Skywalkers... new release

Hi
We've settled into lovely autumn days, although the nights are getting chilly. It's still nice weather for those early morning walks. This is what I do on non-gym days to compensate for the hours I spend sitting at the computer. The beach is often the focus on those walks, and in the morning light, it looks so calm.
I have received the suggestion that the timing of these newsletters is too frequent. I have been sending them fortnightly, but definitely don't want to flood your in-boxes. For that reason, I will drop back to 4-weekly, unless there is something specific I want to share with you, such as a new promotion or new release. If you have any thoughts on this, let me know. emily@emilyhussey.com.au.
regards
Emily

SKYWALKERS
by Dorothy Shorne
This project has been bubbling away for some time with my alter ego, Dorothy Shorne. It is finally ready for pre-order, with the eBook becoming available on 6 June. The print version will be available in early June also, though I don't have an exact date.
Rooftop shadows hide more than storms.
Only fools would be out on a rooftop on a wild, stormy night… and those with nefarious intentions. All Riley wants is to stay out of the weather, and stay out of trouble, but trouble comes looking for him.
The Skywalkers often emerge when the city shuts down for other folk. They are the ones who live above everyone else and keep the city and its buildings running. They are a loose-knit group who support and look out for each other.
When a possible murder disrupts the predictable pattern of his life, Riley finds himself at the centre of unwanted attention. More than that, it seems his life is also at risk. Where are the Skywalkers when he needs them?
A heritage consultant, a ginger cat, and a retired concert pianist with a past all play a role in Riley’s desperate attempts to understand who is framing him, and why. From a high vantage point, it seems he may end up as another stain on the footpath.

What was your vote?
Safe Harbour in Sandy Bay
Option A Option B
Last newsletter, I asked for comments on the two draft covers that I am considering for the next book in the Sandy Bay series. Overwhelming feedback was that readers preferred Option A. I am still working on the early chapters, so there will be a few months before this book becomes available. Thank you to everyone who took the time to respond.

The Last Farewell
Having to organise a funeral at short notice is stressful. This book has evolved from my time spent as a funeral celebrant, and assists both the bereaved who are faced with decisions, and the celebrant who is helping them to craft the best funeral possible. Can also be used when creating memorial ceremonies, or for interment of ashes.

Roadmap to the Seventies
I am involved in a project related to how people of this age differ to previous generations, and how they are facing the future. If you or anyone you know falls into this age group, I'd love to seek your views. I'd especially like to get input from people who live in countries other than Australia. This is the link to access the survey.
Kind regards
