free novelette

Free on May 13th and 14th–“Envelopes of Hope.”My first book, this was inspired by my daughter. When she went into rehab, she wrote a letter thanking me for not giving up on her. It is the story of a young girl who finds her way into the darkness of drugs and with the support of her family, she finds her way out. You may notice the formatting is a little off or simple things like that–but keep in mind, it’s my first book. I hope you enjoy
it.https://www.amazon.com/Envelopes-Hope...

Just contact me after you “follow” me, either through the contact page or by direct e-mail (put free book on the subject line, please) and give me your mailing information. That’s all you have to do.
"My Name is Rebecca" is the story of a father and his sons who emigrated from Russia to the United States in the early 1900s, living in New York and then settling in Wisconsin. The reader accompanies the family as they leave behind their home land to escape persecution and poverty, searching for religious freedom and a better life. They bring not only their beliefs and traditions to America, but they also bring the story of their family to hand down to future generations. The story is based on my mother’s family who came from Europe in the early 1900s. The story is dedicated to all families who have come for a better life, which is everyone’s family.

Stressful times

Hi--While you're at home during this stressful time, you may be able to catch up on your reading. Perhaps you won one of my books in one of my many giveaways and haven't gotten around to reading it--now would be a good time. Or if you've read it and didn't have the time to leave a review, now may also be a good time to do so. And--if you entered one of my giveaways and didn't win, send me an email and I'll gift it to you. Now, can you refuse an offer like that in these stressful times? My email is: mirikal1210@gmail.com

I hope to hear from you--after all, we are all in this together.

Stay well.

Phyllis
