Every book has a story of its own.
My latest novel, Evergreen Falls, has been released this week in Australia (with forthcoming editions in the United States and other places…). I started writing this book over a year ago, when I made a mid-winter visit to the Blue Mountains for research and planning. Most of the book was then written at the lovely place in this photograph, a beautiful nineteenth century guesthouse at Wentworth Falls, over the summer of 2013/2014. Every day, I would get up and go for a run, then come back for breakfast, then write all day, then spend the afternoon hiking around the Falls, trying to nut out plot problems in my head.
Every book has its journey, too, with publication as its final destination. So when the whole world says hello to Evergreen Falls, I say goodbye to it. With that goodbye, I often feel quite nostalgic for the months when I was researching and writing it. Today, with the change of the season up here in Brisbane, I’ve found myself longing to be back in the cool of the Blue Mountains, visiting again with my imaginary friends Flora and Sam and Violet and Lauren.
There’s a little video about the book here:

Ohhhh, do I have to wait for, “a Evergreen Falls,” to come out in the US, again? How so I get it now? I love Kimberly Freeman’s books! Please tell me how to get it now.
Ha! I had no idea you know her work Mary Anne 🙂 I was artist adviser on one of them and all. Xx
A wonderful new Kimberley Freeman novel. Happy to read it as quick as I could, now sad that it’s over!
Please hurry and write another, Kimberley. Is there some truth to this story?
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You make reading a terrific treat. Mary Ann Mahoney
Your Grandmother sounds like a wonderful lady, I can’t wait to read the story too!

Just finished reading Evergreen Falls and loved it. Thoroughly absorbing story and characters.
Im glad you liked it!
I am nearly at the end of Evergreen Falls, and absolutely love it. The way you weave the story is wonderful, and I feel like I am there hovering over everyone. From the first page, you had me hooked, and I knew it was going to be a great read. I will finish it tonight. I have already requested your other books from the Library.
thank you so much! and you also have an awesome name.

I absolutely LOVED LOVED LOVED Evergreen Falls and Ember Island. I felt like I was right there with the characters and both books have stayed with me. Cant stop thinking about them! I’ve just ordered ALL your other books. Please keep writing!!! I love books with ‘then’ and ‘now’ plots that end up being connected. I’m off to start Lighthouse Bay tonight – can’t wait 🙂
Oh, I’m so glad you’re liking my books!!!
A friend recommended Wildflower Hill to me about a year ago. It was easily one of the best books I have ever read. You are a truly gifted author! I am starting Evergreen Falls tonight and cannot wait.
I hope you like it!!
Dear Kimberly , what a wonderful book you did ” Evegreen falls”. I loved it so much .
Maybe it is sound strange , but would be great if you can write the continuance of Evegreen Falls ( about Floras and Violets life).
Thanks you
