I've been very lax of late on my blogging, and I apologize. Deep, scraping bow kind of apologize. Everything is about to explode in my world--in a good way--but explosions nonetheless. But first I want to put a shout out for my Off The Beaten Path blog feature tomorrow! This month I have RWA-WF chapter's very own Pam Morsi! SO excited, and you will love her wit and charm. She's giving away a signed copy of her latest book THE LOVESICK CURE to a random commenter, so be sure to come play with us!! JUST ONE DAY, my first time writing a novella, started with Nook First last week, which runs ... Read More
It takes a village…or just some really cool people…
WANT TO HELP ME? It takes a village! LOL! No, I don't need you to raise my kids. :-) Just maybe raise a little awareness of a certain book... You can help a debut author breathe a little easier and spread the word! The best way for an unknown book to become known is by word of mouth. So share the news with your friends, family, that chatty chick at work... Facebook it, Tweet it, blog it, put a review on Amazon or Barnes and Noble... and know you have my undying gratitude. I'll even send you chocolate. :) And if you want me to do a video chat on your blog telling ... Read More
Shout it out!! :-)
Whew!! It was a whirlwind few weeks there during the blog tour, and I met some fantastic people and new readers. Now it's time to focus on getting the word out about THE REASON IS YOU so that my editor will be happy and want to sign me up for more books! LOL! It's also time to crack down on writing again, because with BEFORE AND EVER SINCE only seven months away from release, promo is about to start on it as well. Crazy, huh? :-) So please help me out if you can...spread the word...check your bookstores for REASON and if it's not there (probably shelved in Fiction), then ask them to ... Read More

I know it's time for the book to jump out there on its on and sink or swim, but there's been something comforting all along about knowing it was still ... Read More

It's like being in line for the roller coaster, looking up at it, and knowing all hell is about to break loose. LOL. Promo and pimpage for THE REASON IS YOU is about to start.
