I Went to the Winter Olympics!

I confess it’s been a slow month because I spent two weeks in Italy attending the Winter Olympics.

On the writing front, WILD MOUNTAIN IVY was reviewed on the Grog Blog: https://groggorg.blogspot.com/2026/01/shannon-hitchcock-writes-sequel-13.html?m=1&fbclid=IwY2xjawQFo75leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEeaydUFxWTdCwkdmb0nJdRCGTQcfqg7OsOo4FNrrJdAvoVECSuWr4eJG1rMKM_aem_J4dOuwQ46HcdEaJ3WhlwMA

I’ve also been pleased that Kentucky librarians have been showing a lot of love to DANCING IN THE STORM, along with the other books that are nominated for The Bluegrass Award. Here’s one of their sample graphics, (copied from Instagram).

My immediate goal is to spend the rest of February and all of March on the release of WILD MOUNTAIN IVY, though I’m itching to start a new novel!
