Want to know what's up with me? Here's my January newsletter

I'm honored to say I've been sending out a monthly newsletter since November 2006, almost a year before my first release Guilty of Love. Since that time, I've made it shorter and sweeter to accommodate those who read them on their mobile phones. Check it out. http://eepurl.com/bJ71E9

Happy New Year! "Ten Things I Learned About Publishing in 2015" REPOST

Welcome to 2016. After a few weeks of detoxing characters from my head, I started writing my first 2016 release: Every Woman Needs A Praying Man.  When I took a break to check my email, someone shared this article. For all my author friends, this one is for you.

Day 30 of 30 Titles in December

Well, this is the final December posting of my published works since 2007, and the journey has been trying at times, rewarding at others, but always humbling to the glory of God. With 2016 two days away, it seems appropriate to leave you with my first non-fiction piece. Actually, it was a testimony included in Keeping the Faith anthology. "If I Should Die Before I Wake" is a "but God" praise that has settled in my soul. It's only ten pages and free to download. If you're still in the holiday spirit, don't forget about A NOELLE FOR NATHAN. Want a second chance at love? THE CONFESSION will give you hope. Thanks for reading and happy New Year!

Day 29 of 29 Titles in December A Noelle For Nathan

For three years in a row, I've been able to give readers a Christmas tale to enjoy (A Christian Christmas, A Baby for Christmas and Christmas Greetings). However, with travel demands and writing deadlines this year, I was doubtful I could move forward with just an idea and nothing more. As a matter of fact, readers in my Christian author Pat Simmons FB group came up with the title. Even the cover for A Noelle for Nathan was revised three times!! I also realized by telling Nathan's story, I had created and concluded a series that hadn't been in my original scheme of things. A Noelle for Nathan became Book 3 in the Andersen Brothers series. I have to say I've received great reviews on a story that was almost wasn't told. Enjoy it today with a 1-Click on Amazon.

Day 28 of 28 Titles in December The Confession

After I gave readers Sandra Nicholson's Back Story this past summer, fans waited impatiently, judging from emails I received, for the release of her story in The Confession. Not only did the Jamieson Legacy continue, but this was my first full-length novel with characters in their mid-fifties finding love again. In this 2015 **New Release,** Kidd and Ace's mother is the epitome of a godly woman after Christ's salvation set her free from past regrets. Of course, it wouldn't be part of the Jamieson Legacy without some Black history tidbits weaved into the story line. The next book in the series is already in the works. While you wait, enjoy A NOELLE FOR NATHAN now.

Day 27 of 27 Titles in December Driven to Be Loved

Driven to Be Loved was my third full-length novel in 2015, behind In Defense of Love and Redeeming Heart.  Brecee's story wasn't included in my original proposal to Whitaker House, so I had to come up with a story idea in less than four months. Plus, as with every book, I had to do my research and the clock was ticking toward that January 1, 2015 deadline to my publisher. I'm always grateful when busy professional people take my calls and reply to my emails, otherwise, my stories would lack depth. I began to write not knowing where the story would go. By page 100, the Lord gave me direction and everything seemed to fall in place. Just for fun, I included a little known fact about me at the end of Adrian and Brecee's story. Also, make A NOELLE FOR NATHAN a fun holiday read.

Day 26 of 26 Titles in December Sandra Nicholson Backstory

I never thought juggling between series was such a task. By this time in my writing career, I had four: The Guilty/Jamieson Legacy series; Carmen Sisters series; Love at The Crossroads; and Anderson Brother series. In my mind, I dare not introduce the series waiting in the wing until I bring these to a close. Since I fell in love with Kidd and Ace Jamieson's mother, Sandra Nicholson, in Guilty by Association, The Guilt Trip and finally, Free from Guilt, I wanted her to find happiness. Sandra had gambled on love and lost, or so she thought, but there is life after a betrayal. In this short read, I wanted to bring my readers up-to-date before Sandra got a second chance at love in The Confession. You don't have to read Sandra Nicholson's Back Story before reading The Confession, but if you do, Sandra will win your heart. Another short read, A NOELLE FOR NATHAN, makes a great day after Christmas holiday read.

Day 25 of 25 Titles in December. A Redeeming Heart

If you'd read In Defense of Love, you remember Landon Thomas, a man who deserved every fiery dart aimed at him for his mischief. Originally, my plan was to have Landon's story as a sequel of In Defense of Love, but my publisher decided to stick with the Carmen Sisters as the main characters. Okay, but Landon's story needed to be told. As another indie project, I was back to naming the title game again, not a small task when I had to consider phrase recognition, key words, plus the story plot. All I knew was God can redeem any repenting soul, but it had to come from the heart. Not a small task for Landon Thomas in Redeeming Heart. Have a Merry Christmas. Enjoy the day by downloading a heartwarming tale, A NOELLE FOR NATHAN.

Day 24 of 25 Titles in December In Defense of Love

My second favorite book, In Defense of Love, kicked off my 2015 releases. A major scene in the story was inspired by the late Sister Patterson's testimony at my church. The awesomeness of God was manifested, so I had to share it with my readers--a surprise ending. :) I was excited when my literary agent at the time told me a film company requested to read the manuscript. She said it was a long shot. Whether film company picks it up or not, I feel at least someone "proposed to me" whether I make it to the altar or not with a movie deal. Glad I'm married. :) A NOELLE FOR NATHAN would make a great Christmas Eve read.

Day 23 of 25 Titles in December Christmas Greetings

I ended 2014 with Christmas Greetings.  God gave me this touching story for those who were brokenhearted during the holidays, whether because of the death of a loved one or the drama between the ones they loved. As I wrote this novella, I cried, smiled and praised God throughout the story. My hope was that the process of emotional and spiritual healing began for readers who felt empty inside. Another uplifting Christmas story is A NOELLE FOR NATHAN.
