We have a delicious announcement!

Drifting by Sarah Armstrong-Garner is now on our publishing schedule.

Hurray!

For those of you who have eagerly anticipated the next book in the Sinking trilogy, we are pleased to announce a tentative 2018 release date.

And now, an interview with the author herself.

  1. What are you most excited about Drifting’s release?

I am most excited about everyone getting to read how Jocelyn and Aidan are adapting to their ever-changing lives and finding out who they really are.

  1. What was the most difficult part about writing Drifting?

The most difficult part was allowing the story to change. When I sat down to write Drifting, I had an idea of how the story would end, but the characters and situations changed. Once I got out of their way, the story began to bleed onto the page.

  1. Can you give us a hint of what to expect in book two?

We all have a dark side.

  1. In Sinking, Jocelyn’s medallion was more significant than she could fathom. Are there any trinkets, devices, or jewelry we should look for in Drifting?

The medallion is still a huge part of Jocelyn’s story and everyone else’s. It still holds the key to everything.

  1. Are Jocelyn’s memories still missing in Drifting? Or does she remember everything about her life under the sea?

She remembers almost everything in Drifting, but parts of her past are still kept from her, and the only way for her to find them is to awaken a monster.

Thank you, Sarah, for joining us today. We cannot wait to release your next book!

And we cannot wait to share it with our fabulous readers.

Happy Reading!

Today we are featuring Author Sarah Armstrong-Garner. We are so glad you’ve joined us to learn more about Sarah and her novel, Sinking. Let’s get started!

Welcome to the blog today, Sarah! What has been your favorite part of your journey with Sinking?

The first would be holding the finished book in my hands. It was amazing to be able to say, “That’s my book!” Then there was seeing Sinking in The Avid Reader’s bookstore window; that took my breath away.

What about your launch party for Sinking? How was that?

It was a lot of fun. We had the party at De Vere’s Irish Pub with a mermaid entertainer. We figured since Jocelyn began her journey in Ireland, it was only right to start ours as close to Ireland as we could get.

And how wonderful to have a mermaid! Do you plan to have mermaids at other events?

Yes, there will be a mermaid at a few of the other book signings.

Oh my goodness, that sounds like so much fun! How do you balance family life and writing?

It’s one of those things I have to make time for. Late nights, when everyone else is asleep, is my work time—or when my wonderful husband, friends, or family take the kids for a few hours. I don’t have a set schedule, but I’m not a person who does well with scheduling and organization. Just look at my desk.

Do you see yourself writing anything other than the Sinking trilogy? Or are those the only books you plan to write?

No, I have billion book ideas I hope to make into books. My only worry is running out of my lifetime before ideas.

Speaking of other books, have you started writing Drifting?

Drifting is a work in progress. I know I’m going to have a few sleepless nights, but my goal is to have it published this year.

Exciting news! I must know: Who is your favorite character in Sinking?

Anna. I love how in tune she is with her environment, and how well she knows herself.

Most stories have a message, even if it’s only a hint. Does Sinking have a message?

Anna puts it best. “I do not care what color your eyes are, my dear. Do not ever be ashamed of who you are.”

Thank you so much for joining us today, Sarah. We have enjoyed getting to know you better!

Sarah Armstrong-Garner will be at The Avid Reader Bookstore in Davis, California this Sunday from 2-3pm. She will read a selection from her latest release, answer any questions you may have, and sign your very own copy of Sinking.

Details are as follows: The Avid Reader Independent Bookstore, 617 2nd St., Davis, CA, March 13, 2016 from 2-3pm. (Need directions? No problem! Follow this link.)

And who knows? Will there be mermaid at this event? Or perhaps another? There’s only one way to find out! (Besides bribing Sarah with a speaking engagement or her favorite beverage, of course.)

We hope to see you there!
