After much suffering, I have my website the way that I want it to be (I think!) but I need your help. My goal is to have people go on there to see what I'm working on, to ask me questions, to make comments, to complain, or to say how much they like my writing. In my "News" section, there are announcements of upcoming giveaways and anything else that may be going on; it is in the "Post" section that I share my thoughts and what is happening with my writing. The "About Me" page is just that--I give you some background of who I am. And there's a "Contact" page. But there are also places for your comments and I am looking forward to any that you have.
I hope you will visit soon. And share the information with your friends.
Watch for two giveaways next week and see if you can win one or both of my books. Good luck!

I'm going to have daily postings about my writing journey and challenges that I've encountered. I'll share with you the journey from beginning to end--classes that I took, techniques that have helped me along the way, self-publishing and promoting.

See you there.

When I retired as a school social worker four and a half years ago, I took some on-line writing classes with the University of Wisconsin. I decided that with my clinical background, I’d write stories of hope and inspiration, along with providing a good story for my readers. My first novelette, “Envelopes of Hope,” was inspired by a family member who had struggled for years with a drug problem. Finally entering rehab, she wrote a letter thanking me for not giving up on her. The story is about a young girl who, with the support of her family, finds her way out of the darkness of the world she had fallen victim to. The story is meant to give hope and inspiration to those who have substance abuse issues and to their families who support them.
“When Shadows Linger” and “The Primrose Garden” (the sequel) are both full-length novels. The main characters are social worker/therapists who deal with family issues, substance abuse, suicide, depression, and other mental health concerns.
“My Name is Rebecca: A Novelette” (historical fiction) is a story dedicated to all who have come, and are still coming, to America for a better life. It is a story of hope, family, and culture.
Aa a special offer until November 25, I’ll gift you one of my e-books (your choice) when you buy either an e-book or paperback. Just send me an email (mirikal1210@gmail.com) letting me know that you bought one, and which one you’d like as a gift—and I’ll gift it to you right away. Please put "free book” in the subject line.

For each book that I sell during the month of December, I’ll donate $2.00 to St. Jude Research Hospital. It is a wonderful organization that does so much for children and families–you can do your part by buying a book. Along with feeling good about making a donation, you’ll have a “great” book to read, too.
