Thanks for connecting. I thought we were already friends, but then I realized we weren't!

Thanks, Joyce!

Laurel ... I'm just now publishing my debut young-adult, fantasy novella titled Sarana's Gift. I would be happy to send you a free, pre-publication pdf copy if you would like to read it ... and, perhaps, review it.

Tagline: Sarah has a hard decision to make. It seems like such a simple story ... but is it?

You can read more about it here:

Hope all is well with you.

Thanks, Stan!

A belated thanks for choosing me to be among your friends, Laurel-Rain. It may interest you that one of my books, "Marvin Clark—In Search of Freedom", is now a matching FREE download on Amazon Kindle. Enjoy it while you can. (A little review on Amazon wouldn't hurt either!)

Thanks, Diana...good to find "friends" from blogging.

So nice to see you here, Laurel!

thanks for accepting my friend request

You're welcome!

Laurel, thank you for the friendship.

I will definitely add your book to my list! I hope you'll check mine out, too.

Hey Laurel-Rain,

Thanks so much for becoming my friend on goodreads. I would love for you to check out my debut novel, Her Sanctuary, which is available at over 25,000 bookstore websites worldwide including amazon.com and The Book Depository and just recently, BooksonBoard.com.

As my friend, please feel free to peruse my profile and see what I'm currently working on.

Please help me spread the word by recommending it to your friends and if you are a member of a book club, perhaps you could suggest they put it on their reading list?

Being a self-published author, I AM the marketing team so any help you could give, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again!

You're so welcome!

Thanks for adding me as a friend!

No, I haven't yet acquired this book! But it's definitely on my list, and when I do read it, I will post a review.

Hi, Laurel.
Did you get a chance to read The Little Black Fish? I see that I have attracted some attention from the group members. I am looking forward to your comments considering that although the book is for children yet, the author has wonderfully inserted messages in the story which shows a path only uderstandable by advanced readers and adults (in most cases).
I see many discussions posted for different books listed in this category and they are great discussions. But none asked me this question: "How can a children's book have "political" contents and be "banned?" Please tell me what you think.
Thanks a lot,

You're welcome! It's very reassuring to see the familiar names popping up on the various sites.

Thanks for adding me as a GRs friend too. :)

In my first book, "An Accidental Life," I write about the twists and turns of our lives...Mine didn't start out with me planning to be a social worker...actually, I wanted to be a writer!

Hi Laurel...and what a clever pen name. Thanks for being a friend. I thought I would grow up to be a social worker, but life's path didn't turn in that direction. Looking back now, I still believe that's where my heart is.
Blessings,
Jeannie

I think they're considered mainstream -- literary fiction and/or women's fiction.

Hey Laurel, nice to meet you, and thanks for adding me as a friend. Are your novels considered mainstream or another genre?

You're welcome, Andrea.

Hi & thank you for being a friend.

Yes I am! It's Friday, and even though it's rainy outside, I am eagerly anticipating new changes ahead. For one -- a Kindle version of Web of Tyranny is in the works, soon to be available on Amazon.com!

I hope you are having a good day! =)

Thanks, Betty...I hope to hear your reactions to Web of Tyranny when you finish...Hugs, Rainykins

Hi, Laurelkins,

Have been thinking of you today. Hope all is well. I just read about your new GR reviews. Those books sound interesting; wish I could read them all, but haven't read ALL of yours yet. Working on your Web of Tyranny. It sure is looong, but exciting, nonetheless.

Keep up the great work.

Hugs - Betty Dravis

Thanks, Chase...What a beautiful philosophy!

Hi Laurel-Rain,

(Lovely name you know:)

And I was just reading your bio and didn't know that you were a counselor...

I thought you might like this...

Best wishes to you always
Sincerely,
Chase:)

Don't live behind the walls
That guilt built
The longer you stay
Incased in that tomb
The harder it becomes
To break free
And write a new and different story
With the pen
That is your life

Thanks for the friend-add, Aine...

Hi Laurel-rain, thanks for stopping by, its good to meet you.
Aine

Thanks, Betty...Yes, I think the female friendship thread is a common one in my books, but in "Embrace the Whirlwind," the focus is on how one abused child manages to overcome her past...And in "Chasing Stardust," the focus is really on the fantasy life of the main character. In fact, both characters in these books are actually deprived of that constant friendship factor -- the lack of an ongoing support network makes each woman's life more difficult.

Hey, RAINYday,
I see you're using one of my quotes up there with all those "famous" ones. Wow! What an honor.
You're the best, my friend.
I'm almost ready to review AN ACCIDENTAL LIFE. I really liked it a lot. You are an excellent writer. Keep up the great work.
Are all your novels about female friendship that lats through the years? Do you plan on working in other genres?
You're good at it but you'd also be good at a psychological thriller or a plain, old ordinary thriller, too.
c u later,
Betty Dravis

Thanks for the kind words. I look forward to reading many books in the weeks to come.

Thank you for the add, Laurel-rain. I hope you find many great reads. Thanks for adding my Sharon Knowles' book to your TBR list, also. Most of all, the best in your writing!
