After a long pause, a new story [a message to the readers]

Dear readers,

First, thank you. To those of you still visiting this blog after all this time, your patience and loyalty mean more than I can say.

It’s been over a year since I last published a story here. Part of that silence was shaped by Lisa’s passing: a difficult moment to work through, one that weighed heavily on my inspiration. For a while, the idea of writing became tangled with a sense of “duty,” of needing to deliver regularly. But writing novels about two of my favorite people should always be a joy, never an obligation.

That’s why I’m so glad to finally share a new story with you. It’s called In the Dark, and it’s a work of love – written for the pleasure of writing itself. It’s an intimate, three-part novel that explores Michael and Lisa’s relationship across time, with all the intensity, tenderness and complexity that make them so fascinating.

Part 1 will be published today, August 23. Part 2 will follow on August 26, and the final part will arrive on August 29 – Michael’s birthday, a date of course chosen with meaning.

Your comments are always welcome, and I’d love to hear what you think of In the Dark – hopefully the first of a new series of novels written and shared with the same spirit.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you and… welcome back!

The author
