Sarah Johnson is back at More Agreeably Engaged and she has some good news to share with us! (and a giveaway, too) She's writing too, so that is very good news! To get back to her present projects, I'll turn the floor over to Ms. Johnson. Take it away, Sarah. :)
Thank you so much, Janet, for having me back at More Agreeably Engaged! I have been busy writing in my spare time, and I hope to have another book out soon. For now though I have a few other projects to talk about.
The first project is one I hope everyone will enjoy for years to come. One past-time I enjoy is coloring, and especially with my kids. So one night when I was searching the internet for coloring books with
quotes, and my oldest daughter asked me why I didn't create one with Jane Austen quotes. After thinking about that for a while, I decided I should. So I chose my favorite Jane Austen quotes and went to my large stash of 18th and 19th Century artwork to make the frames. It was such a fun project to create, and I would love to share that with you. Janet will give details below about the giveaway. "Coloring with Jane: A Mind Lively and at Ease" is available in regular coloring book format through Amazon, and available in downloadable and printable PDF format through Etsy.The second project I am so very happy to announce is my second project with Sophie Andrews. She has lent her beautiful voice to my narrate my latest audiobook, Whispered Kisses. I have a few freebies of this to give away as well, and Janet will give details below. If you have not yet read Whispered Kisses, here is what it is about:Elizabeth Bennet is a romantic at heart—a dreamer and a writer. While in London, she begins receiving flowers anonymously. Her romantic sensibilities are heightened, leading her mind to create an image of who the giver could be. She soon returns to her home in Hertfordshire with only her memories and thoughts as her constant companions. Months go by without anything, and then, with the news of a visitor to the neighborhood, she once again receives a posy of flowers just before the neighborhood Assembly. Will her romantic dreams of the gentleman’s character tell a true tale or just leave her heart reeling for a love only possible in her fantasies?
Whispered Kisses, as well as all of my books, can be read for free if you are in the Kindle Unlimited program. It is available for purchase in print, eBook, and now audiobook through Amazon, and also available in audiobook through Audible.I have to give a great big Thank You! to Janet for letting me come here today to tell y'all about these two projects. Now I will turn it back to Janet, who can give the details about these two giveaways!
I have always loved to color and spent lots of time coloring with my son when he was small. Now I have had the fun of coloring with my grandchildren. This will be new inspiration for me to enjoy two of my favorite pastimes, coloring and Jane Austen! Thank you, Sarah Johnson.
Your second good news is very exciting. I loved your first audiobook, Snow Storms and Kissing Games. Sophie Andrews's narration was awesome. I felt she captured Jane and Lizzy perfectly. I'll be listening to this one soon! :) Thank you for sharing all your good news, Sarah.

ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of you for branching out, Sarah. I, too, already have your coloring book. Two thumbs up for you. I do not yet have Whispered Kisses in audio, though I have it in print and eBook. Sophie does a wonderful job producing audios. Again, well done!

Sarah is a new author for me, so that's exciting and the coloring book does look like fun!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been able to indulge in any of the coloring craze yet, but that is so neat that Sarah put together a Jane Austen coloring book.
ReplyDeleteAnd this reminds me, I didn't listen to the earlier book and wanted to do so. This one sounds romantic and sweet with the gifts of flowers.
Thanks for sharing the latest projects and for the giveaway opportunity, Sarah!
Whispered Kisses sounds sooooo romantic! Elizabeth receiving flowers,wondering who her secret admirer is...delightful yo be kept in such suspense!!!
ReplyDeleteAs for the colouring book,I loved colouring as a child,and the thought that this book has Austen quotes to ponder on while whiling away the hours colouring....great idea!!☺️
My 2 favorite hobbies...erm...obsessions are reading JAFF & coloring. Thanks for the oportunity!
ReplyDeleteWould love to listen to the audiobook, it sounds lovely ( so I imagine ;D )
ReplyDeleteSarah, I actually bought the coloring book for my niece who was in the hospital for three months (two in intensive care). She was an art major in college and has been coloring during her rehab. I'm sure she will love the book. Best Wishes with your new projects. Jen Red
