Jerri Corgiat

Award-Winning Author and Editor

WHAT'S NEW...

May, 2013
All my lovely intentions to keep this site current seem to slip by the wayside, not out of disinterest but because of a very full plate, as most of you can understand, too!

My have-to-eat job involves copyediting and editing projects, but I also reserve much of my time to write. I just finished a historical opus (a "gothic-type," family-secrets thing, for lack of a specific genre name). My agent is peddling this to the Big NY Editors, even as I continue to work on some revisions. (Stay tuned...)

As for the LOVE FINDS A HOME series, which stalled when my publisher dropped it after five books, I'm about halfway through the rewrite of a first draft of the sixth, as yet untitled, which I hope to see e-published within the year.

Daisy will make a return in Book Six, and I'll introduce a new family of characters I hope to follow through another series.

The original five HOME books are available as ebooks (click on any cover), published by Istoria Books.

They will also be available again in print, beginning this summer, one book at a time!

That's my life right now... Friend me on FB--I'd love to know a little about yours!

Namaste!
