My Virtual Book Tour

Here it is, the 9th day of my book tour and everything seems to be going great. Today I am at the Boomer Chic blog, but unfortunately, the URL I have listed doesn't work. So I can't sign in and let people know I'm there. I guess these things do happen, but perhaps I can discover what the problem is and finally sign in.

While I'm on my book tour, other things are happening. As a member of the Readers Station, several authors, myself included, have put together an anthology. We had a contest to name the anthology and one of our readers won by naming it "Journeys of a Lifetime" by members of the Readers' Station. The anthology will be released by Write Words, Inc., as an ebook with their imprint ebooksonthe.net, and in print by their imprint Cambridge books. The print edition will be available for sale on Amazon.com. Nine authors have contributed to this anthology and it is bound to take you on many interesting and surprising journeys. Look for it...it will be available within the coming month.

Virtual Book Tour

Hi, All:

Yesterday was my third day of my virtual book tour. Couldn't help but wonder how many popped in for a look see...Whatever the number, I hope they enjoyed reading the interview.

We have the week-end off, but will be back on tour on Monday.

Thank you!

New Contract-The Imposter

Hi, All!

I have a new contract, my ninth, with my publisher, Write Words, Inc., for my contemporary novella entitled The Imposter, which will be released soon. It is different than what I normally write, but thought you might be interested in an excerpt to the book:

Excerpt - The Imposter

It all began with a newspaper article in a major local paper. According to the article, a woman sold a book she had written as "property" to a movie producer, and as a result, a new nighttime television series was born. The series, fifteenth in the ratings, had been running successfully for several years. Naturally, this made Mrs., although she preferred to be called Ms., our local novelist, a heroine of sorts and, as she portrayed herself, a willing contact in the arts.
Two local women, having read this article and believing in its validity, were hoping for an avenue to open up for their talents through a mutual contact, since they were both involved with writing and producing a musical stage play. A phone call to this "successful Hollywood Writer" resulted in a meeting at which time she promised to be their "contact". With the addition of their artist friend, the imposter led them down a twisted path of well-placed lies and acts of deception This clever imposter had beguiled professionals and novices alike at their own disciplines.

My Virutal Tour

Well, it's the second day of the tour, we had the Fourth of July off. Went to my brother's home in Duxbury, to enjoy the Fourth with relatives and friends. My husband and I brought 50 giant hotdogs and buns to match, others had a combination of great dishes for everyone...not to mention the more adult drinks for the grown-ups and soda for the kids. My brother has an olympic size pool in his backyard and the kids were having a ball, diving and swimming. Splashing the adults was out. Anyone who did that was immediately removed from the pool. While I was sitting at the "bar" minding my own business and drinking a cup of punch...non-alcoholic...I was stung by a bee. Of all the people there, the bee made a direct dive toward me. Wouldn't you know it. Last year I was the only one who tripped over his newly inlaid patio and hit my head on the red bricks. Everyone thought I had really knocked myself out. But I have a hard head and all turned out well. Can't wait to see what happens next year. Well that's it for now, have to get back to the tour blog.

Virtual Book Tour

Today was the first day of my virtual book tour. Don't know how it's going to turn out, but the people, who are conducting this tour, PumpUpYourBooks, are doing a great job getting interviews for the tour. What I am hoping for is that people who drop by will find my book interesting enough to want to read it, and the first and third books as well.

Have to get back to the blog I'm at today. Will post again later. Thank you!

New Release - The Gatekeeper's Realm-Book 2-Legacy Series

Hi, Everyone!

I would like to announce to the group that the second novel in the Legacy Series, the Gatekeeper's Realm has been released in print by Write Words, Inc., Cambridge Books and is now up on Amazon.com. Haven't received my copy yet, but looking forward to holding it in my hands.

More good news: I just received a great review from Once Upon A Romance for the third book in the series, Adam's Point., which, according to my publisher, will be released in print after the Sarah's Landing Series.

Here's a preview of the review:

A brooding apparition hangs over the House on The Bluff on Adam’s Point. People are missing and the spirit that has taken control of the house isn’t about to give them up easily. While Ethan and Abigail are used to dealing with the vagaries of their house and the usual spirits that inhabit it, they have no idea how to deal with this new spirit who seems to be holding the house and its occupants hostage.

As the house both attracts and repels the inhabitants, Ethan, Abigail and their guests begin their search for their missing friends within. As they search the mystery surrounding the house starts to unwind as portals into other worlds open up. Can they survive long enough to save those who are trapped?
