When I first began writing IMAGINATION, I envisioned a book which would propel readers beyond the norm and into realms where the utterly unbelievable was possible. I wanted to blow their minds! Fascinated by the physical and psychological endurance experienced by POW’s during times of war, I knew prolonged periods of isolation and injury invoked defense mechanisms of the mind. Part of this defense is to escape inside one’s own thoughts and memories. Tiniest details of imaginary worlds become…

Today I’m sharing an inside look and spotlighting the making of my historical/fantasy Royal Desires series. The trilogy is made up of A Most Unusual Princess, A Most Intriguing Temptation and A Most Unfortunate Prince.

Together, they make up an exciting series, but each story stands alone…

After weeks of planning and coordinating efforts, today is the day my books and myself are being promoted on more than twenty of the top ereader websites in the U.S. with a total subscription base of 3.5 million opt-in readers. Just a few of the biggies are :

Today, THE END TIME ( http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K08TEYA ) is being featured on multiple books sites with an audience reach of over two million readers. Needless to say, I am very psyched! Here is a list of sites on which I am being featured. All have a low Alexa ranking and are proven to generate ebook sales.

Today begins my multi-book, months-long promotion blitz. My dystopian, sci-fi THE END TIME is being featured on FKBT, ( http://fkbt.com/2016/02/23/the-end-time/ ) which has an opt-in newsletter of over 80,000 subscribers, not including its Facebook and Twitter reach.

           Out of my eleven published books, one of my favorites to write has also been my worst seller; IMAGINATION ( http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ATFC3JM ). I wrote the book a few years ago, during the most creative point in my writing career when I pumped out three full manuscripts in less than a year. As an experienced, decades-long writer, I knew that fresh manuscripts must be seasoned and then re-read several months later with a fresh…

It used to be that if you talked up a dozen or two readers about your books in a day you’d consider that a success. Scheduled book store signings would possibly bring in a few dozen more, if you were lucky. Boy, times sure have changed.

I am lucky enough to have secured not just one, but two Book of the Day sponsorship spots for two different books (DROP OUT – http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005FX0K7U on March 30th and THE END TIME –…

Hello everyone! It’s been a while since I posted and I apologize to my followers and readers for my absence. It has not been without merit. Though I have lost a percentage of my followers by not posting, I believe the end result will justify my reasons.

I have spent the last months feverishly rewriting my book descriptions and several of my books. I am in the process of updating a few new covers, too. This is in anticipation of a major promotional blitz.

I am…

A review like this one from a complete stranger makes all the hard work worth it.

Today my contemporary fiction best seller, DROP OUT is being featured on several prominent websites. Please share and tell your friends. Thanks.

This time going for #1!

I can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since I wrote ‘the end’ on a new novel. When I finished my last book, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN, I decided to heed my own advice from the book and spend more time enjoying life and the outdoors and less time isolated from the world, writing. As the theme of the book states, “enjoy each day to its fullest”.

I knew starting a new book would consume me, and since I finished AS IT IS IN HEAVEN at the beginning of spring, I didn’t want to lose a…

It’s been a while since I posted my thoughts. Like many writers often do, I decided to take a break from marketing and social networking and concentrate on editing and revising my books. For the last three months, I have done nothing but re-read and tweak my stories until every single page entices the reader to want more.

I finished the revisions, let them stew and mature for a while, and then read them again, just to be certain they are ready for the world market. I believe…

I want everyone to know about Roadrunner Books. It is both my home base, and bookstore. You can also find an offering of many Free Books, and…

It was very exciting last week when my contemporary suspense novel, DROP OUT hit #5 on the paid Amazon best seller list. I was thrilled to have Nicholas Sparks as my #4 competitor. How I got to this list is no secret. I booked promotional spots on high-traffic websites and spent the days leading up to the spots marketing and promoting my a*s off. I stayed at that #5 position for an entire 36 hours before slowly slipping back into the 100’s; about where I am now.

Did I ever in…

So as my promotional blitz winds down and sales are beginning to slow to normal, I got all the way to #5 in the country right behind #4 Nicholas Sparks. Not bad.

In my quest to have the #1 downloaded paid book in America, Day 2 of my two day promotional blitz for my previous bestseller DROP OUT finds me on these major ebook sites.
