I’ve had several readers ask about Book 5, Safety Assured Leaving East of Medicetti and I’m pleased to report that yes–it’s coming along well. I can’t devote as many hours to it as I wished each day, because I have five kids at home–half of whom I homeschool (work out that math)–and a side business I run on Etsy, so I have to try to strike a balance. If I could just learn to not sleep, progress would be much faster.
But because I’m so excited about this book, I’ve decided to give you a teaser each week in the form of a line or two from the story. Here’s the first, which I’ve learned from personal experience:
(At least half my trials come to me this way. I’m slowly catching on to keep my mouth shut.)

I had no idea what book one was about, I found it on my Amazon account and chose to read it. I really liked, so I got book 2, I liked it even more, as I was reading I kept thinking this is LDS truths, she must be an LDS author. By the end of book 3 I loved the books, and read book 4, and I was like she left me hanging, and no book 5. Today I called my daughter in Idaho and told her she should read these books, as I was looking online in Amazon and reading stuff to her, she asked who the author was, as she is familiar with a lot of LDS authors, but she had never heard of Trish Mercer, so I clicked on the name and found out more and the best part is information about book 5, so happy. I love the stories, and the people, and the concept of staying with and believing in our religion and not following the rapid changes of the world. I told her she should have my granddaughter aslo read them, she loves to read, she is 15. I am also going to have my two granddaughters in Reno look at the books, and hope they will read them too. Their is also a grandson who lives in Reno as well. My daughter their mother died 10 years ago from cancer, and their fathers parents have guardianship over them it has been a trial for 10 long years.
Anyway thank you for such great books.

What wonderful words! Thank you so much! Comments like this make my whole week. I’m glad you found me. Unfortunately I’m pretty bad at promoting my books, so not a lot of people know about me.
Thank you for getting the word out to your family. If you subscribe to this website, you’ll get updates as to when Book 5 is coming out. I’ve got a draft out to beta readers right now, and I’m working on the cover and map, so hopefully by May it’ll be ready to go.
Have a wonderful day, and thank you again for writing!
