Hello my happy & thankful reader friends!

I hope you all have much to celebrate and be thankful for this day and this season.

I am thankful for you. 🧡

Let me tell you why in case it's not obvious. You read my books and that means everything. As much as I enjoy writing and reading my own stories, they are meant to be shared. A writer without readers is like a cook making a big Thanksgiving meal with no one to eat it. Very sad.

But not me--I'm happy because you read my stories.

And that's not all. Writing is lonely--aside from the characters in my head--I don't see or interact with people day-to-day. And so reaching out to you, like with this newsletter, is important, like calling a friend--only writing--because that's what I do.

Your support, your emails, your reviews, your being there, is such a comforting and wonderful thing and I do not ever want to take it for granted.

I'm very grateful to you for being here, for reading this newsletter whether i hear back or not. But I promise you, if you send me a note, I WILL respond! Happily and enthusiastically!

If you want anything from me in this newsletter--more news, more info on future books, more humor, more excerpts, less of anything--pretty please let me know. I want to please you, give you something to enjoy.

Today I'll share with you a look at my books for 2022. So far. Let me know what you think.

I truly hope you 🍗 have much to be thankful for this year and into the future.

Warmest Regards,
