Sartorias-deles: Modern (Romantic Fantasies)

I guess these would be called romantasies now--though I don't know if that term will stick. Cozy romantic fantasies, definitely. ("Cozy", for me, being defined by a text that soon clues the reader that nothing horrible is going to happen by the end, though there might be some emotional turmoil and even danger.) These were all first written when I was a twenty-something.

I have hardcover copies of most of my books and trade paperback copies of all, which I am happy to sign and send for 25 bucks apiece (includes postage) hardcover, 15 for paperback, but only continental USA while postage costs are so insane. A real bargain for the ones I paid more than ten bucks to have printed! PayPal me @ sherwood@sherwoodsmith.net, with an address to send the signed book, and if you want it personalized, the name, and I'll do my best to get it in the mail within three to five days of receipt.
