About the Books
I had originally written Family Portrait as a television series then decided to convert it to a series of novels. At the heart of it all the series is about family, messed up or otherwise, you can choose your friends but you can’t choose your family. I hope you’ll give the series a try with a complimentary copy of Changes (Family Portrait Vol. 1) on Amazon, Smashwords, B&N, iBooks, Kobo. If you like it, tell your friends and subscribe to the newsletter in the right sidebar to get updates, new releases, and interact with the characters. I love hearing from readers feel free to contact me.
