Well, it has been a pretty happening year for all of us I thing. We just wanted to wish everyone a Happy 2023 Holiday Season and the beginnings of a great new year. We were able to get the first two childrens\/young adults books republished. They are now available in paperback, hardback, eBook and even audiobook formats for everyone to enjoy. Check their pages Enchanted Caravan<\/a> and Carnival Gypsy <\/a>for the links to purchase your favorite style of story.
\n<\/p>\n

There seems to be some controversy about who gets to republished the next 8 books so please stay tuned for more on that. The magazine stories may be published in an anthologybook sometime this year. As soon as I get the go ahead for that we will let you know. I keep finding new ones – check the Magazine page<\/a> for a listing. If you know of any other please contact me using the CONTACT US<\/a> form and let me know the name of the magazine\/newspaper and date published. <\/p>\n

New Questionnaire for DG Fans about Audiobooks<\/h3>\n

I have updated all of the book pages for the Pollifax series and the non-series books with new Universal Book Links so that you can find the book you would like to purchase\/share and where you can get in your favorite format. I remembered listing to CDs of the books on long car rides and commutes each morning. Now we can download them to our phones and tablets to enjoy all the time. There is an audiobook for each of the Mrs Pollifax books and 6 of the 9 non-series books. In order to get the last three converted over I havee created a form for everyone to fill out so that I can send it to Ms. Gilman’s agent to perhaps get these converted over in 2024. It seems a same to have only three not done yet. Please Click on the link below and fill out the form. It will only take a few minutes. Share the link with your friends, family and co-workers as well as on all of your social media pages. (Of course none of the children’s books have been done either but we will work on that later)<\/em>.<\/p>\n
