The Season's Best!

As the Vowellans of Heaven's Wait celebrate their own other-worldly Hallie-Day, they wish to extend to you and yours the best of the season.

RJ'S STORY: A Fond Memory

When I started writing about Heaven's Wait, I built the character of RJ based on my dad. Here, he speaks of his "Ma", my grandmother. I wish I had known her. I was only 1 when she passed on.

Happy Saturday! What has HW's Wit Fig Wig learned from the other-worldly wistas?

Here's a snippet from one of my oddball book characters. The Vowellans often surprise me with bits of wisdom.

Getting Closer to Publication

I'm slowly working my way toward uploading INNOCENTS and an updated version of RJ'S STORY for publication as both E-books and paperbacks. This weekend, I'm concentrating on front and back matter for my books: title page, dedication, copyright, author photo and bio, and pages that link the books and provide info for purchase. All of the components contribute to a marketable product, so I'm trying to be meticulous with this process. I love detail, so I'm enjoying the project.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Vowellans!

Today, we're feasting on Net Ken hen stew with koolibarba chips, nanaberry pudding, and PLOM fruit tarts with wista cream. How about you?
