Just take a look at Staci Troilo’s upcoming sci-fi series starter! Wow! What a cover and blurb! I’ve already pre-ordered mine, and I’m sure many of you will want to do the same. Congratulations, Staci (or should I say D.L.? š Best of luck with this one. ā¤
Ciao, amici! Lifeās been busy, and it just got CRAZY. My publisher moved the release date of my new book from October to May 7. May 7! Thatās less than a month away! Iāve got so much pre-release work to do. Starting with a cover release. Soā¦ ta-da!
Itās it stunning? Iām so excited about it.
Let me back up a step. First, youāll notice it does NOT say āStaci Troiloā on the cover. Weāve talked about this before, here and there or in passing. Iām writing under a pen name (D. L. Cross) for this series. We can talk more about that later, though.
Second, youāll note an alien ship on the cover. Aliens, as in sci-fi. Itās not a genre people associate with the name Staci Troilo, which is one of the reasons Iām writing under a pen name. If youāre interested in science fiction and aliens, thisā¦

Good! Everyone needs to be a little giddy now and then! And when you can make a sincere, from the heart statement that makes someone feel that way, then it makes YOU a bit giddy, too. Remember summer evenings as a kid, spinning in a circle with your arms outstretched? Yeah, that kind of giddy! It’s good for ya! š ā¤

From D.L. to D.G., thank you! My manuscript was done long ago; that’s why they were able to move me up in the calendar. It’s getting the rest of the series done, and all the marketing, that has me scrambling. But it’s a fun project, and I know I’ll get it done. š

Sometimes I’m brought to a standstill just thinking about all you do, Staci! It’s utterly amazing, though I feel like a real slacker in comparison. Still, you give me something to aspire to, and aspirations are usually good things to have! š ā¤

You’re no slacker. I can’t even remember the last talk I gave, and you do that all the time. It’s just a matter of us doing different things.
But if something I’m doing is spurring you on, I’m honored.

Thanks! I do seem to have overbooked a bit this year, something I’ll be more careful about next year. But I love talking directly to readers, no matter the subject. Just like you, I wish there were more hours in the day! So much I want to do, and only a finite amount of time to get it all done! A common lament, I’m sure.
And yes, you definitely spur me on, so I’m grateful! Thanks!! š ā¤
