Yes, I'm seriously considering this (and possibly going add more to the story line--like the wedding, etc.). The main reason that I cut up The Governess into three volumes was to get the story published quicker--by the end of summer 2013. (Goal accomplished!) I seriously needed to make some money fast to pay for my daughter's college tuition for this fall or she would not be able to attend, period. (Another goal accomplished! Woohoo!--and a real, live miracle to boot! But that's another story...). And that money was needed for the thousand other things out there, especially medical bills.
But now, after my husband's quadruple bypass (and he's doing remarkably well, I'm quite happy to say!!! Yet one more miracle in this family's history of miracles...), we need the income more than ever. So, now that the book is all out there, piece by finished piece, I'm considering making it into one volume. I hadn't thought I'd do this until Pirate Bride was released, but many people have asked the question 'Why was the book published in volumes in the first place?' just one too many times. It annoys me. There were very good reasons why I did things the way I did them.
So, with that said, I'm letting everyone know my goals. I really don't know how quickly I can accomplish this goal since I'm right in the middle of helping my healing husband, homeschooling my son, helping my high school daughter, and my new college student with their lives, homework, etc., and haven't had any time at all to work on my writing since Volume Three was published at the end of July. Whew! I'm tired!! Anyone seen the bags under my eyes lately? I'm just glad all is going well.
Thank you for your amazing support, everyone!
