So I just checked out some of my new reviews on my books, and this review of Valentino brought tears to my eyes. This book, more than any other, was a labour of love. I am so grateful that this story has touched someones heart so profoundly.

“Maddie who is blind is not what I expected in character. She does not let her disability get in her way. The thing that brings her down is the situation she was in and even then it took a while before she started to have negative thoughts. August I liked as well, he was not what I expected a teenage boy to act like but then he did have a different up bringing so he acted mature yet he still had doubts. This is more due to the fact that he is only 16 and has not really experienced life.
I loved the book! It is based more on family, faith (no matter what that is), belief in yourself, never giving up and love for family, friends and animals. The author had me crying at times and my heart beating in anticipation.
I would highly recommend this to all since it is a clean read. “

I have never grown out of my love of Sir Lancelot, dragons, castles, kings, queens, and dragons. I had fun writing and recording this story. I used my best Sean Connery voice for Andrath, the voice of the dragon. lol  But without the wonderful accent. Hope my fans enjoy it.

Then it is almost time to let you know that The King of Christmas is ready to entertain you. lol

I had so much fun writing this story. I am in the process of recording the audio book, but I keep bursting out laughing. Hopefully, my fit of giggles will cease soon. Hey, what’s not to laugh about when the three little pigs give Santa’s reindeer the swine flu.

The ebook and print book are now available on Amazon, but I won’t release the audio book until November.

Stay warm, stay dry, and stay safe.

I am so thrilled. Valentino just received its first review on Amazon an Audible…and it was five stars. I even received a personal thank you email from the reviewer as she enjoyed the story so much. Shelley Reece did an outstanding job narrating it. Her attention to detail especially in relation to pronunciation of the Haida prayer was amazing.

Independence is finally starting to get some great 4 star and 5 star reviews on Amazon, Audible and Goodreads. Here is the latest: Independence on Amazon

 

Independence is about to have a new look thanks to Yvonne Olson and her boys. Susan Tremblay took this stunning photo and has graciously consented to allowing me to use it.

If you ever at one of the fairs on Vancouver Island, especially in the Courtenay area, you will see Yvonne and her driving team of Norwegian Fjords out and about. Say hello. Yvonne and her partner, Don, and their Fjords were very patient with me when I was learning to drive.

Thanks to all.

Inspired by the true story of the horse that got left behind.

I can’t believe it. What a year already. I have written and released five new books this year already and have plans for another 2, maybe 3. I can’t say how happy, and grounded, I am in being able to do what I love so much.
