The Calm Before Thanksgiving: Why Books Are the Best Escape This Week
Thanksgiving week always starts quietly…and then the chaos wakes up. Whether you're prepping the house, finishing work deadlines, or trying not to burn the mac and cheese, this week can stretch your brain thin. Before the noise hits, I want to offer a calm escape—a journey off Earth. If you’re craving a story that gives you a soft landing before the holiday rush, let me introduce Love In Space.

Thanksgiving prep has officially begun… which means we ALL deserve a tiny escape.

So here’s yours:

Love In Space is my sweet sci-fi romance where singles leave Earth to start over on a brand-new planet.

You know the coolest part about writing, one day someone is going to love your characters as much as you do.

Yes that thought makes me cry.

When my daughter bought a house, we moved Thanksgiving to her house. I usually spend the night and we get up early and cook together.

I love this new tradition.

Do you go to someone’s home or stay home for thanksgiving?

My calendar is open for 2026 is open. Let’s work together.

The holidays are tough times for people. Especially for those who have lost love ones.

Thanksgivings brings up memories of my mom, dad, uncles, aunts and sisters.

It’s hard but I think of the happy times, I play my mom’s favorite music - James Brown and Neil Diamond and I feel a little better.

Celebrating 1,000 Reads: The Motivation I Didn’t Know I Needed
This week I reached 1000 page reads on Love In Space. One of the things I loved about Kindle Vella was being able to see when someone read my story. You could literally watch readers move from chapter to chapter. And for some reason, that was comforting. When a reader buys your book, you don’t really know if they ever read it—unless they leave a review or reach out.

I want to create a listing of the top 10 books a writer should have in their library. What do you recommend? (craft, business, marketing)
November 19, 2025 at 5:47 PM
Most new authors are eager to sell their books and haven’t researched how to promote to readers so I thought I’d offer some of my social media etiquette I share with my clients.

1. The reader owes you nothing. Once they purchase your book they decide what to do next, not you.

I’m working on my plan. I want to do more podcasts.

Watching this movie. One of my favorite groups when I was a teen and early 20s.

I finally got to see her live in 2010. She was still amazing.

I’m enjoining the story. The soundtrack to my life.

Which one of their songs is your favorite?

Yesterday the furlough ended.

I was happy to return to work. I did a lot of thinking about my future while on furlough. I’m going to stick to my four year plan and get things in order for my retirement.
