    Ho ho holiday shopping!

    Greetings! This blog is more of a newsletter of past and future events that evolve around some sort of shopping. Gotta love retail therapy! Make sure you reach the end for the special GIVEAWAY! I'm pleased to announce that my very first in-person event as a published author at the Hope Community Church Bazaar on November 9 was a success! I was so nervous in the beginning to the point of shaking. Fortunately, after my first signature, I was fine. Saturday, November 30 from 1 t

    Punta Cana, a Destination Wedding

    My family and I recently came back from Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic where my brother had a destination wedding at the Majestic Elegance Resort. The trip was absolutely fabulous! We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The resort provided various activities to keep the guests entertained. A foam party was the first scheduled event at the swim up bar pool. This is where they shot foam out of a giant tube and played games while playing festive dance music. As one who lov

    Why am I an author?

    My goal is for readers to see God's reflection in my writing, if only a glimmer of his glory.

    Junior Prom

    As promised here is an excerpt from my debut Novel, Not Again. This scene is circa 1985. After greeting one another and settling in to the evening, the music cranked up signaling it was time to get this party started. Upon hearing “Material Girl,” I grabbed my date and raced onto the dance floor. Nothing got my blood pumping to dance like Madonna did. What a great way to kick off Prom! The festive mood exploded with “Relax” by Frankie Goes to Hollywood. The flashing colored l

    And the winner is...

    March 21, 2019 was the release of my very first interview/blog with my book and me being the subject. The blogger, Robin, did a fabulous job! All along I had the confidence that she would do me proud so I asked her to reveal my cover. And I was so impressed with the way she did it. I hope you like my cover. In addition to the interview and the cover reveal, there was a giveaway for a $10.00 gift card. This was my very first giveaway too. The winner of the gift card is... Jen

    Obstacles Lead to Strength

    This post is long overdue and for that I apologize. The good news is that you haven't been bombarded with updates about my debut novel, Not Again. The not-so-good news is that I have been swamped. I thought Not Again would have been published by now. However, one thing after another, all novel related, has prevented me from publishing. Each set back along the way has been challenging, but I'm determined to give this my all as I have already invested so much in my baby. The am

    Turning The BIG Five O

    I hit that monumental mark of turning a half century old right before Thanksgiving. My sights were set on publishing my first novel before I turned 50. Unfortunately, that didn't happen due to technical difficulties beyond my control. This was a devastating blow to me as I had the execution of my debut novel all mapped out- in my head. It would have been perfect timing that would have coincided with holiday craft fairs and events and when everyone is their merriest. However,
