I write like author Joe blogs, is that good?
What is all this talk about style of writing? Hey, it’s your baby, your creation. Are you an individual or a sheep disguised as a human?

updated Mar 29, 2010 04:36pm
Description:
Sarah wanted to escape the city life and her wealthy family. Moving from mainland Australia, she purchased a farm in Tasmania. Persistent, yet green to rural living, the new next door neighbour has her attention and she’s out to win his heart in the most embarrassing ways.
A family tragedy turns her life upside down and her little farm into spook central. Learn the secrets of the after life; you too may have many freeloaders at your address and not all were once human. Australian author Christine Jones writes for many genres from science fiction fantasy to humor. Though the characters in this book are fictitious, many of the incidents took place and by yours truly. The farm itself is real, right down to every description. I ought to know, I once owned it. CJ

Greetings, Christine! Just dropping by this morning to say hello and see how you are doing.Blast! I still haven't gotten to your second Mariard book, have I? And I wanted to read Aus.com, also. As a wise one once said, "So many books, so little time"!
Ann B. Keller
Hi Christine, thanks for your comment on my profile. Yes, I have already joined SFA, and I think it's a great cause. I will be adding my new book to the list on the SFA website as soon as it's publishedBest,
Maria
Hi Christine - thanks for the note about the Shadow Forest Authors. It's a great idea and I'll sign up.
Thanks for stopping by my page, Christine. Nice to hear from you. Hope all is going well for you. I'm almost ready to publish 'Pieces of a Rainbow', just reading through the final proof. Best,
Maria
Hi Christine,What a delight to hear from you! Thank-you very much for thinking of me :)
I am so happy to see Shadow Forest Authors doing so well. You have much to be proud of!!
Your friend & proud SFA member,

Chris, I have not talked to you in a long time. It was great to hear from you. How's the weather "down under". I hope you and your family are all well and happy. Have a great day mate!
Tommy
How kind of you to drop by, Chris! That was wonderful.I DO have a question for you, though. I was staring at all of my books the other day and wondering whether I could ship some of them off to Shadow Forest Authors. Is that allowed? How do I go about doing that? I assume that these books do not necessarily have to be my works, but could be some of the classics, reference, sci-fi, romance, western, etc.
Let me know when you have a second. I'd love to send them some place where I know they'll do considerable good.
Ann B. Keller
Good morning Christine and how sweet of you to stop by to say hi. Girl, I just got back from WY where our youngest son, Garry lives. His wife flew me in (my hubby had to work) to surprise him for his birthday! We pulled it off with a bang! Aren't I blessed to have a dnl that loves me that much? Most girls would want to send their mother-in-laws AWAY...ha!Hope you're having an awesome summer.
Blessings,
Jeannie

Thanks for dropping by, Christine! And thanks for all the work you've done at Shadows Authors. It's such a great cause and I love it there. :-) I may be adding another book to the library soon! If there's anything else I can do to help the cause please let me know.P.S. I have Aus Com on my phone and I can't wait to read it. I love the blurb!
