Don't forget to sign up for your chance to win 1 of 4 copies of my novel, "The Girl in the Mirror," for which I won the Georgia Author of the Year award in Sci-Fi/Fantasy. Good luck!

I'm thrilled to report that the Georgia Writers Association presented me with a Georgia Author of the Year award in the Science Fiction / Fantasy category for my novel "The Girl in the Mirror." I feel so very honored and humbled.

Enter to win 1 of 4 copies of my novel, The Girl in the Mirror. It makes a great beach read! I wish everyone could win a copy, but if you don't win, give the book a try.

A new giveaway of 4 copies of "The Girl in the Mirror" started yesterday and will run until midnight, May 30 (Memorial Day). Head to my Goodreads book page or to the Giveaway site to register! This book makes a great beach read for the months to come!

"The Girl in the Mirror" continues to circulate in a federal prison--all male, many are college-educated. My inmate friend sent me new statistics: 38 of the 44 people who have read it have liked it. The other 6 were "scared" by the near-death experience (NDE) and parallel world elements. Some of them said the concepts were "against their religion."

I'm pleased with the results. I knew that the NDE to a parallel world (and not to heaven, as we conceptualize it) would be disturbing to some people. But for me, part of the fun of writing the book was that it might encourage people to think differently, to imagine post-death possibilities other than traditional heaven vs. nothingness.

I'll keep posting updates as I get them from the prison.

Please join me and the other Book Widows (Rona Simmons, Susan Jimison, Valerie Joan Connors) for a Q&A on Facebook this Thurs. from 10 a.m. through Fri. 5 p.m. We'll talk about who the Book Widows are, about our individual journeys as authors, and about anything else. Stop by to say hi! I'd love to chat! Here's the link:
