This lady waits no more...

After two years of revising and editing, this "Little Lady" of a novella has finally made her debut into the world this holiday season! A spinoff novella anchored in the Pretty Princess Universe, this truly was a labor of love that was conceived during NaNoWriMo 2017. While it only took me three weeks to write this novella that November, it took about another year and a half to revise and edit. A huge part of the reason was that I had enjoyed writing the story and had connected to the characters. And since this is a holiday-themed novella, I had truly immersed myself in the holiday season all year long for nearly two years!

On an even more personal note, I've recently been "plagued" by what I deem to be the most physical challenge regarding my health to date; I won't go into any details except to say that I can't recall ever feeling so daunted in my entire life. But by the same token, I've tried to embrace this experience as one of faith, hope and trust...that all will be well. That this is yet another "bump" in the road of life that's inviting me to become more of who I am...a better, more spiritual, more loving person, daughter, sister, friend, writer, creative writing teacher, Yoga and Pilates instructor, and of course, Kitty and Doggie Auntie and animal advocate. The "World Premiere" of my latest book, A Lady in Waiting, only fuels my passion to want to write and publish more books  as I help others to achieve their own literary dreams; to continue to help my loved ones and others heal as I continue to heal myself.

I'm forever grateful to my loved ones, my family and friends, and all the beautiful furry, finned and feathered creatures and wonders of the natural world who have helped me make this dream of putting a book out into the world possible!

So it is in this Spirit of Gratitude, Comfort and Joy, that Faith, Hope and Love will prevail! Wishing you and all your loved ones a very Merry Christmas and a Joyously Healing Happy New Year!
