With all the information available on the internet, some might wonder about the future of book publishing, whether online or hard copies.  I believe that both nonfiction and fiction will continue to be a source of knowledge and entertainment for the foreseeable future and that some of the steps taken by the publishing industry will lead to stronger business models resulting in continuous future releases.

Charles and Caroline Todd plan to attend several book festivals and to also appear at some book signings in Florida, Arizona and Utah during late winter/early spring. The Todds, a son and mother writing team, write both the popular and increasingly addictive Bess Crawford series and the Ian Rutledge series, both focusing on detectives whose demons from World War I continue to haunt them, albeit one more literally than the other.

Readers look forward to the winter holidays as a time to catch up on favorite authors, tempting titles or addictive genre or series releases as a perfect way to take a breath during the holiday season.
