October is Starting out with a Bang!

I've been waiting on pins and needles to find out the winners in the Seventh Annual Literary Harvest Writing Contest sponsored by Central Oregon Writers Guild. When I received an email that said I was one of them, I did my happy dance (kind of a twist, hip hop, tango mix--really dorky). I'll be reading my entry, along with the other winners, at a Guild sponsored event on October 14. The info can be found in a link on my "About Me/Calendar" page.

The next great thing that happened:  Hampton Reviews gave Fawn, Book Two in the Shapeling Trilogy, a 5-star review. The reviewer (Fallawolf) said some very nice things. Here's what she said about the ending of the story: Fawn is a fantastic story with a beautiful ending that brought tears to my eyes.

It made me want to cry knowing that someone else enjoyed the ending as much as I did. As for Book Three: Davide: Prince, I'm well into the writing and lovin' these characters. They've been whispering their story for weeks and I'm writing it as fast as I can.

Next month I go to the Book Fair in Central Point, Oregon to sell and sign books. This is a first for me.
