Just 1 day until Book Nine Arrives!

Happy Sunday, everyone! Here we are, just 1 DAY LEFT before the release of my 9th novel, THE SOCCER PLAYER AND THE SINGLE MOM. To help pass the time (because the week before release day is always a nail biter for me!) I’ve been doing a “Meet the Characters” event leading up to release day, sharing sneak peeks at the characters in my story. Today, we end with the hero that started it all.

So here we go … 1 day an counting …

Pre-release Fun Begins Tomorrow

[image error]Happy Sunday, everyone! Wow, it’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted, having spent the majority of my non-writing author time over on social media. It’s hard, in this day and age, to know where exactly I’ll have my greatest “reach”.

Blogging? Twitter? Facebook? Sandwich board on a street corner?…

Since the forecast is calling for cold, cold, and more cold this week, I’m scrapping the street corner idea before it gets one iota of traction. LOL However, I thought in the week before release of...

Book Signing Event This Weekend!

Happy Thursday, everyone! Wanted to share that my last planned book event of 2018 is coming up this weekend in Fort Wayne. The amazing TG Wolff and I will be signing books, sharing favorite excerpts, and doing some giveaways this Saturday, December 1st at Half Price Books from 1-3pm (533 E Coliseum Blvd E).

Skip the crowded malls and stop out Saturday to grab some unique gifts for the readers on your holiday lists. And heck, grab a few dozen books from Half Price’s shelves while you’re there–...

Persist

As we head into the flurry of holiday activities, I think the word that comes to mind for me this year is relief. 2018 has just been a strange year.

I found love / I lost love

I made new friends / I clung tight existing ones

I wrote some books / Got a kickass new agent / Rewrote some books…

My oldest is getting more independent, and our mommy/son days are evolving / I’ve been getting more one-on-one time with my youngest

In other words, a lot has changed, and a lot has stayed the same.

So wha...
