I’ve finally managed to get Two Feathers published after some drama with Amazon’s AWS collapse last week. It’s also taken some time to get the advanced copies out to everyone, but the problems are all resolved now, so there shouldn’t be any more delays.

I hope you enjoy this book, although it’s a long read at around 500 pages. Book 8 is already in draft form and I hope to get that out to you early next year. That’s the last book in the series, however I’ll be publishing a collection of short stories before Christmas. That’s actually Book 9, but it’s almost ready to go so you may as well have it.

Thanks to everyone who have already downloaded Two Feathers and a big thank you for your patience and support over the past eighteen months. Couldn’t do this without you.

For those of you looking for the Amazon link here it is https://www.amazon.com/Two-Feathers-Madeleine-Sadie-Conall-ebook/dp/B0FTFHTD7Y otherwise you can check out the free excerpt on my Free Stuff page here on this website.

Two Feathers, the 7th book in the Madeleine series is now live for PRE-ORDER. The publishing date is 24th October 2025, so not long to go now.

You can find it here https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FTFHTD7Y or go to my “free stuff” page and click on the link there.

Can’t wait to get this book out to you. I’ll have the 9th book in the series out before Christmas which is the Collection of Short Stories, then I’ll have the 8th and final book in the series out as soon as I can in 2026. Its already in draft form so won’t take as long as this one.

Just when you think you’re on top of things, you realize you’re not when things go wrong. I was hoping to publish Two Feathers in May but four things happened to cause delays.

First, the company who holds all my covers upgraded to a new system and now I can’t access any of my covers (eleven of them, including covers for the last three books in the Madeleine series). They’re working hard for me on retrieving all those covers, with Two Feathers being the most urgent as I need that cover to publish book 7.

Then I had a brief hospital stay to check on a few things that turned out okay.

Then my cat was in an accident with another cat and snapped his lower jaw in half which required two nights in the vet hospital, a great deal of money to fix him, pain relief for two weeks and two more vet visits to check him out. He’ll have his jaw wired shut for the next two months, he can eat okay as his upper jaw is fine, but just under his chin and along that lower jaw is all wires.

The last thing was three tradesmen coming here over two weeks for various things that went wrong. I tried to work while they were here but there’s always questions that need answering amid lots of noise.

I tried getting up before dawn to work on the book and again late at night, but I’m still behind. This book has been the hardest out of all my books to get published for various reasons, but it’ll get there.

Hi there, just a quick post to let you know my new admin person inadvertently deleted some of my subscribers from Mailchimp, several thousand in fact, and we won’t be able to retrieve a lot of you. If you miss my newsletter this month, just send me an email at sadieconallauthor@gmail.com and we’ll add you back in. Apologies for this, just one of those things that happens when the gremlins are out and about. My next newsletter will be going out in a few days with some freebies, so hope you get it okay.
