Hey ,

I’m so glad to see you here! For real.

Due to a pretty significant email glitch, I discovered a whole whack of my Cabin Crew peeps haven’t been receiving my messages since LAST JUNE. 😳

My sincere apologies if this describes you. Can we start over?

If I sound like a regretful lover trying to win back her man’s heart, in a way I am. You may not be my soulmate, but you are super important to me, and to show my appreciation, I’d like to give you a chance to win a signed copy of one of my twisty-turny time-travel thrillers (details below).

On the other hand, it's possible that so much time has passed that you’re saying, “Who the hell is MJ Mumford?” and you'd rather just dump me.

I get it. Go ahead and hit that Unsubscribe link at the bottom of this email and you'll never have to see my face again. But please know this: my cabin door is always open if you ever change your mind.

To the rest of my Cabin Crewsers that have been receiving my updates, thank you for hanging out with me! Your loyalty keeps me going. In fact, I invite you to enter the draw below, too. 😘

Have you ever wondered why it’s called MJ’s Cabin Crew? 

Bear with me if you’ve read the first two books in the TimeBlink series, because this will be painfully obvious to you.

You see, cabins feature heavily in this series.

Most of book one takes place at a stunning vacation property at Sandalwood Lake in the Pacific Northwest.

It is there that protagonist Syd Brixton must decide whether she wants to use her newfound power of timeblinking to discover the truth behind her sister’s disappearance twenty years earlier or whether she’d rather use it to save her soulmate’s life instead.

In book two, the adventure starts on a crashing plane (no need to point out the cabin connection there.).

It’s the year 2024 and Syd zaps herself off the doomed flight right into September 2019—once again to the picturesque cabin at the Lake. This time, however, she’s accidentally brought people with her, making the entire group’s return to the present even deadlier than if they’d stayed on ill-fated Flight 444.

And in the final instalment of this series (now in progress), the story picks up right where book two left off—you guessed it–at Sandalwood Lake.

However, the action moves quickly to the small nearby city of Port Raven, and this time, Syd’s mission is to find a missing family member whom she believes is being held hostage in 2014.

So, that’s the Cabin Crew backstory for you.

Oh, and since there isn’t much going on at the lake in book three, let me know if you can think of a fun cabin-related Easter egg to drop in there somewhere, and if I use it, I’ll be sure to mention you in the Acknowledgements!

As mentioned, I’d like to express my gratitude for your interest in my writing by offering you a chance to win one of my books.

Just reply I’d love to win a signed book! before April 30, 2023, and I’ll add you to the draw.

That’s it! If your name is pulled from the hat on May 1, I’ll be in touch.

The contest is open to everyone worldwide…unless you know me personally, in which case, I can sign your books any time.

Omigosh, there’s so much going on with this lil series this month! The most exciting thing is that TimeBlink was selected for an exclusive Kindle Deal in Australia!

This means Amazon is dropping the price of the ebook and giving it a blast of exposure there. Oh happy days!

So, if you’re lucky enough to live in that beautiful part of the world, and you haven’t read TimeBlink yet, you can grab the ebook for $1.49 AUD right now. 📘

YOU GUYS ARE KEEPING ME HONEST!

Can you believe it? I had another 3 a.m. epiphany that necessitated a minor rewrite of the first 13 chapters of DRAGONFLY, but I'm back on track now. 

Watch this spot in future emails to see the final book in The Syd Brixton TimeBlink series come to life.

Yesterday my social feed blew up with some great news. Kobo Plus has finally expanded to the US and UK markets! 🎉 Woo-hoo!

This means that you can choose the monthly Kobo subscription for $7.99 and get as many ebooks as you want, so even if you only read two full-price books a month, the cost of the service pays for itself.

By the way, I'm not an affiliate of this program. I just love that even more people around the world are now able to access books for minimal cost. 

Last month I touched on how AI "Woe-bots" have impacted my current job as a writer as well as my previous one as a medical transcriptionist.

As promised, the full story is now available on my website.

Thanks for spending time with me today, . I appreciate your interest in my stories.
