About this author

I am an amimal loving keeper of pet laying hens belonging to the Hens' Only Club.

My latest title, Aaron & Keja: Time Dragon is an epic fantasy with a different twist.

In most fantasies the Orcs are the bad guys and the elves are the good guys. So, in Aaron & Keja: Time Dragon, I reversed the roles.


Yesterday was our Monadnock Writers' Group meeting. For those of
you who do not know about this meeting; we meet every third Saturday of the
month at the Peterborough Library. It is also open to the public. Then from June
to August we all take a break for the summer and begin meeting once again in
September.


If you have never been to a writers' group meeting I would like
to suggest that yo... read more »

Linda Nelson I have become so fond of reading on my kindle it is now hard to open a print book and sit down and read it.

What's that all about?

I think it is the fact that I can change the font size to something more comfortable to my eyes.

Linda Nelson So much for that proof copy of Aaron & Keja: Time Dragon. I had to do one more edit... I guess I missed a couple of chapters. I am still shooting for August 27th for the release date for the paperback.
I am trying so hard to make this book better than the last one I wrote.
I will keep telling myself, "I can do this."

Linda Nelson I would like to thank the last reviewer of Friends of Choice for their review. I found this review the most helpful. She stated that there was a couple of paragraphs that were duplicated in the book. I went to check on the area she had mentioned about in the review,which was also helpful and I found it was worse than she made it out to be. I not only duplicated the paragraphs, I duplicated the chapter...
So this weekend I will do a major overhaul of Friends of Choice, but chapter by chapter in seperate files...it will be the only way I will be able to see what is really wrong with this story. So thank you reviewers for every one star rating you have given me. It has been a real learning experience :)
