Marketing...

Ok, the radio interview with hostess, Cynthia Brian, is set for May 12th at 3:30 pst. I am a little nervous! This self-marketing is tough, so I hope this interview will start the ball rolling. I have sent out some emails to other radio shows asking for interviews. I hope something comes of it...

My book signing event is set for May 20th. I am a little scared about this too! I have never conducted a "reading" before. I have shown my artwork in different venues and NEVER felt nervous because I am very confident in my art. But my writing?? Now that's another story....

So, much prayer is called for. I want to appear relaxed and confident in my story. I know this story like the back of my hand! I have lived with it for many years. I feel as though Peter is my second son and Illiath is a place I have actually been to.

I hope my enthusiasm and love for my characters comes through!

The Dragon Forest

FINALLY!!! My book has been released! My release party will be at Ethington Theatre at Grand Canyon University, May 20th at 6pm.

Hope to see you there!!!

Preliminary Book Cover

I am hoping we can do a cover design similar to this one....

Contract!!

Finally received my contract!! Now to design the cover....this is so exciting!

The Dragon Forest

FINALLY!!!! I heard from my publisher and they are sending the contract out for me to sign! It is a reality! My book will finally be published. After 2 years of waiting, I was about to give up. But NEVER give up, as Winston Churchill once said. NEVER give up!!!

God hears and answers prayers. Now I am praying that the book will be done soon so I can market it and get it into the hands of kids everywhere to read!!

Stay tuned.....

Blessings,
