Yes, indeed! And I am thrilled with the artist’s concept of the story. She caught all the important ideas in one picture.

I am impatiently waiting for the manuscript to return, so I can look it over again and sign off on the final. My manicurist is going to hate me….

Sorry Diane.

Anyway, watch for the release of  Gambler’s Folly, coming in July.

Ciao, amici.

OK! I got my manuscript back from the editor at Siren, I’ve been through it–again–and just sent it back with my revisions. We’re still looking at a July release of the e-book. So all my friends out there who prefer e-format, it’s coming soon!

For those who prefer paper, it will probably be in November or December. So who’s buying books for Christmas gifts?

And in between revisions and releases, I’m working on a new novel, which I hope to submit to the publishers by August. Wish me luck!

Thanks for stopping by. And keep checking back for more news on Gambler’s Folly.

Ciao amici miei!

Yes, you read it correctly. I have signed a contract for Gambler’s Folly!  With any luck at all, the e-book will be out in July, followed by the print in November. I am so very excited! Hopefully the title will remain the same, but if not, that’s fine.

I’ll keep you posted on developments, so keep reading!

A Gift for a Lifetime

Posted in Fiction books, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on December 4, 2012| Leave a Comment »

December is here, and that means most of us will be buying gifts for friends and family. I always enjoyed receiving gifts which would last, that I could keep and enjoy for years to come. One of my favorites was a good book. I still have books from when I was in grade school. And that’s been a while. I also have one of my favorites that I bought for  25 cents at a thrift store one summer, By Right of Conquest, by Arthur Hornblow. It is a romance from another era, copyright 1909. I’ve moved this book from Ohio to California, Oregon to Georgia, and everywhere in between. Every couple of years or so, I dust it  off and enjoy the journey once more.

Why not find a good book for the readers on your list this year?  There are a lot of them out there, for readers of every kind. And if you simply must have something electronic, check out some of the e-readers available. My husband enjoys being able to take his library with him when he travels for work. Since he may be gone for weeks or months at a time, having a good selection of reading material with him helps pass the time in foreign climes.  As a nurse, our daughter enjoys having something small to take with her if she’s sitting up all night with a patient. And our grandson just likes his Kindle because its cool.

Check out the books on Amazon.com. You can buy electronic versions of many favorites, lend them to others, or just check them out of the library. Or if you’re like me and savor the feel of a good book in your hands, you can get those as well.

While you’re there, check out my stories at:

Or you can buy Jareth: First Lord in paperback at:

Have fun shopping.  Keep safe and have a wonderful holiday.

A piu tardi amici miei….

Coming soon

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , on September 2, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Now that my short stories are beginning to move, I will be adding my first novel to my Kindle         selections available on Amazon.  Jareth: First Lord is a romantic fantasy set on the world of Esperance.  Our hero, Jareth is First Lord of his clan. A descendant of the original Seekers, his psychic Talent overflows in all directions.  Alone again over two years since the death of his wife and First Lady, Jareth finds a new woman to court while in negotiations with a neighboring clan. Taking her back with him as part of the spoils, he now has the task of convincing her to be his wife. But this will be more difficult than he imagined, considering she is a daughter of the First Lord of her clan and as strong-willed as he is.

Jareth: First Lord will be available by September 15th, on Amazon’s Kindle.  See my author page for current selections.
