Unleash your Story


My son Chase has cystic fibrosis so when I found out that there was a fundraiser for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation that involved writing and reading, I was in.

My goal is to write at least 15,000 words through the month of September. If you would like to join me and write your own goal of words written or words read for you readers, join in the fun.

I've also decided to donate my book proceeds for this month to the Foundation. I won't get a statement on how many books sold for several months though so you'll need to comment or email me if you buy one of my books so I can get the money in to the fundraiser faster.



Support my efforts!
Thank you for your support. Chase wouldn't have the quality of life he has without kind people like you.
As an Officer on her drill team this year, Alannah got to choreograph and teach the little girls one of the dances for their junior dance camp. She had a great time teaching them. Here's the dance.


Contest Winners


Here's Red drawing the winner from a hat.
l a mitchell has won a copy of Upon Eagle's Light and the moon inspired necklace. I'll be contacting you to get your mailing info.

And abookblogger and windycindy have each won an ebook copy. I'm so excited to get these out.

Speaking of contests, UEL's cover is entered in two contests. One at The New Covey Awards and the other is at The Author's Lounge If you like my cover, go to these sites and vote for it. Much obliged.

My first Contest

In Celebration of my first book coming out in Print March 7th, I'm holding my very first contest. It will run the entire month of March. March is one of my favorite months with all the "clovers" and "green" running around. And yes, I do have a wee bit of Irish in me, and wed a "Patrick" during a leap year. That'd be 5 leap years ago if ye care to do the math.

Back to the contest. The first place winner will receive a signed copy of Upon Eagle's Light in print and this beautiful moon inspired necklace I picked up at an antique shop.
It's beautiful, right? I love it and it's the closest thing I could find that fits the book, due to Eaglekins getting their ability from sunlight. (Yeah, I know, it's the moon not the sun, but I liked it.)

Two second place winners will receive an ebook copy of Upon Eagle's Light.

All you have to do is leave me a comment at the end of the post. Easy. I'll put your names in a hat and have my son (the red head of course) draw for the winners at the end of the month.

Let luck be with you and thanks for visiting.

It's here


They came in the mail. Yes, my book is in print. I can hold it in my hand and see my name scrolled across the bottom. It's an incredible feeling. Aren't these babies beautiful? Come back and visit my blog in March when I host my very first contest to celebrate the print release.
