My friends and I are gearing up for the release of our Love, Christmas Romance Collection.
This holiday romance collection with each novella bearing the title of a popular Christmas song was first conceived in January of this year.
We've been working on it one way or another since then, and now we're in the agonies of promotion because the box set publishes Tuesday, October 18.
With 20 all-new novellas by New York Times, USA Today, and national bestselling authors, we have high hopes that the collection will please readers immensely.

I look forward to reading this box set, Joan. You and some of my other favorite authors are included. Best wishes for megasales.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Caroline. These box sets get a little easier with every one I do.
DeleteWow, you have been busy. That anthology sounds great. i love novellas
ReplyDeleteThese collections are a lot of work, but in a way I appreciated having the deadline because it made me get it done! I don't know if it's lack of time or what, but I find myself really enjoying the novella length--writing and reading them.
DeleteI can't wait to read! I'm singing Last Christmas in my head now!
ReplyDelete*LOL* I know what you mean. I know every word of that song by heart now. Played it incessantly while writing this story just to get in the Christmas mood which is hard when it's nearly 100 degrees outside.
