A Key to Knowledge

I always taught my children that if you can read, you can do just about anything. I still believe that this is true.

Part of the Process

This little comic strip depicts how I’ve felt the past few months. My normal writing schedule has been consumed by creating media streams and social roads, to bring people like you, to places like this.

I once heard someone say that life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer you get to the end, the faster it goes. It seems that way when you're very busy too.

This year has been a blur for me as I’ve spun, whirled and twirled around blogs, twitters, and sites to learn the authors' happy dance that comes after successful promotion.

I realize that promotion is all part of the process, but I've made up my mind right here and now, to get back to my writing. I will get back to my writing…I will get back….I will, I will, I will! :)

Making Memorial Day Memorable :)

So there we were, Mom and me, hauling things from her shed. The lawnmower came out, and then gloves, a long lost water bottle, and small garden tools were emptied from the wheelbarrow so we could take it to my car. Being younger and more agile, I lifted the wheelbarrow with a youthful attitude and quickly backed it out of the shed and right up onto the lawnmower. I went down and my legs went up, as Mom with arms aflutter, yelled, “Are you okay?!” I was half laughing because I couldn’t get up since I was sitting between the lower part of the mower handles with my legs up on  top of the motor thingy. She grabbed my hand and I still couldn’t get up because of the awkward position, so she used two hands to hoist me heavenward. After we stopped laughing, I thought, Gee, if she could lift me like that, she probably could’ve handle the bag of mulch without a wheelbarrow : )

Serendipity

I’ve been thinking about this whole book publishing and promoting business, and the most unexpected bonus that I have discovered is that there are some amazing people out there. Readers have written fantastic reviews that have truly blown me away. Twitterers have retweeted my tweets, and readers and authors have “liked” my facebook book page. I’ve been interviewed on one awesome blog, and read some others that are chocked full of information and encouragement, all of which have helped propel, someone like me, down the bestseller path. At this time, I don’t have a lot of followers on my blog, but I know people are reading it. So to those of you who fall into any of these categories, I would personally like to thank you! I truly appreciate each and every one of you.

LOOK! It's on NOOK! :)

For those of you with NOOK readers, my novel is now available at Barnes and Noble.
