Hi friends and fam, Today, I’d like to apologize to you for being unplugged for a little while. Among other things, I was working on my new novel that will soon be released. It’s called REBUKE and it is the first of quite a few tales that I have set in the sleepy town of Tranquility. This story, about a preacher and his family, spans four decades and offers readers a look behind the veil. By that I mean, in this book I am giving readers a glimpse into the private lives of the quintessential neighborhood preacher and his family. |

Hi friends and fam, Today, in keeping with our theme:The Cohort Trilogy-Book I, Absolution which will soon be re-released with new ISBN numbers, new covers, and updated content I’d like to speak to you about our lead character. Well not about him exactly. I want to introduce Ronni to those of you who haven’t yet met her. This butter-yellow mouthy spirited woman happens to be Beau’s other roommate. Now I must tell you, with Ronni [RON-nee] you will either love her or hate her, there is no in between. |

Hi readers, friends and fam, I just wanted to let you know how excited I am to be able to finally offer youIniquities! It'sBook IIIin myCohort Trilogy, and believe me, just like you loved the first two, you're going to feel that way about this one. I don't mean to sound cocky. You all know that's not my way. I'm just saying... I gave this book all I had. I had help too. That I'm happy to report. My gay male friends were more than willing to give me their input. You know, to make the story real. |

Hello friends and fam, I wanted to let you know that Jessica Janna, my mom's books Seedling and Sowing are now available on Amazon Kindle! She's quite excited about it because to her this format is new -- it's electronic! Mom also admitted that like some of you she likes books to hold in her hands. So now you can make your choice. With Kindle both Seedling and Sowing are available for a ridiculously low price. So...maybe you might want to think about giving them as gifts this holiday season. |

I know I haven't said anything in a while. That's because I've been working on the third book inThe Cohort Trilogy. I did also tell you that I wasn't the greatest at blogging, and that I would do so when I could say something of interest to you. I don't want to waste your time, you know? Since many of you keep asking me where Beau's bookis, the follow-up to both Absolution and Progression, I can only say, it's coming. I love that you're interested, don't get me wrong. I can tell you too that like the first couple of novels, this one is also a ride! |

Hey, In the midst of all that I as an author and editor have got going on, I just wanted to let you know that yes, I am working on Iniquities, the third novel in The Cohort Trilogy. I wanted you to know that yes, it is going to be something! The only difference between this book and its predecessors is that it is mostly about the buff, gay male Beau. In this novel, you’ll get to peek into his closeted world and find out quite a few things. As with the prior two novels in the series, |

A dedicated reader asked about my latest fiction. My answer: It's a great, semi-traditional romance calledTURNABOUTand it is available many places, includingAmazon. It is truly adult fiction in its purest form --as is most of my work. TURNABOUT showcases a woman who happens to be involved with a pop music producer while another man won't leave her alone. It is a love story that not only involves the main couple, but also family, friends, and foes. I wrote it like this because isn't that how relationships go anyway? |
