If you like a good ‘Hallmark’ movie, you will definitely want to keep your eye on her web page for future announcements on the release date of <em>Emily’s Next Chapter</em>. If the last few processes come together quickly, I’m going to say the end of June 2025. Otherwise, July.</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Author <a href="https://www.foxpointepublishing.com/author-amy-gregg-1" rel="nofollow" style="color:#891038 !important;">Amy Gregg</a> has her second novel in the ‘Accidental Farmer Mystery Series’ going into editing this week. If things move along smoothly, I’d go out on a limb and say we might see that release toward the end of 2025. Still too early to say for sure, but fingers crossed. </p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Editing is wrapping up on the debut YA Adventure/Mystery Fiction novel from <a href="https://www.foxpointepublishing.com/author-andrew-nelson" rel="nofollow" style="color:#891038 !important;">Andrew Nelson</a>. No release date yet, but once the editing is done, things tend to move a bit quicker. I should know more by the next quarterly newsletter which will be sent out in July from Wisconsin.</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">For myself, the <a href="https://www.foxpointepublishing.com/jellybeans" rel="nofollow" style="color:#891038 !important;">JELLYBEANS Coloring &amp; Activity Book </a>goes into design in April/May. That book is long overdue since I don’t sit still very much. I will say though, with the amount of designing needed, I’d say a release date of late summer/early autumn.  There’s never enough time in the day. ;-)</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">We have a few other projects in the works, too.  A couple of Children’s books, a debut YA novel, one or two non-fictions are coming in, and at least one other fiction novel to be released between 2025/26.</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">On my way north, I’ll be stopping at various bookstores &amp; libraries, sharing the Fox Pointe catalogue with buyers; the perpetual sales trip. Depending on how the summer schedule pans out, I may do a community event or two for book sales and promotion of Fox Pointe Publishing’s authors.</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Well, that’s about it for what I can think of to report from the desert. I’ll be on the road soon and gathering new memories and meeting new people - telling them all about our books.  If you’d like to learn more about the books, please click on either the book covers or the authors’ pictures, and that’ll put you right where you need to be in order to learn more.  Please support our authors and buy your books from them, directly. #supportsmallbusinesses</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">+++++++++++++++++++++++++++</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">An EXTRA that has nothing to do with books:<br>I’ll add in, if you’re interested in my adventures of being out on the open road, on the permanent sales trip I’ve found myself, you can check out and subscribe to my YouTube Channel* <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@wyrdnwylde" rel="nofollow" style="color:#891038 !important;">https://www.youtube.com/@wyrdnwylde</a>  Granted, it has nothing to do with books, or at least not directly (I wouldn’t be on a permanent sales trip if I didn’t have something to sell, so it’s sort of related.) But I put this channel together so my kids could keep tabs on their crazy mom, and I could look back at my adventures and wonder who the ‘nice lady’ is on the videos when my memory starts going. Oh, who am I kidding? My memory has already started disappearing…  ;-)</p><p class="" style="color:inherit;font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;margin-bottom:0;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">*My YT Channel has nothing to do with professionalism or formality.  It’s all for fun and you’ll see me in my pajamas, and at different events, and all of my trials and tribulations of being an RV owner, etc.  This vlog is strictly for entertainment.</p>
