April 2012
Dear Readers,
 It's Spring which means flowers and tornado outbreaks in Oklahoma. Still, I enjoy these perfect temperatures, if only for a few weeks!
I'm excited about 2012! I have my very first short story releasing in May, Escapement. It's part of a larger collection of short stories called 7 HOURS. I, along with 6 other suspense authors, have taken one premise and each of us has written a story stemming from that premise. The result? A fun, entertaining and suspenseful collection of short stories you won't want to put down! I'm excited to introduce you to my extraordinary co-authors: Mike Dellosso, James Andrew Wilson, Ronie Kendig, Robin Parrish, Tom Pawlik and Travis Thrasher. I'm also extremely excited to introduce you to my character, Mattie Bigham. I don't think you'll ever forget him. I know I won't. Don't miss this opportunity to read this groundbreaking collection of short stories!
I've also been busy hanging around movie sets. I know, I've gone all Hollywood, haven't I? Well, not really, but it was awfully fun visiting the set of HEART OF THE COUNTRY, for which I partnered with director John Ward to bring you the novel of the same name. John and I worked on this book last year, and now he's making the movie! The print book and movie will be out next year, but in the meantime, if you just can't wait to find out what this story is all about, it's available in e-book! Visit http://heartofthecountrythemovie.com for updates, as well as our Facebook page. And of course, you can always keep up with me on my Facebook page as well. I've posted pics from my visit to the set in Wilmington, North Carolina, which was extra fun because we got to escort the winners of the STAR FOR A DAY contest! I truly enjoyed being a part of this amazing project and can't wait for you to sink your hearts into these characters' lives as well.
Meanwhile, I'm also working to bring you another Rene Gutteridge/Cheryl McKay novel! GREETINGS FROM THE FLIPSIDE is our next romantic comedy, due out next year! It's always such a fun process working with Cheryl, one of the most creative minds in the business.
I have many more updates, contests and giveaways on my Facebook page and my newsletter! Thanks for reading my books and being a part of my community. I cherish all my readers!
Warmly,
Rene
