.</p>
<p><em>If you have any thoughts on that, feel free to reply to this newsletter and let me know.</em></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Ann&#8217;s &amp; Sam&#8217;s schedule for Deadwood in August 2025</strong></li>
<li><strong>A FREE Ebook from the hilarious Robyn Peterman</strong></li>
<li><strong>A chance to win one of TWO prizes this month</strong></li>
<li><strong>And &#8230; another recipe from <em>Moon the Cook</em></strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Happy Jungle-filled July!</p>

<h2>Robyn Peterman</h2>
<p>NYT and USA Today best selling author, Robyn Peterman writes because the people inside her head won’t leave her alone until she gives them life on paper. She writes snarky, sexy, funny paranormal and snarky, sexy, funny contemporaries.</p>
<p>Her addictions include laughing really hard with friends, shoes (the expensive kind), Target, Coke (the drink LOL) with extra ice in a Yeti cup, bejeweled reading glasses, her kids, her super-hot hubby and collecting stray animals.</p>
<p>A former professional actress, with Broadway, film and T.V. credits, she now lives in the south with her family and too many animals to count. Writing gives her peace and makes her whole, plus having a job where she can work in her sweatpants works really well for her.</td>

<h2><em>Wrap Up &#8230;</em></h2>
<p>I&#8217;m almost done with Book 3 of the Dig Site Mystery series, <em>Chewed Up by the Jungle</em>. I hope to put up a pre-order button in August for a release in late September. I&#8217;ll include a link to that here in my newsletter in August.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m going to start reading through the Jackrabbit series again as soon as I ship Dig Site Book 3 off to my editor in August. I can&#8217;t wait to dive back in to Jackrabbit Junction and hang out at The Shaft with the Morgan sisters!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>This old dog needs your help to pull off my newest trick!</h2>
<p>Last fall I went to a conference where I met some amazing authors who gave me all sorts of ideas on new ways to have fun with readers.</p>
<p>One of the intriguing discussions I sat in on was about Kickstarter campaigns and opportunities to offer cool rewards for fans.</p>
<p>When I came home, Mr. Lucky and I began talking about what we could offer in one of these campaigns.</p>
<p>An idea began to take shape&#8211;an audiobook <strong>PRE-ORDER</strong> option for fans of the Deadwood Undertaker series!</p>
<h3><strong>BEST OF ALL&#8211;A way to offer ownership of the actual audiobook files!</strong></h3>
<p>&#8220;Ownership&#8221; would allow you to load the audiobook on any device you own, no matter if it&#8217;s a product from Amazon, B&amp;N, Apple, Samsung, or whatever. You can put it on your cell phone or your computer or wherever else you can listen to audio files.</p>
<p><span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hipdeepaudiobook/its-a-doggone-audiobook-hip-deep-in-bad-company" target="_blank" rel="noopener">This Kickstarter campaign</a></span> would also help us to pay for a HUMAN narrator for the 5th Deadwood Undertaker book, as in JASON CULP, who narrated the previous 4 books (rather than a much cheaper AI voice version of the story).</p>
<p><em>Note&#8211;Human talent is expensive, but we feel it&#8217;s worth every penny!</em></p>
<h2>HERE&#8217;S WHERE &amp; HOW I NEED YOUR HELP&#8230;</h2>
<p>We had to set a financial goal for the campaign ahead of time: $3000 in one month seemed like a reasonable goal.</p>
<p>So far, we are at 64% of this goal!</p>
<p>Yay!!! (Thank you to all who have stopped by and supported this new venture of ours!)</p>
<p><strong><em>HOWEVER, if we don&#8217;t make our goal, the whole project is cancelled and we go back to zero.</em> </strong></p>
<h2><strong>THERE ARE SOME AMAZING REWARDS AND DISCOUNTS for this project! </strong></h2>
<p><strong>Please</strong> head over to our <span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hipdeepaudiobook/its-a-doggone-audiobook-hip-deep-in-bad-company" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kickstarter campaign</a></span> and consider pre-ordering the audiobook of <em>Hip Deep in Bad Company </em>so we can hit our goal.</p>
<p>Also, check out the <strong>discounted deals</strong> on other audiobooks in the Deadwood Undertaker series and in the various reward tiers.</p>
<p>AND consider sharing news about our Kickstarter project with any friends who you think might love listening to the Deadwood Undertaker crew on their wild adventures!</p>
<p><em><strong><span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper">*** <a href="https://youtu.be/7q1IA4drpmY?si=oige84Bn906Cy_KQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Check out the video </a></span></strong>below that Sam and I made for more information.***</em></p>

<h2>Anyway &#8230;</h2>
<p>We&#8217;re really starting to cook here in Arizona, so it&#8217;s time to hole up in my writing cave and finish a book. YAY! Let the clackity-clacking on the keyboard begin!!</p>
<h3>Onto this month&#8217;s lowdown &#8230;</h3>
<p>I have some lovely stuff in store for you this month:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>PRE-ORDER the audiobook for <em>Hip Deep in Bad Company</em> for just $20 via our </strong><span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hipdeepaudiobook/its-a-doggone-audiobook-hip-deep-in-bad-company" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Kickstarter campaign</strong></a></span><strong>.</strong></li>
<li><strong>Ann&#8217;s &amp; Sam&#8217;s schedule for Deadwood in August 2025</strong></li>
<li><strong>A FREE Ebook from the amazing Jane Hinchey</strong></li>
<li><strong>A chance to win one of TWO prizes this month</strong></li>
<li><strong>And &#8230; another recipe from <em>Moon the Cook</em></strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Happy start of summer!</p>
<p>Ann</p>

<h2><em>Wrap Up &#8230;</em></h2>
<p>I&#8217;m still plugging away on Book 3 of the Dig Site Mystery series. I hope to put up a pre-order button in the next month when I figure out the estimated release date.</p>
<p>Deadwood Undertaker #6 is coming along, too. Mr. Lucky is building a fence around our back yard early each morning before the day gets too hot, and then he spends the afternoons inside at the keyboard hanging out with Rabbit, Boone, Hank, &amp; Clem (and all of the other fun characters in that series).</p>
<p>Oh, and we&#8217;re tearing apart our old back deck a little each week and trying to decide how much to rebuild. The Morgan sisters pop into my thoughts every time I look at the torn up deck. Their 7th book is next on my to-write list, so I&#8217;m getting inspired.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>So, I did a thing &#8230;</h2>
<p>&#8220;What now, Ann?&#8221; you ask yet again.</p>
<p>Well, it all started last year when I began getting frustrated because I couldn&#8217;t reach those on Facebook and Instagram who&#8217;d signed up to &#8220;Follow&#8221; me there or hit &#8220;Like&#8221; on my author page. I&#8217;d write and share a post, but then behind the scenes, I&#8217;d receive a message from the Facebook &#8220;gods&#8221; that they had allowed only 50 of my &#8220;Followers&#8221; to see the post. HOWEVER, if I&#8217;d pay $100, $200, sometimes even $300 to &#8220;boost&#8221; the post, then they would show it to another 500 followers, maybe even 1000 of them.</p>
<p>Grrrr.</p>
<p>On top of that baloney sandwich, pile on the messages from the Facebook overlord saying things like, &#8220;Good job, Ann! You have been putting up quality posts. We&#8217;re going to reward you by showing the posts to another 50 of your followers for FREE!&#8221;</p>
<p>Double grrrr!</p>
<p>Then, about a month ago, news came out that Facebook had paid a book pirating site for millions of already stolen books, wanting to use them to build their AI model. They had decided that paying authors would cost too much. Now, I know there isn&#8217;t much you can do to stop the AI monster these days, but&#8230;</p>
<p>Triple grrrr!!!</p>
<p>The final pickle on the top of this crap sandwich? They want me to start using their little AI &#8220;Purple Pal&#8221; robot as a moderator in my groups to answer any questions readers/followers ask me and to interact more than I do. It will be my helper buddy, using the AI they built off stolen books.</p>
<p>Enough!</p>
<p>Now you know why I suddenly began building more on my <span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@AnnCharlesAuthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link-id="151957122727282230">Ann Charles YouTube channel</a></span>. But I wanted to interact with those who were interested in more than just watching videos, so I started building over on Patreon, creating Ann&#8217;s Alpha Club. This will be a place where I can post fun stuff for fans of my books without having a middleman (aka Facebook, Instagram, etc) and their algorithm bouncers blocking the posts.</p>
<p>Below is a video (click to watch it) explaining a little more for those interested in joining me in <span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="http://patreon.com/AnnCharles" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link-id="151957122732525111">Ann&#8217;s Alpha Club on Patreon</a></span>, which you can access from your computer, tablet, or phone. There are different tiers available there&#8211;you can join for free and interact on general posts, like how Facebook used to be. Or, you can join one of the paid tier levels, which cost either $5/month or $7/month. In the paid tiers, I&#8217;ll be sharing things from behind the scenes, like my books before they are published and more. I&#8217;m not out to get rich here, just build a place where I have more control.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>This old dog&#8217;s latest new trick &#8230;</h2>
<p>&#8220;What now, Ann?&#8221; you ask, shaking your head.</p>
<p>Happy March! I&#8217;m trying something new over on my <span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@AnnCharlesAuthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link-id="149439153782654313">Ann Charles YouTube channel</a></span>. A way to interact with you in a new way that doesn&#8217;t require me to pay Facebook and Instagram bunches of money just to reach you. Also, several of my friends have had their Facebook accounts hacked and locked up, losing the ability to reach their friends and readers there, so I want to open another path for you and me to connect in case this happens to me.</p>
<p>For starters, I&#8217;m doing short check-ins each week, filling you in on what I&#8217;ve been up to and what I might be up to next. But this is just the beginning of what I&#8217;m planning. I&#8217;m going to be adding more and more over here, so please head over and <span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@AnnCharlesAuthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link-id="149439153786848619">SUBSCRIBE</a></span> to my channel.</p>
<p>Below is an example of a check in I recently shared. Click the red button to see it for yourself on YouTube.</p>

<h2>Anyway &#8230;</h2>
<p>We&#8217;re on spring break here at the moment for both my son&#8217;s college classes and my daughter&#8217;s high school final year. Yay! My son is taking this time to work more hours (he&#8217;s saving to buy his own vehicle). My daughter is working on creative projects&#8211;her outlet for stress and anxiety. The three college classes she&#8217;s taking in high school are really piling on the work, but she only has 8 weeks left!!!</p>
<p>Onto my current obsessions &#8230; <span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@MartijnDoolaard" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link-id="149439153793140079">Martijin Doolaard</a></span>, a photographer, filmmaker and travel writer from the Netherlands. Currently he is renovating and living in a remote stone cabin in the Italian Alps. Watching him on YouTube episode by episode as he brings this old cabin back to life is very relaxing. He&#8217;s truly an amazing filmmaker! I&#8217;m also watching a lot of videos about the Maya and archaeology. A really fun one I enjoyed recently is: <span class="ml-rte-link-wrapper"><a href="https://youtu.be/jq0n2F8gSWA?si=Egiml-GG9fudGQc0" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link-id="149439153796285808">Digging for the Truth: A Passage to the Maya Underworld by History.com</a></span>.</p>
<h3>Onto this month&#8217;s lowdown &#8230;</h3>
<p>I have some great stuff in store for you this month:</p>
<h4>News about our fun plans for our August 2025 visit to Deadwood (we hope to see some of you there!)</h4>
<h4>The incredible Yasmine Galenorn</h4>
<p><strong>A cool Maya Sun mug to check out over on my Zazzle store</strong></p>
<h4>And &#8230; check out another recipe from <em>Moon the Cook</em></h4>
<p>Thanks for sharing some March madness with me!</p>

<h2>Fun with Ann &amp; Sam: Deadwood 2025</h2>
<h3>August 20th-23rd</h3>
<p>Sam and I have been busy planning some fun for our visit to Deadwood this August. We hope that you can join us there for good food, book talk, cool classic cars, delicious chocolate, and more!</p>
<p>Here is what we have so far:</p>
<p><strong>Wednesday, August 20th</strong>&#8211;(We&#8217;re still planning this day&#8217;s event)</p>
<p><strong>Thursday, August 21st</strong>&#8211;Rapid City Library (A one hour book talk/book signing)</p>
<p><strong>Friday, August 22nd</strong>&#8211;History on the Lawn at the Historic Adams House in Deadwood (one hour talk)</p>
<p><strong>Saturday, August 23rd</strong>&#8211;Book signing and chocolates galore at Chubby Chipmunk Hand-dipped Chocolates (on Ann&#8217;s birthday&#8211;yay!)</p>
<p>&#8220;Kool Deadwood Nites&#8221; will be going on this week in Deadwood with daily free bands in town, classic cars, and so much more. Come celebrate with us during our first free August in almost two decades (now that both of our kids are finally high school graduates and we are free of school schedules).</p>
<p><em>Note: You don&#8217;t have to stay in Deadwood if hotels are hard to land. You can stay in neighboring towns and drive in for the events in Deadwood.</em></p>
<p><em>ALSO NOTE: I will be back in western South Dakota at the end of September for the 2025 South Dakota Festival of Books (set in Spearfish this year). So, if August doesn&#8217;t work out for your visit, September is a beautiful time to visit the Black Hills!<br />

<h2><em>Wrap Up </em></h2>
<h3><strong><em>And on the writing front &#8230;</em></strong></h3>
<p><em>Type-type-sweat-curse-type</em> &#8230; this is me pretending to be in the jungle as I write book 3 of the Dig Site series. It&#8217;s so much fun to be back with this crew, even though the bugs are annoying and I don&#8217;t love sleeping in tents in the jungle.</p>
<p>Deadwood Undertaker #6 is coming. Mr. Lucky is also busy taking care of work around our property now that spring has sprung here.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>I hope to see you over on YouTube as I keep growing my online channel.</p>

<p>(Darn it, now I&#8217;ll be hearing Barry Manilow sing that song all day.)</p>
<p>Behind the scenes, I&#8217;m writing to you through a new digital marketing software interface that has all sorts of fun bells and whistles IF I can figure out how to use them all. This new software offers options to add surveys and quizzes and other entertaining items in the monthly newsletter, so stay tuned for a variety of content going forward AFTER I finish writing Deadwood Book 14 and have some time on my hands to push buttons and more here. This reminds me of what&#8217;s going on behind the green curtain on <em>The Wizard of Oz</em>.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m heading to Florida this week for an author/writing industry conference. It&#8217;s someplace new for me&#8211;a beachfront resort on Saint Pete Beach. While I&#8217;m looking forward to visiting with several author friends, a good chunk of the time will be spent in workshops where I hope to learn about what&#8217;s new in the book industry. After a two year long hiatus of sorts from the writing and marketing world due to my parents&#8217; health issues, I feel out of it. I need to find out what to do going forward to keep things exciting for you and any new readers who find their way to Violet, Rabbit, Claire, Boone, Quint, Harvey, and the other colorful characters we hang with on the page.</p>
<p>My family is well. The kids are in school and college and getting used to the routine of both. When Sam is not writing, he&#8217;s working on some outdoor projects now that the weather is nicer. Me? I&#8217;m trying to stay healthy and strong in spite of sitting in a chair for long hours as I write, write, write.</p>
<p><strong>Now, for a quick preview of what&#8217;s in this newsletter:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Yummy new fall-fun recipe from our <em>Moon the Cook</em> cookbook</li>
<li>A podcast interview starring yours truly with a wonderful host, Edward Willett</li>
<li>An update on what&#8217;s coming your way next</li>
</ul>
<p>Thank you for your ongoing support and enjoy the beautiful month of September!</p>

<h2>Robyn Peterman</h2>
<p>NYT and USA Today best selling author, Robyn Peterman writes because the people inside her head won’t leave her alone until she gives them life on paper. She writes snarky, sexy, funny paranormal and snarky, sexy, funny contemporaries.</p>
<p>Her addictions include laughing really hard with friends, shoes (the expensive kind), Target, Coke (the drink LOL) with extra ice in a Yeti cup, bejeweled reading glasses, her kids, her super-hot hubby and collecting stray animals.</p>
<p>A former professional actress, with Broadway, film and T.V. credits, she now lives in the south with her family and too many animals to count. Writing gives her peace and makes her whole, plus having a job where she can work in her sweatpants works really well for her.</td>

<h2>Let&#8217;s Try Something New &#8230; a Video</h2>

<h2><strong><em>Wrap Up</em></strong></h2>
<p><strong><em>And on the writing front &#8230;</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>At the moment</strong>—I have about six chapters left to write of Deadwood Mystery series Book 14, <em>Cops &amp; Clobbers in Deadwood</em>. It isn&#8217;t available for pre-order yet. I&#8217;m just trying to keep up a full head of steam and reach the end after months of struggling to focus. I&#8217;m aiming for a mid-November release. Keep your fingers crossed and maybe offer a fresh fall apple or two to the writing gods for me on that, please.</p>
<p><strong>Also at the moment</strong>—Sam and I have come up with some great ideas for book 6 in the Deadwood Undertaker series. He is hitting the keys, too. We don&#8217;t have a release date for that book yet. We&#8217;re just hoping the waters stay calm when it comes to our parents and we can have that book out early next year.</p>
<p><strong>ALSO at the moment</strong>—I&#8217;m planning to keep writing as much as I can through the holidays in order to get book 3 in the Dig Site series rolling and out by spring of next year.</p>
<p><strong>OH, and ALSO&#8230;</strong>—There will be more Jackrabbit Junction series books. Kate is still dealing with pregnancy hormones (remember, it takes 9 months in STORY TIME to have a baby, not in real time, so she will be preggo for a while yet), Ronnie has loads of problems heading her way, and Claire and Mac are trying to run a bar and RV Park in the thick of the craziness down in the Arizona desert.</p>
<p>I hope you have a lovely start to Autumn!<br />
Ann</td>
