Seanachaí’s News


Starting this Sunday and every last Sunday of each month, I will be compiling “Seanachaí’s News," a status report that will assess my work during the current month and also formulate my plans for the upcoming month. It will also give you a peek at my works in progress.


My Work During the Current Month

    1. I’ve been busy promoting my new book, Dead Bird in the Weeds. In my July 5 blog I delved into this work of historical fiction to give the reader a deeper understanding of the characters involved during the Irish fight for freedom in 1798. For more information on this title, check out the July 5 blog and Sunflower Footsteps.
    2. On July 12 guest author E. Michaels blogged with us. Michaels discussed The Mysterious House, the first title in the Fox Mystery Series for children. For more information on this title, check out the July 12 blog and Sunflower Footsteps.
    3. Haunted Voices from My Past: True Narratives of an Ohio Family: If you follow me on Twitter, you know I have been working steadily on this new project. I am nearly finished with Part III. For more information on this title, visit Sunflower Footsteps' forthcoming titles.    
My Plans for the Upcoming Month

    1. I’ve been steadily gathering research for my new book, Haunted Voices from My Past: True Narratives of an Ohio Family. I have one more family member to interview for Part IV, and then I will be focusing exclusively on writing instead of trying to juggle both meetings and writing at the same time.
    2. If all goes as planned, Haunted Voices... will be finished as a first draft by the end of August.
    3. Also, a word about my colleague: Michaels is hard at work on Turtles and Shells and Things. For more information on this title, visit Sunflower Footsteps' forthcoming titles.


We have covered a lot of ground this past month, and we have a lot of interesting things planned for the fall. I hope you’ll be along for the ride.

As always, I love to hear from you. If you’re in the cyber-neighbourhood, drop me a line.  In the meantime, keep writing, reading, and smiling. It’s contagious.
