A limited number of special commemorative handcrafted 50th Book - book covers will be available in my online store beginning October 7.
Dear Reader,
In the famous words of my favorite song from the Pointer Sisters . . . “I’m So Excited!!!” This month leads into a number of special events, which I will be sharing with all of you. Some of them are history in the making.
First there is the celebration revolving around my 50th book. Little did I know when I released my first book, Tonight and Forever, back in 1995 that it would be the ground breaking event for all my other books. I had no idea that Justin Madaris . . . along with his brothers, Dex and CIayton, would cause such a stir and that years later this stir hasn’t settled.
And now my 50th book introduces some of their younger cousins like Slade Madaris in Slow Burn.
I am excited about the release of Slow Burn because it shows that even after twelve years my readers’ love for the Madaris family is still strong. To mark this special event, a special book-trailer is being released and will be sent to each of you personally in the coming weeks. Please view it and share it with your family and friends. I’m hoping it will pique your interest in the book!
I’ve also updated my 2008 book schedule at the end of the newsletter. There will be a number of Brenda Jackson novels – original stories and reissues – for you to enjoy!!
As always I want to thank all of my readers for supporting me through the first 50 books and I look forward to sharing my 100th book with you as well.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Happy birthday to all my readers whose birthdays are in September. I hope that you have many more.
