A Hitch in the Stride

Please don't purchase any of my books from ARe (All Romance e-books).

Also, if you haven't [...]

Loved the courthouse and the museum. Downtown was so clean and spacious and the city is extremely walk-able. The week I spent there [...]

Branding and the Independent Creative

I recently attended a panel discussion designed to help the independent creative -- musician, writer, performance artist, artist, photographer, etc. -- learn how to brand herself.

Please Accept Our Sincere Apologies

As Ros said, those of you who pre-ordered the book from amazon, please accept our sincerest apologies for this debacle.

the one who writes

If you pre-ordered Oh, What a Christmas and/or Christmas Wishes & Kisses from Amazon you did not get the entire file. There were changes made that for reasons we don’t understand did not go through. THIS IS FOR THE PRE-ORDERS ONLY.

We apologize for the inconvenience, but in order to get the corrected books, you’ll need to return and then re-buy them. Again, we are so sorry this happened.

Hold on to those pre-order receipts and we’ll make it up to you on the next book in the series, Putting the EX in Christmas. Again, this is for the pre-orders only from Amazon. All other copies of the book are fine. 

Oh, What a Christmas

Christmas Wishes & Kisses
