Since 2019, I completed:
THREE Cassia Plymouth Books
It's Not About the Turtle (Work Stories)
Lockdown Stories
Two Letrius Books

Next :
Olivia Plymouth Companion
A return to the Amazi Series

An interesting challenge taking on a topic or perspective that I haven't done before. This is more true of short stories because they start with a blank page. But I had the same experience with Ghosts vs. Robots!, Saving Eddie, Missed Landing, Spiritual Storms, and Killing Thoreau.

For the three series, the boundaries are more set so it is more a question of where can I take my characters that will challenge them. As they grow and experience various aspects of life, hopefully so does the reader.

A chance to make the world a better place through my thoughts, words, and actions. That's better than any video game!

Olivia Plymouth is the oldest series and most popular. It was always meant to be a four book arc. The challenge is after writing something is evaluating would Olivia really do that. The Boston Wedding took forever to release because there were far too many side plots and historical descriptions. It has a lot of humor, fashion, a mystery/adventure, and traveling. But in the end it is always about relationships and a sense of home. The last two books are quite different and focus more on Olivia's growth as a person. The ideas sat on the digital shelf for ten years!! A Fifth book was written as a sequel

Cassia Plymouth is about Olivia's daughter. It is a more dangerous world and has a different set of rules. And Olivia does appear. I hope the original Olivia readers will enjoy this series.

Amazi Series is the first one that I released. It takes some effort to be historically accurate and provide an alternative history on what could be invented at the time. The turn of the century was a time of growth and opportunity for the United States. I tried to capture some of the excitement and wonder of that time.

Corporate Intent Series popped out of nowhere and now has four books and a story. To me it is a Business Dysfunctional Corporate Mystery Sci-Fi Thriller with a nod to female readers! The area of Business and IT fiction that I like to see evolve. For Corporate Intent, there are no rules in the universe. Anything can happen. In each book, the DCRI staff are pushed far beyond their limits. The Finale , Book #4 Missing Syndicate lives up to the potential of the series. It is the first series that I have completed.

The Non-Series books allows taking on other topics such as IT, business, science, spirituality, sociological and historical fiction.

I am fortunate to have a great illustrator in my daughter Alessandra. I discuss my vision and then she comes up something that is amazing. It is a lot of fun for both of us. She is available for hire for interested authors.

Three books in a new series
An Olivia Plymouth Companion
One Amazi Book
But you never know!

To stay fresh, challenge myself and have fun. I would like to see more IT, sociological and Business fiction out there.

There is unique historical paranormal fiction about a famous American figure -- Edgar Allan Poe. I wanted to tell his life through the eyes of his real-life brother (of which little is known) and a female admirer that follows him mostly from afar. There is a paranormal aspect on why Poe has the outlook that he does and a different explanation on what happened. It is now available for reading.

This was partially done with Simply Business/IT. Plus new stories were added. I recently added a second edition.

The ability to start with a blank digital page and create a world or situation that I never could originally envision.

Sad that it was ending. But great to having helped the characters grow throughout the series.

http://hallettgermanfiction.com has the latest details. Also facebook groups for Olivia/Cassia Plymouth

To give this interesting woman her due!!! An overlooked founding mother.
She greatly contributed to Ben's fortune by running his print shop and the colonial post office. Debby also ran her household and raised two children to adulthood.
She oversaw her house being built . (And later defended it from a mob.) And she knew her own mind and how to express her thoughts.

Two English and Portuguese. The Olivia Plymouth story is in the latter as a tribute to my second favorite language. It is not a mere translation but with specific changes. No others are planned.

I like writing experimental books. They may not easy for readers to take all in at once , Some things may be better suited a hundred year from now
