I’m having a great writing day and will later treat myself to one of my favorite places. I bet you can relate.

What’s New
I’m writing–so that’s nothing new–but due to production and scheduling conflicts, THE AMBER STONE (yes the name has changed) will be a fall release instead of spring. However, to tide you over until July (when PERFECT MATCH comes out for those of you who enjoy my category romances), I hope you’ll enjoy BERRY PICKING, a short novel perfect for spring.
Paula is a thirty-something, single woman who thinks she knows the kind of man she wants. But when her friend sets her up on a blind date with a man who’s her total opposite, she feels she’s hit rock bottom. Unfortunately, pressure is building. Her mother wants her to marry a rich man. Her aunt wants her to marry for love. However, a trip to a berry patch soon forces her to see what she wants for herself.
It’s available for $3.99 on Amazon, Barnes and Noble , Smashwords and in other e-bookstores.

Yes, that includes books too. This quote explains why I haven’t written any long posts lately. I’m busy writing novels and stories and having a great time. I’ll tell you what I’ve been up to soon and there may be another (or more) “Writers are Crazy” post on the horizon.

Ignore your fears

Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.

A Year of Writing Dangerously an interview with Barbara Abercrombie
I was fortunate to get a chance to read Barbara Abercrombie’s latest release A YEAR OF LIVING DANGEROUSLY: 365 Days of Inspiration and Encouragement. It’s full of tips, anecdotes, quotes and more to help you get that book written and stay inspired throughout the process.
