the hitwoman and the teddy bear

Sometimes I amaze myself

September 1, 2021 By JB Lynn Leave a Comment

When was the last time you amazed YOURSELF?

Last week, I needed to start a new journal so I grabbed a notebook. (I use single subject spiral notebooks…because I’m the epitome of fancy.) But once I opened it I realized it wasn’t new. It was the journal I’d started….four months TO THE DAY before. (And no, I don’t start on the first of the month, because I’m haphazard like that, lol.)

You must excuse the terrible handwriting that’s only meant for me to see, but here’s what I wrote:

(The teachers who tortured me as a child about my handwriting would be bitterly disappointed in the mess I churn out and yet I’m still considered to be a functioning adult…most days.)

FOUR MONTHS.

If you’d asked me at the beginning of last month, when I’d already been in my NC place for a week and a half, I would have told you that selling my place was taking forever and felt like a nearly impossible task (it took three contracts and three closing dates to actually complete a closing). It took four months from “it’s time to do this” to “done”.

Four months to arrange the sale that then fell apart on closing day, find a place to live in a state where I don’t really know anyone and a town where I didn’t know a soul, and to move, sight unseen (under threat of hurricane) HOPING my stuff would make it.

Four months.

When I realized that, I was amazed by myself. (Not that it’s some huge, amazing feat, lol….perhaps I’m just easily impressed.)

Oh, and I managed to write and publish a few of books during that time…and to think I often consider myself to be a slacker, lol.

What can you do to amaze YOURSELF???

New release and progress!

May 2, 2021 By JB Lynn 1 Comment

Can you believe that 2021 is already a third over?!?!

I don’t know about you, but my mental To Do list tends to carry a lot more weight than my Ta-Dah! list. It’s easy to forget about what I’ve accomplished when I’m busy worrying about all that is left to be done.

Yesterday, while I was doing my monthly wrap-up/planning session I realized I’ve done more than I’d really realized this year.

Friday I published The Hitwoman and the Teddy Bear, my second release of the year,

following The Hitwoman Owes a Favor

I’ve also written my June release, Something Old, Something New (the next in the Psychic Consignment Mysteries).

And I’ve been working on Cursed Chicks 4! (Not to mention the six part short story Cursed Chicks Club I provided for my newsletter subscribers.)

SIGN UP

I’ve got big plans for the rest of the year too. I’m a busy bee!

Less than a week until Teddy!

April 24, 2021 By JB Lynn 1 Comment

The Hitwoman and the Teddy Bear is almost here.

I can’t wait for you to read Maggie’s latest adventure.

Maggie Lee has done some really questionable things, but she’s never stooped so low as to steal a child’s toy. There’s a first time for everything.

Maggie’s life is always complicated, but her tenuous balancing act becomes even more dangerous when she’s given the job of stealing a teddy bear from the grandson of the mobster Delveccio.

As she struggles to keep the different facets of her life separate, her family faces multiple threats to their safety, and there’s a very real chance she won’t be able to protect everyone she loves.

Her best chance at success depends on the help of her pets…and you can bet they all have something to say about that.

Make sure to preorder your copy right away.

The next Hitwoman book
