Paradox of Love


Happy Valentines!

With Valentine's Day this week, I decided to share my word for the 2024 year-- Love!

Do you struggle with loving other people? Where does that love come from? Click the pic below to read all about it!

CONGRATS TO This month's free ebook winner, Heleneneely1217. Be on the lookout for your ebook in the next few days!

I recently went to a marketing conference in Austin, TX and met some fantastic authors! I can't wait to share some of their books with you!

One of the big decisions I have to make is how to publish my next book. The publishing agency I was with is going in a different direction, and now I am faced with going with another publisher or ultimately going indie! Do you have a preference when you are reading books? Do you only read traditionally published books or give an indie author a chance? Please reply back and let me know! I greatly value your opinion!!

Author Spotlight:

Children's Author Melissa Ray

I had the opportunity to meet Melissa Ray at a book conference a couple of years ago. I love her books and the much-needed message she brings to the world. Her children's books are inspired by her grandpa, a sharecropper who later worked for NASA!

You can check out my interview with her on YouTube. Her books are available on Amazon and her website, www.melissalray.com

Hi friends! I can’t believe I’m writing this… but we’re down to the final 2 days of this Kickstarter. This project has been such a meaningful journey for me. Creating this audiobook—and inviting others into the process—has reminded me not only how powerful stories really are, but also of having a community rallying together in support your dream. If you’ve been thinking, “I’ll come back to this later,” this is your gentle nudge 💛 Later is now. By backing the project, you’re not just...

Hi friends, I’m going to be a little vulnerable here. I launched a Kickstarter to fund the audiobook for A Wisp of Faith, and with 20 days left, I’m only at 3%. Audiobooks are expensive to produce, and I truly can’t do this without your support. I believe this story matters — especially for people who don’t have time to sit and read, or who find comfort in listening. My goal is just $600, which covers basic narration costs.
