After many years of reading children’s books to her daughter and secretly writing some of her own, Donalyn Kent has finally succumbed to her passion. Painting for Honey Bees is Donalyn's debut picture book. She loves to write entertaining stories for children that are based on true events and circumstances. Her tales not only educate young minds, but are thought provoking for adults as well. Donalyn celebrates the importance of awareness, enthusiasm and the value of learning with each story written. Her goal for every book read is that all readers laugh, learn and love.

Not to mention, I'm interested in her particular romantic suspense writing in comparison to other writers of that genre. Other books on my summer reading list include some older beach-related novels by Nora Roberts, Elin Hilderbrand and Mary Kay Andrews. My bookshelves are full of "unread" best-sellers. So, my goal this summer is to read at least five. Wish me luck! Father Time isn't very forth-giving, at times.(less)

FAPA Expo - August 2017

Sharing some kudos and thanks...I had the pleasure of attending the FAPA (Florida Authors & Publishers Assoc.) Expo in hot, hot, hot Orlando! It was great! No pool time, but I sure learned a lot. Thank you FAPA for all that encouragement and insightful knowledge. Awesome speakers, by the way.
