Hi! How is everyone? I’m Connor, Alyssa’s son (that’s me on our Alaska trip!)  I’m the new hire – Director of Merchandising (and Sanity), and I look forward to working with everybody. As you may know, I’ve been part of the Tiger’s Eye Mysteries from the beginning—love Tess and Jack and I have so much fun helping Mom think up wild situations and supernatural characters.  (By the way, the music box was TOTALLY my idea. And the discounted, unlabeled potions bin too!) The problem is, my mom is a little nuts (as she’s the first to admit). She will drive herself into the ground trying to meet deadlines and not let you down, in spite of migraines and depression, and you see how that has worked out over the past two horrible pandemic years. So I’m going to be managing schedules for a while. We’re doing this: Eagle Eye is done and in edits and will (finally!) be out May 15. A Dead End Christmas is also done and will be in final edits after 5/10 and will be out May 30 (a Memorial Day reading treat!). Eye for an Eye is in progress and will be finalized and edited and out June 27. Eye on the Ball is planned for July 25 (the cover is REALLY GREAT, we’ll do a cover reveal soon!) More Than Meets the Eye is planned for September 30 (subject to natural disasters, meteorites, leprechaun invasions) Redemption’s Edge in the Vampire Motorcycle Club universe is still scheduled for November 29. I’ll be talking about merchandise ideas and opportunities next month – watch this space! Thanks again–and thank you for your kindness and patience. There have been times Mom is ready to give up on this writing thing, but the kindness of her lovely readers keeps her going. Sincerely, Connor PS If you have questions for me, reply to this post. Thanks! We’ll be posting on a more regular basis too. PSS Atlantis is still on hold while we figure things out. We’ll announce it here the minute we have concrete plans.
