November already? Wow! What happened to October? One of my favourite months has just flown by in the blink of an eye. Then again, each day is quite similar to the next with ten hours in the writing chair each day. But I don’t mind. I’m doing what I love, crafting stories for you to enjoy where the everyday suddenly becomes something much more, and that make’s it all worthwhile.
And although I cannot divulge any further details at the moment, let me just add that the motion picture of CLAW: A Canadian Thriller, which I hinted at last month, is continuing its development and I hope to have even more news to tell you next month, so stay tuned!
Speaking of CLAW, for those of your looking forward to the prequel, CLAW Emergence: From the Shadows, keep looking forward; it’s coming soon! Book 1 is scheduled for a Christmas release this year and I will be putting it up for preorder at the beginning of December. In the meantime, as a special treat to keep you going, I have a sneak-peek. This chapter preview serves as an introduction to one of the ‘not-so-good-guys’ that Caleb Cantrill and Kitty Welch ultimately encounter during their adventures in the wild West Kootenays of British Columbia. Please bear in mind, the cover for this preview is only placeholder art for now and the actual cover is one I think you’re all going to really enjoy, which I will reveal next month. You can grab the preview here: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/v6bp08065k
Now for the winners of this month’s draws! For an audiobook, the winner is: skarasch@XXXXXX.gov. And the winner of the autographed paperback is: nathan_singer@XXXXXX.com. Please go to here for the complete list of winners: https://katieberry.ca/audiobook-winners/
Also, I will mention this once again, please make sure katie@katieberry.ca is on your ‘allow’ list of trusted email addresses to make sure you get notified if you are a winner. Otherwise, your notification might just go straight to your spam or trash folder, and we wouldn’t want that, would we?
That’s about it for now. I should get back to Lawless, BC. I heard rumour a brawl just broke out at the Golden Nugget Saloon, so I better get there right away and make notes of what happens for your enjoyment. Also, before I go, a quick wish for all of my American friends to have a lovely Thanksgiving at the end of this month. For those of you wondering, the cartoon I created is suposed to be of a gold mining turkey, though how he’s going to pan for gold with those wings is anyone’s guess.
Good health and great reads to you all!
