All That Makes Life Bright is the third "True Romance" I have done, the others were about Henry Longfellow and then Sir Walter Scott. I'm so glad you liked it :-) Thank you for your note, and I wish you the best :-)

Dear Reader: How to Express Negative Feedback

 

I recently received an email from a reader who did not like an aspect of my novel "Rakes and Roses." I've asked her permission to share the dialogue we had for two reasons.

Kimberly Hi Josi! I'm rereading "To Have or to Hold" at the moment. I had to tell you, it's refreshing to read a novel that is placed in Utah that doesn't take place in South Salt Lake. It seems like most people think that Northern Utah ends at Salt Lake. They forget Bountiful and all the lovely cities that are north of there. :)
