Happy March, Reader!

I'm going to try to keep this one short and sweet because... well... one, I'm supposed to be getting ready for work and two, I'm also supposed to be eating food and getting more coffee.

I'm attempting this after only one cup of coffee so if you get lost or find errors, well, you know there is a legal limit to function on caffeine and I am below it. Wish me luck!

First: New colors and fonts! I went to a publishing summit and one of the things they suggested was consistent colors and fonts across all my website and emails and social media posts. So, Cyn Sharp has colors, Huckleberry Hollow has colors and now my Website and email have colors! Specifically these! What do you thing? You like them?

Second: It's the four year anniversary of Fat Girls in Fiction this month! So if you use Instagram still, check out her website for giveaways and all the fun things. On March 26th, there will be a bunch of eBook freebies including Witching and Scheming! I'll email out a link day of, but maybe set yourself a reminder to ask me because my brain is garbage.

Third: I'm doing a Barnes and Noble signing! On July 26th I'll be signing books at the Boise, ID Barnes and Noble first as E. N. Crane and then as Noelle Rider, which brings us to some important announcements!

Cyn Sharp #9, Huckleberry Hollow #2 and a Special Edition Hardcover of Witching and Scheming will be released on July 26th with my Barnes and Noble Signing!

If you're wondering whether or not all that will be done, it will. If we're lucky, the debut collab between romance and thriller will be there as well, but that will be another email. Have faith in me. Now... for the real purpose of this newsletter.

Jumping Judiciary Corruption: Sharp Investigations #9

Death hits close to home and Cyn's family is growing.

A shocking death has Cyn taking custody of a friend's dog, forever. While serving jury duty on a high-profile federal corruption case, an old friend was found dead in his hotel room. Though ruled an accident, a series of events suggest it was anything but.

Except kicking the hornet's nest won't bring him back, and Cyn has a new baby to keep safe.

Unfortunately, the canine witnessed his human's murder and the killer's can't let a single witness walk free. With a target painted on all of them and 12 anonymous suspects, Cyn will tap into Sweet Pea's network of busy-body seniors to find out who had a secret worth killing over.

Hopefully before they finish the job.

Talk soon!

Noelle, Perry & Padfoot
