Inspiring & Uplifting

This month, I will have been actively on this course of writing/publishing for one year. Before I began, I was terrified – terrified – of going forward. Whenever I knew someone was reading what I’d written, I’d get nervous, anxious, obsess about hearing back. How in the world I ever got up the courage to hit “publish” on the first book – Sapphire Ice – is nothing short of God’s perfect will pushing me out of any and all comfort zones.

Wow.

On Monday night, February 4, 2013 my little novella, Greater Than Rubies, became available as a free ebook on Amazon. It is now February 7 and at the time of this writing, there are 58,248 free Kindle ebooks on Amazon in just about every genre you could possibly imagine.

I don’t know what happened to …

The Trilogy is Complete!

Thursday night, I finished Topaz Heat.  I read through it, made minor changes here and there, laughed and cried with the book (strangely, since I wrote it) then I sent it off to my beta readers.  It’s out of my hands now (for the time being). In my opinion, it’s the best book I’ve written.  Hopefully, …
