This past week my publisher hosted two webinars to help educate their authors on marketing and branding our new books. I’m really excited about the future.

Falling in Love Again

Survival of the Fittest — New Flash Fiction
Hi everyone – This past week was interesting for me. On Monday I was finally able to share that Moonlight didn’t make the 4th round of the Writing with the Stars contest.

I thought about not saying anything, but this blog is really a journey, and I’ve shared all my ups and downs with all of you along the way. In fact, I never would have… Read More
