Only a Few More Run-Throughs on THE HOUSE OF ANCHOR! Sexy.


Dear everyone:

Here's a silly little video for you about my writing process, ha. In reality, I am thrilled to say that I am very close to finishing THE HOUSE OF ANCHOR, my second book. Let's see...currently, I am on p. 37 of 405, revision nine. Only a few more run-throughs to go. And then comes the process of seeking the right agent and publisher. Sweet. Whatever happens with this, here's the way I see it:  setting an unbelievable, lofty goal, plugging away at it, and finishing book #2 is no small deal! Also, this thing is chock full of rich brilliance. The story is so crafty, so layered, definitely hard to resist, and fast-paced. The characters are absolutely colorful and engaging. And sexy.

I am so pleased with how this monster of a novel turned out! To me, it is like entering another world. So keep your fingers and toes crossed for me as I go forward from here. I'm sure gonna need some energy, luck, you name it! Dayum, I put in the time, endless work, many years of focusing on the craft, the schooling, the living, and on and on. So in my heart I know I've done (and am doing) my part.

And that feels rad.

Hope you are happy. Hope you feel a lot of love in your heart. I do.

Book Release #2. GRIFFIN FARM NOW ON KINDLE.

Hi there. Well, got it all set to go for you eBook lovers. Now you can purchase my book, GRIFFIN FARM, in electronic form at the link here. Damn, this publishing experience has taught me so much! Now I see how important it was for me to get this work out there, and I also feel that it was necessary for me to wade through the whole time-consuming process all by my lonesome. Sometimes I learn best by diving into the madness. And now it all feels pretty slick. In case you haven't noticed, "slick" is one of my favorite words. There's even a horse in the book named "Slick." And I once rode a real horse named Slick, and man, he was gorgeous -- a handsome, wild, black thoroughbred. At the time, I had no idea what I was doing. I just hung on, feeling the wind. Sometimes life is like that, eh?

Hang on, feel the wind.

Well, I hope some people relate to and/or learn from this book. I wholly believe that the story is engaging and so far, the most consistent comments are the following:

I can't put it down.
It's intense. I'm hooked.
Man, that chapter was a surprise.


There are a lot of levels buried in this sucker if you take a closer look, just sayin'. That's all I'll say. Enough of that. Anyway, if you haven't read the work yet, give it a try online now if you like...it's all ready to go.

Now, time to move on to my next project. I am so excited!  Onward and upward! Have a beautiful day! Hope you get a chance to check out my book!

Slick, slick, slick,
