Wink and A Nod Thursday
This week's Wink and a Nod recipient is Stephanie Faris.Stephanie is a successful children's author and a freelance writer. She is one of the few who has managed to support herself through her writing...no easy feat. Her blog is one of my favorites. It's always interesting and the posts are professional.
Stephanie believes in supporting other authors. Once a month she posts her Best Books of the Month, featuring and reviewing other writers.
In keeping with the season, this month she's featuring spooky stories. If you haven't visited Stephanie before, I suggest you hurry over and get your socks scared off.

While she'll admit being published didn't fix all the wrongs in her life, she wishes her parents had lived to see her success. Dead Witnesswas a finalist in the 2012 Global eBook Awards. Broken But Not Dead won the 2012 IPPY Silver Medal, and its sequel Mâtowak Woman Who Cries is due for release November 1, 2016.Joylene lives with her husband and their two cats Marbles and Shasta on beautiful Cluculz Lake in central British Columbia.
