Forster Sentinel - Winter 2011

Gwynne Forster's Newsletter

I’ve never seen so much snow in my life. New York’s deep mid-winter weather has been conducive to staying inside and writing. So, generally speaking, that’s what I’ve done. I finished, A Compromising Affair, the fifth Harrington story and sent it off to my editor. It’s due out in September of this Year. It about Judson Philips-Sparkman’s ( See Love Me Tonight) best friend, Scott Galloway, as he leaves his first ambassadorial assignment after two necessarily celibate years in Lithuania. Scott is a tough guy, knows who he wants and gets her.

In October, Kensington Publishing Corp published When The Sun Goes Down, my tenth novel of general fiction. The story was a challenge, because it contained one dark character (along with some admirable ones), a mystery and a love story. It is also a sequel to my bestselling, If You Walked In My Shoes. I was able to breathe deeply after reading the Publisher’s Weekly review. It promises to be a page turner.

My husband, our son and I enjoyed a splendid vacation in Europe during the latter part of September, There’s not much equal to sitting along the banks of the Danube River in perfect Autum weather watching the boats glide over the wave-free water.  

At the end of December, I sent my editor my eleventh novel of general fiction. We haven’t yet settled on a title for it. It’s the story of a woman who, against seemingly insurmountable odds, is determined to follow her dream and achieve her goal. The greatest deterrent is the person closest to her.
