2015 has now given away to a new year. I just wanted to take a moment to reflect. \u00a0Here is what 2015 has meant:<\/p>\n

27,000 visits to this blog.<\/p>\n

68,000 unique visitors to ChristianRegency.com<\/p>\n

181,000 visits to ChristianRegency.com<\/p>\n

1.9 Million hits to ChristianRegency.com<\/p>\n

This is exciting. It means the content that has been built up over the years has meaning to a great many.<\/p>\n

For me personally 2015 was a year of freedom. I embraced being a hybrid author fully, releasing books that traditional publishing\u00a0felt were too much of a niche, being diverse in foils, faces, and faith. It has been a great learning experience and very fulfilling reaching readers, giving them something delightfully different.\u00a0So here are my numbers.<\/p>\n

1 full novel, Unmasked Heart<\/a><\/p>\n

1 serialized novel (4 episodes) The Bargain<\/a><\/p>\n

Released 2 audio books: Unmasked Heart and Swept Away<\/p>\n

36,000 copies of my books are now parked on folks Kindles and iPads around the world.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So what is on tap for 2016? Expectation.<\/p>\n

1 Chronicles 4:10<\/p>\n

And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, \u201cOh that Thou wouldest bless me indeed and enlarge my borders, and that Thine hand might be with me and that Thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me!\u201d And God granted him that which he requested.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

More novels. More audiobooks. More research. More connecting with peers and readers. More fun.<\/p>\n

\"Multicultural<\/a>
Multicultural Historical Regency Romance<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I leave with you two nuggets. If you have never tried one of my Novels, Swept Away<\/a> will be free 1\/2\/2016 at Amazon. \u00a0And if you are looking for something different, my latest serialized novel which launched\u00a0today: married hero and heroine steeped in suspense\u00a0in Regency London, Unveiling Love<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So I wish you all a happy and blessed New Year.<\/p>\n
