Radio Interview
I recently interviewed with Jennifer Wilkov, Your Book Is Your Hook, and discussed the writing of Megan's Way. My interviewed followed an interview with Lane Shefter-Bishop, Founder of Vast Entertainment. She shared a fountain of vital information for any author who is looking to take their book to the next step; the big screen. If you have a few minutes, I strongly suggest that you stop by and listen to the interviews!
Proud and Thankful
I am pleased to say that the Midwest Book Review has given Megan's Way a 5 star review on Amazon! Many thanks, Midwest!
Saving Tracey
Coming soon...
Every parent’s worst nightmare is losing their child.
Saving Tracey, previously titled, The Knowing, is a paranormal mystery about the disappearance of seven-year-old Tracey Porter. Her disappearance mirrors the abduction of Kate Plumber, which took place twenty years earlier—Kate was never seen again.
Something wonderful
There's something wonderful about loving what you do for a living. Getting up every day and looking forward to work makes life fantastic. But then again, even when my jobs weren't fun, I still looked forward to them. Is it just me, or is life just plan fabulous every day?
Find your happy place in each day. Then share that smile with someone else!
Thanks for reading!

Screenplay writing
Today I embarked on a new project for Megan's Way; the screenplay! I've researched the process, and I surely am no expert, but while I hunt down a professional screenplay writer to undertake the project, I decided to give it a try.
The process is complex, and calls for a much different writing style than that of a novel. I find myself wanting to draw out the characters and details, and of course, there is no need for minutia in a screenplay. Interesting, and taxing!

I had the good fortune of meeting a local reader today named Stephanie. She is a lovely person with two precious boys. I felt very privileged to have met her through an online reading site, and I look forward to a wonderful friendship with her!
Stephanie, if you're reading my blog, it was great to meet you!

♪♫•*Wishful Wednesday ♪♫•*
I, like many others, are saddened by what has happened in Haiti. When you see the images, please remember that this IS REAL. People are suffering, they have lost all that they've made, bought, grown, prayed for, earned.
I am terming today Wishful Wednesday (for me). I am reminded of stories, recently, where people have knocked others for posting bra colors in hopes of raising Breast Cancer Awareness, where people are mocked for trying to reach out. I have a different opinion.
I believe that giving is caring. Giving of your time, your energy, your emotions.
ⓦⓡⓘⓣⓘⓝⓖ!
Getting creative today and writing more of Come Back To Me, a fiction novel. I love creating the characters and am always surprised by the personalities they have when they come to me. One of my characters appears to be asexual. This should be very fun! I can't wait to watch the story unfold!
Thanks for reading!
