Locke's Promotional Newsletter: December 2022

Dear Reader,

I am putting this December newsletter out a little early because the discounts I am mentioning are only available for a few more days.

First is the 99 cent discount of the special Christmas novel Guardians of Time by author Sarah Woodbury (a friend and a historical fiction colleague.) While this book comes in the middle of her After Cilmeri series, it can be read as a stand alone and is a delightful introduction to the series as a whole. This series combines two of my favorite genres: historical fiction (in this case Medieval Wales) and science fiction (time travel.) Oh, and there is a nice bit of romance in the book as well. Do give it a try.

Second is a reminder of my audiobooks that have been discounted and will go back to their original price on December 7th.

Finally, a report that I am still making good progress on Tides of Acerba. I am still hoping to have the draft done this month, but in the interim, I decided to give the whole series a little face-lift (called rebranding.) So, below you are going to see the new covers for Between Mountain and Sea, Under Two Moons, Through Ddaera’s Touch, and TA DA! the cover for Tides of Acerba, this fourth book in the series I am working on! Bless Sarah Woodbury for working with me and creating them. As you can see, she’s a talented cover artist as well as writer.

Have a lovely holiday, however you celebrate, and I will meet you back here in January, of 2023!

M. Louisa Locke

Guardians of Time by Sarah Woodbury on Kindle AppleBooks Kobo Nook and GooglePlay

After a 21st-century bus gets lost in medieval Wales, time-traveling king David must find a way to return the passengers to their own era. A sweeping tale of magic, valor, and romance! --Bookbub

Christmas 1292. It had taken time for Bridget to adjust to the medieval world after arriving on the Cardiff bus. As former military, the adjustment had been relatively easy for Peter. What was harder for him was conveying to anyone else what he was feeling, particularly to a woman he really liked. So when Bridget announces she's not returning to the modern world with David but staying in the middle ages--and punctuates her announcement by kissing him, Peter has no choice but to stay too.

And good thing he did, because, like always, things don't go as planned, either in the modern world world or in the medieval one. Time to alter history and save the medieval kingdom of Wales ... again.
