Never give up. No matter how many rejections, how much you second guess yourself, never quit. It's a brutal business that requires thick skin, so put on your armor every day and go to work. If you get negative feedback, improve. If you have a crazy life and a job and kids and you think you don't have time, make the time. And you don't have to be a full time writer to succeed. I have a full time day job and write evenings and weekends. If you want it bad enough, don't make excuses. Do the laundry at midnight while you sit your butt in a chair and work on your craft. If you ever want it to surpass "hobby" status, punch in like it's a job.

I just read Don't let go . If I could hug you I would, It's such a remarkable, loving book like The notebook by Nicholas Spark and Sweet gum tree by Katherine Allred combined into one . It's 4am when I'm writing this just finished reading it. Instead of tired eyes I have teary eyes. Thank you. Did you or would you ever write Seth Ryan book? He was so damn sweet and I felt like he had a story to tell ?

I wanted to say "thank you" for the opportunity to receive "The Cowboy who Saved Christmas" book through the Goodreads giveaways. I LOVED IT. I loved that it was a single father (widow) angle because majority of the love stories surrounds a single mother finding the man to sweep her off her feet. Is there a reason you chose that angle?

Dear Sharla, I realy loved Don't let go. It was 5 star read. Natasha is a book junkie recommended it, so I bought it, but when I found out on Natasha's page that there is new epilog I downloaded it again from Amazon. It seams like I bought your book for a second time. It isn't fair that I have to pay two times for same book just to read new epilog of my favorite characters? But what is done it's done!
