It's been too long!

Hi there, remember me?
Apology and Update:
I want to apologise for not being in touch for a while. I’ve been busy working on lots of writing projects, which I’m really excited to finally be able to share with you.
I’m thrilled to say that I now have a fabulous agent who is currently submitting three new stories for me; a sweet, feel-good contemporary romance, and two clean, light-hearted romantasies!
The feedback from top publishers has been amazing and really encouraging on all three books, but I have yet to secure a contract offer, or offers. YET! Fingers crossed someone will pick them up soon. 😊
I have to admit I’ve been a little impatient while waiting to hear back… okay, I got very impatient! Traditional publishing is soooo slow, lol!
So, in the meantime, I decided to dive into a brand new series set in the picturesque seaside town of Cosy Cove, which I intend to self-publish under my new pen name, Abbey Hicks.
Set on the south coast of England and inspired by a few of the towns and beaches near to where I live, Cosy Cove is a place where the ocean’s waves carry whispers of love and every corner of the town holds a story waiting to be told. From the welcoming café along the promenade to the charming artisan candle shop and the quaint flower shop on the cobbled main street, I hope you’ll fall in love with the town and its residents just as much as I have.
I know some of you prefer my spicier books, like the Love Bites, A Dating Agency for Paranormals series, but I am moving away from that and prefer to write sweet-no-heat stories now.
If you’re interested in continuing to receive emails by me writing as Abbey Hicks, would you mind filling out the form below please? It's just so I don't send you bookish things that you're not interested in.
Are you still reading? Great! As a way to introduce you to Cosy Cove and its quirky, lovable residents, I’ve written a short story called “Cupcakes and Kisses in Cosy Cove” which you can read for FREE!

If clean and wholesome stories don't interest you, that's okay, I understand. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all your support over the last few years. It's been quite a journey!
Hope to speak to you soon,
Bye for now,
Abbey MacMunn (now writing as Abbey Hicks)
