A pleasure. Your book’s premise is fascinating. Good luck.

An adoptee and her dying birth mother trace their bloodline through six centuries of women who faced impossible choices. Now she faces hers: keep demanding answers about her father and lose her mother, or let the truth go to the grave. #WritingCommunity #AmQuerying #HistoricalFiction #WomensFiction

Love how people talk about β€œshameless self-promotion.” Does the word β€œmarketing” ring a bell? 🀣

Opinion: In Praise and Defense of Womanhood (for guysΒ only) No, I have not lost a bet, nor is someone squeezing my boys for ransom. There comes a time in everyone’s life when they feel compelled to tell the truth, no matter what. In this case, the subject is women. A final caveat: this is to be read by men only. If you are a person of the female persuasion, put this down immediately, if not sooner. Some of you guys may think you know where I’m going with this. If so, bear with me on the parts where you are right and be open to the truth for once in your life on the parts that tear your guts apart and make you cringe.

Those who read β€œLetters from Blitz” may recall how Blitz’s BFF, Lars, had been waiting for him at the Rainbow Bridge. Here they are on Earth before they resumed their friendship in the magical place. mybook.to/LettersFromB...

Sometimes I feel awfully guilty about having written about only one of my five Weimaraners. I'm making amends. My next book about a boy and his dog features this guy, using his pre-adoption name. Can you guess Trueno's original name? dansantosbooks.com

This is Blitz, the friend about whom I wrote "Letters from Blitz." It's been years, but our love is timeless. I miss him so much.

My friend Christopher Greyson wrote a new fantastic murder mystery. Read for free at Kindle Unlimited.

Blitz crosses the Rainbow Bridge, sad and confused, missing his humans, and discovers a great injustice against those who had no earthly families. With typical Weimaraner daring, he talks the heavenly powers into upholding compassion at the Rainbow Bridge. 4.7 Stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ mybook.to/LettersFromB...

Grammarly catches the difference in mine when I make the same mistake. If you have it, check the settings and choose creative writing. Good luck!

Book Review: β€œThe Golem of Rhodes” by JonathanΒ Harries Those of you who have read my other reviews of Jonathan Harries’ work will not be surprised when I say that I loved β€œThe Golem of Rhodes.” I have loved all his other books as well. In fact, I usually read his latest book when I need to read something well written that defies fiction fads. It’s like swallowing two spoonfuls of honey to calm a persistent cough; you have known honey’s curative effects all your life and wonder why it took you so long to take it. His β€œTales of the Sica” series tells the story of how his family has plied the murder trade for generations with a β€œsica,” a curved dagger used by ancient Illyrians, Thracians, and Dacians, strapped to the assassin’s ankle.

Be glad. They have an awesome responsibility. In the Army we used to say it is better to sweat in training than to bleed in the battlefield.

Someone read 13 pages of one of my books and @awscloud.bsky.social KU is considering paying me a nickel. That would be an improvement over the 1 penny they paid for over 1000 pages. Yep, authoring in Amazon is not for the faint of heart. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

The eternal problem. We’ve raised them to be self-sufficient and close to the one person who might be around when we go. But we forgot to add β€œno rehearsals.” 😳

Fiction is not for the β€œwishy-washy.” It confuses the reader. Write β€œsome people like pumpkin spice and some do not.” Don’t write β€œpumpkin spice is not without controversy.” The author is the reader’s guide. Don’t let them down.
