AUTHOR UPDATE & GIVEAWAY
Writing Heartstrings
She’s just turned seventeen, and Emeline is maturing into an independent, confident young woman. It’s funny how the characters become “alive” as I’m writing. It’s like they’re writing the story, and I’m just along for the ride. How fun!
A Journey - Emeline Series Book #1
PREORDER NOW!
Illustrated 2nd edition
I promised I’d show you the new cover, and here it is. Once we correct the typo on the back blurb, we will send it to the printer to be PUBLISHED. Copies will be ready in early August for mailing, so please spread the word, and pre-order now. Same story, new cover, and black and white illustrations not included originally. Can you find the typo? Email me if you see it and I’ll send you one of the full-color illustrations for A Journey..
Remember, this is the same story as Emeline - A Journey. That edition will be out of print as soon as we publish the 2nd edition. I still have copies of the 1st edition for free. If you know of a place that will accept out-of-print books in quantity, please let me know.
Upcoming Interviews
I’m so excited to meet with these folks. look for them in your inbox and/or my website on the 3rd tuesday of the month & Please share with your friends.
July: Stephanie Landsem. Stephanie is a Christian author of adult historical fiction novels. Here’s the one I’m reading now, her newest release, but I want to read all her books. She’s amazing. You AND your older teens will love them.
In August, I’m thrilled to meet with S.D. Smith, author of the Green Ember series for children. His stories are dangerous — on purpose: to give kids the courage to be lights in a dark world. Which character is your child’s favorite? Everyone has their own, probably because they identify with them.
In September, we’ll chat with Michelle, of Whispering Pines Farmstead, about making homemade soaps and other crafts. Perfect for Christmas gift-giving ideas.
