Okay, so I have been browsing book covers on Amazon relating to dogs because I know that my publisher will soon send me the art fact sheet to fill out for the military war dog series. I’ve got a few that I like, that have dogs on them but aren’t cutesy (can’t go “cute” because my books are still military thrillers with intense action to fit my RAPID-FIRE FICTION brand. What is your favorite dog book cover? Please help me prepare my list! So, the cover for FREEDOM IN THE AIR is by far my favorite. I’m still not a fan of having a person’s face so prominent on the cover, but this shows you that this isn’t just a …

So, I’ve been thinking lately that due to childhood abuses, I’ve pretty much been the type of person who just tucks their head and forges onward in the storm. I feel deeply, but I also bury deeply. As a child, the gift to forget hurts and painful experiences kept me sane and mentally intact. LOL But now…as a mom…a wife…a child of God…want to FEEL. In the last few months, I’ve come to embrace my sensitive side. It’s a gift. I can easily identify and imagine what others think/feel. Empathetic. Taht’s me. But sometimes, the depth of feelings overwhelms me, and I shut down. Get to where I can’t take it anymore. So, I again…duck/cover and keep moving. But that’s …

Well, it’s the end of March, and I promised to announce the winner of the Mission:Julia launch promotion for Dead Reckoning. The winner will receive an autographed copy of Dead Reckoning, an iPod Nano, and trinkets from India!! The winner is….LYNN DEAN!!! Congratulations, Lynn! THANK YOU for participating in the mission to save Julia Jaxon, Reece’s older sister. And thank you for saving me. I really like being here, having friends, and breathing–that’s a good thing. LOL

There’s been a glitch. Reece contacted me and said they seem to have lost her trail. Part of the problem was the video he’d sent me. The low quality, low visibility and rough audio (no doubt done to protect his identity and Shiloh’s) forced many on the mission to abandon the hope finding Julia. Reece has forwarded me the transcript from the video. I can only hope we aren’t too late. SHILOH: Hey – we’re at the house. Julia’s not here but we can tell she was. She left a clue behind. But . . . it’s not making sense. I think we’re close though. Might not have to kill Ronie after all. REECE: Easy, Shi. SHILOH: Fans of Ronie? …
