New release! First Blog! 2020!

So 2019 was a terrible year for me. I cried a lot and didn't write a word until November.

Then I wrote book 1 of a new, small-town Montana contemporary western/second chance/secret baby mash-up type story and it just went live a few hours ago. I'm so happy - and so nervous! This is my first release for over a year and I confess I pretty much wrote what I'm currently in the mood to read.

“I was almost sixty years old by then, and comfortable-even happy- with the idea that my days of love and adventure were over. When I looked back on my life, it was with clear eyes, Yes, I had suffered. But I was wise enough by then to understand that my suffering was never a punishment, that it was just the way things turned out for me. But I hadn't just suffered. I loved, too. And I was loved. And it was a great love, one of those loves that not even most of us get to experience. When I lay my head on the pillow at night, it was truly without regret or grievance in my heart.”
Joanna Bell, Magnus

“You smile," he whispered, his voice so low I could barely hear it. "Such a beautiful smile, my love. That smile has been the light of my life, do you know it?" "Yes", I nodded chocking with emotions. "Yes, yes." "It is right that you smile. It is not many who have a love like ours. Even when you put me in the ground, you will still have our love. Until the day I see you again, you will have it.”
Joanna Bell, Magnus
