  Dear Reader,

  Your reviews are more important than words can express. Reviews directly impact sales and book visibility, which means the more reviews I have, the more sales I see. The more books I sell, the more I can write and focus on producing books that you love to read. You see how that math works out? The best possible support you can provide is to give an honest review, even if it’s just clicking those stars to rate a book! (I won’t even complain if it’s 4 stars, honest.)

  Thank you for all of your support. See you in the next book!

  AJ’s mind is the sort that refuses to let her write one project at a time. Or even just one book a year. She normally writes fantasy under a different pen name, but her aforementioned mind couldn’t help but want to write in the LGBTQ+ genre. Fortunately, her editor is completely on board with this plan.

  In her spare time, AJ loves to devour books, eat way too much chocolate, and take regular trips. She's only been outside of the United States once, to Japan, and loved the experience so much that she firmly intends to see more of the world as soon as possible. Until then, she'll just research via Google Earth and write about the worlds in her own head.

  If you’d like to join her newsletter to be notified when books are released, and get behind-the-scenes information about upcoming books, you can join her NEWSLETTER here, or email her directly at sherwoodwrites@gmail.com and you’ll be added to the mailing list. You’ll also receive a free copy of her book Fourth Point of Contact! If you’d like to interact with AJ more directly, you can socialize with her on various sites and join her Facebook group: AJ’s Gentlemen!
