Friday Frenzy!

Tears of the Sea releases on Monday!! 

As some of you know, this is a different sort of book than I usually write. Although it is still a romance and has an historical feeling to it, it is a fantasy about a mermaid under a curse. My hope and prayer is that this allegory of the Gospel will reach many young women and open their eyes to how much God loves them! Will you partner with me in getting this book into as many hands as possible? What a great Christmas gift for the young ladies in your life, especially those who need to be brought closer to God.  It is also a story that goes completely counter to today's culture that says there's nothing wrong with sleeping with your boyfriend. In this story, I expose the devastating consequences of cheapening yourself and giving something away that is precious and should be reserved for the commitment of marriage.  What a breath of fresh air compared to the garbage foisted upon us by today's media!

Please Click on the link to preorder your copy today!  Amazon  
I expect to have it on sale on Barnes and Noble and other sites within the week. 

NEXT FRIDAY, I hope you'll join me for a RELEASE Party!. I'm giving away a Mermaid Gift basket filled with all sorts of goodies, so please drop by and enter and also tell your friends!! 

Here's a meme created by Chaplain Debbie Mitchell to get you excited about the story!

Friday Writing Tip
Dialogue! Books could be written about dialogue. It's one of the hardest things to perfect as a writer. One of the best ways to improve writing dialogue is to spend some time studying the way people talk. Next time you're at church or at work or in some sort of social event, pay special attention to how people converse. You'll soon notice that most people don't speak in perfect sentences, but rather in clipped phrases, fragments, and short exclamations.  I've read far too many books where the characters speak perfect English sentences and it sounds stilted and unrealistic. You want your readers to read dialogue and have it sound so real they feel like they are standing next to your characters and listening to the exchange with interest.


Have a GREAT weekend!!!  Hugs!
