Congratulations to Nan M. for winning a free paperback copy of The Secret of the Hold! Your copy will be in the mail soon.

And thanks to everyone who signed up for my newsletter! Be on the lookout for an upcoming post about my first ever book tour. I’m leaving tomorrow for a ten-day trip down south to Atlanta, Birmingham, and Huntsville to promote my book and to re-connect with friends and family. It’s crazy-cold and snowy here in Michigan, so prayers are appreciated as I embark tomorrow morning for my first stop, Cincinnati. And prayer, please, for my husband who must hold down the fort and be cook, chauffeur, shopper and personal assistant to three teenage boys in my absence.

It is my great pleasure to announce the release of The Secret of the Hold, Book Two of The Soultrekker Chronicles, available here (ebook will be available on January 25th)! See what Jeff LaFerney, author of the award winning Jumper and the Clay and Tanner Thomas mystery series, has to say: “The Secret of the Hold is a must-read, follow-up fantasy with an incredible, emotional plot and a stunning ending that’ll leave you wanting more.” Thanks to everyone who encouraged me and kept asking about the second book in the series. After months of delays that were beyond my control but nevertheless important, the wait is almost over! To celebrate, I’m doing a drawing to give away one free paperback for every ten new subscribers to my newsletter! So sign up today, here on my website! Winners will be announced on January 27th. Finally, The Soultrekker Chronicles  is the perfect choice for your next book club meeting.
