Hi friends,

Thanks for all your well wishes for our adventure across the United States with four kids, a broken toe, kidney stones again, a teen driver, TONS of road construction, and plentiful summer storms, both beautiful and some a bit terrifying - especially the lightning and winds at night:

Also, lots of hay bales:

All after tearful goodbyes to our amazing family (this is up in Wyoming where we spent a couple of days away from civilization - such a nice break!):

Plus, after a scare of flank pain just before the long drive, I survived with ibuprofen and left FOUR kidney stones at a random rest stop in Nebraska . . . though only one was very big. (I did take a picture, lol, but some of you probably don't want to see them, so . . .) Good riddance! :)

We arrived home late and everyone fell gratefully into their own beds, though my 6-year-old insisted the carpet in our house had somehow changed. LOL. I guess our memories aren't what we think they are.

And while I was on vacation, we started our grand sale of the Aftermath series, with a few hiccups tying to coordinate the $0.99 sale pricing of the first five books.

If you didn't catch the deal, books 1, 2, 3, and 5 are still 99c in the US store until 11 am EST (Sorry, the UK sale already ended). Somehow #4 ended up on a different schedule, starting and ending a day before the others?

Here's the link to the series page to grab any you're missing:

Aftermath Series US

I'm sending this email super early on Friday to hopefully help a few of you catch the deal before it's over.

Thanks again for all your support!

All the best,

— Misty :)

Misty's Writing Update:

Thanks to all of your support, our Aftermath series is helping fund our future writing, so expect to see new series from both Steph and me - probably at the start of next year.

We're also getting a much better grasp of the business side of writing, which includes a lot of social media work and learning the basics of the three most-used ad platforms: Amazon, Facebook and Bookbub.

Of course, the most effective advertising is word of mouth, friend-to-friend, or an upbeat and positive review on Amazon, Bookbub or Goodreads. So, thanks to all of you who have mentioned our books to your friends, shared our FB posts and taken the time to write awesome reviews!

All of your help is really helping Steph and I take the author thing from a hobby to something closer to a full time venture.

You're the best!

— Misty :)
