I had to take September 15th off my front page as the tentative release date for the e-book and at the moment, I don’t have a new release date at all (tentative or otherwise). I am told that a copy editor is brushing off the grammar and spelling errors and that an artist is working […]

Eating Disorders
If you read my novel, you’ll notice that many of my characters suffer from eating disorders of one kind of another. One is anorexic, another is bulimic, and a third has an unofficial eating disorder that I truly believe exists – sometimes called overeating disorder or compulsive overeating disorder (you can look it up on […]
“I couldn’t put it down!”
Today, I received my first unbiasd review (meaning not from a friend or relative) and I was thrilled! I’m working on a review section of the website and will put that up as soon as I can. What comes next? Well, the first thing we need to do is get this book out to the […]

Still not done with the cover art
You have probably noticed that my front page now boasts a cover to my book, but I feel obliged to tell you that this will not be the real, permanent cover art. We’re still working on that. Twilight Times was eager to get the book out during the Muse Online Conference so they went with […]
First Reactions
What a great week! Touch of Fate has been available for 4 days and already I have several people telling me that they can’t put the book down! I’m just all smiles.
The Immortality Virus
I thought it would be fun to keep you up to date on what it is I’m working on for the future. Touch of Fate is my first novel, but it will not be my last! A month ago I put the words “THE END” at the bottom of a new rough draft — The […]
Back to the beginning…
Today it occurred to me that in all my posts about how and where my novel was, I never took you back to the very beginning. When did I start Touch of Fate? How did I get the idea? How many drafts did I go through and how long did it take to write? Before […]
