One of my big projects this summer has been to finish writing my next book.  I decided one book wasn't enough, so I am actually working on two new books. 

The first book picks up where "The Mud Hole" leaves off and takes Henry and Robert into winter with the Model T.  Some new adventures, but winter style. I'm still working on a title, but the first writing is complete and I am now in the editing and tweaking stages before sending it to other people for editing.

The second book I am working on is different.  It still deals with boys and cars, but it  is loosely based on my growing up and adventures I had with an old red car that was parked in the pasture behind the house.  It will be titled "The Old Red Car".  Each chapter will be a mini story by itself and will not have a plot line that continues from chapter to chapter.  I am choosing this style due to the fact that many reluctant readers have a hard time following a story from beginning to end.  By making each chapter a short story the reader will not have to remember what happened in the previous chapter in order for the story to make sense.  The first draft of this is completed and I am also  editing/tweaking it before it I have my editors take a look at it.

I have a goal to have these published within the next year.  I am not sharing my timeline at this time as setbacks do occur and I don't want to promise something by a certain date and fail to deliver.   I will keep things posted as progress is made and when things get close I will update the website with the new information.
