A Bit More About My New Book

I was running through the routine of checking places where my book CRICKET'S MOON is listed and noticed something you might be interested in. If you buy it soon, you save some money! Go to http://www.awe-struck.net/authors/jane_bierce.html and you can get the deal. Well, cheap as I am, fifty cents looks good!

I really am proud of this book, more than several of the others that I have written. Some were edited in ways I didn't like, and covers didn't come out the way I envisioned them, but CRICKET'S MOON was barely changed in the editing at all, and one place where the editor suggested a change worked out much better. The cover has to be the prettiest cover I've ever had.

Since this is the first book of a three-book series, I'm hoping my characters show through brilliant;y both in this book and the others. CASSIE'S FLAME has already been submitted, and CLEOME'S GARDEN is about to jump out of my head into my computer.

I just hope that my readers are willing to give me a break as I write not only in my heroine Cricket's point of view, but go into those of Cassie and Cleome -- young black women -- and their surrounding characters to show the effects of poverty and wealth in a community.

As always, my Christian values show through. I can't help it -- I can't write dirty books!
