âPlease welcome Anne Jolin to The Musings of Many!
How long does it take you to write a book? I have written a book in two weeks and I have written a book in six months. It really depends on the story and how well the characters seem to be cooperating. Do you write full-time or part-time? I am very blessed to write full-time and I love every second of it. Do you aim for a set amount of words/pages per day? When I am under deadline, I try to set an achievable word count goal for each day. It helps keep me accountable. Do you work to an outline or plot or do you prefer just see where an idea takes you? I never used to plot. The first three books I wrote had no plotting whatsoever but now I find that if I lay out the story ahead of time, I do a better job of not getting sidetracked. Any tips on how to get through the dreaded writerâs block? READ. READ. READ. Nothing cures my writers block faster than a great book. Character Interview â Kennedy Cross Select at least 5 questions below: How old are you? Twenty-six. What is the one word you would use to define her? Quirky-cute (Is it one word if I hyphen? Haha) What are their hobbies? Watching old romantic movies (especially ones with Kurt Russell wearing blue jeans) and baking. Are they a dog or a cat person? Cat person. Do they want a job that helps people or a job that makes money? Helps people. She is a first grade teacher.

THE ROCK FALLS SERIES IS BACK!!
The 5th installment, SAVING STEELE, is now available for purchase!
SAVING STEELE by Anne Jolin
Rock Falls Series #5
Genre: Contemporary Romance
- SYNOPSIS -
Kennedy Cross had her heart broken early in life. It wasn't someone or something who betrayed herâit was her own body. Despite it being all sheâs ever wanted, Kennedy will never know what it feels like to feel her babyâs feet kick from the inside out. Having been pronounced infertile at only eighteen, she redirected her life the best way she could.
Eight years and a degree later, Kennedy is one of the most well-loved first-grade teachers at Rock Falls Elementary School. It doesnât matter that her college boyfriend left her because he wanted children of his own. She has twenty-two of the most gorgeous six-year-olds who adore her and she wouldnât have it any other way.
Jackson Steele deals only in extremes. He falls victim to manic episodes lasting for days, sometimes weeks at a time, sending him reeling from volatile highs to devastating lows. Itâs a living hell just being inside his own mind, and that hell has taken everything heâs ever loved away from him. But what if, this time, it gives him something? An untimely gift from God and a brunette with legs eight miles long will bring him the most unforeseen joy but also his most challenging of tests.
What happens when circumstances of life threaten the one thing both Jackson and Kennedy love? Saving Steele from himself may prove to be too much for Cross to bear.

- EXCERPT -
Iâd totally become a yes girl where hot guy, dad to mini hot guy, Jackson Steele was concerned.
So that brings me to now, turning off my ignition and willing my body to move from the safety of my driverâs seat and up to his front door.
Itâs okay though. Iâve come prepared. Iâd written a list of things not to do when I arrived at the house on a yellow Post-it note.
1. Donât hyperventilate
2. Donât sweat
3. Donât touch him
4. Donât say the word âpenisâ or any of its synonyms or any parts of the male anatomy in general
5. Donât drool
Putting force behind the fist Iâd raised to knock on the door I immediately begin to fall forward as the offending panel of wood swings inward and I face plant directly into a hard male chest.
Rats! There goes rule number three and quickly too.
Mmm. But he sure smells nice.
âEasy, babe,â his voice is a deep manly chuckle, large hands settling on my waist.
I feel that âbabe,â that chuckle and that contact in all the right places, even a tingle or two in some wrong ones if Iâm being honest.
Considering Iâm relatively close to the brink of insanity this morning, it isnât all that surprising that in that second, instead of pulling away, I take the opportunity to tilt my head back and look at him, really look at him, for the second time since weâd met.
Big mistake.
Should have added a sixth rule. Donât look at him either.

- ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Anne Jolin -
Hey yâall,
I was born and raised in Ladner, a small farm town just outside Vancouver, Canada. I grew up riding horses, shooting guns, and driving in trucks.
I never expected to be an author. A massage therapist? Yes. Take over the family construction company? Yes. But an author? No. Writing was something that snuck up on me and rooted itself into my life. It was beautiful to discover that love, and Iâm truly grateful to say Iâve found my passion.
Since Iâve always been a creative person, it feels amazing to harness all of that energy and use it to tell a story I love. I enjoy incorporating bits of my real life into the stories I write. What parts are true? Hah. Iâll never tellâwhat would be the fun in that?
If I could leave yâall with one thing, itâs that lifeâs far too short to not live it out loud. Drown in your passions, hold on tight to the things that inspire you, and chase your dreams relentlessly. I can promise you without a doubt that you wonât regret it. I know I donât.
Mad love,
Anne Jolin
