Babysteppin’ Toward a Dream

I’ve known what I wanted to be since I was in fourth grade. And never, in all that time since, have I even considered changing my mind…   

Here is a look at the start of my dream.  It was born on a rainy day while playing at a friend’s house. She brought white paper to the kitchen table and said, “let’s make books.” I was hooked. (If you click on the picture, you can see it a little better)

Then, in eighth grade, my teacher asked us to draw a picture of ourself doing whatever it is we wanted to do for a living. Other than the fact I’m doing it longhand, I’m betting I’m one of the only ones actually doing it…   

Which brings me to this past week–a week I have to liken to being a whole lot like Christmas for a little girl with a dream…        

First, there was a sneak look at the third installment in the Southern Sewing Circle Mystery Series (set to debut in October). I absolutely ADORE this cover…

Second, came a sneak look at my second-ever romance novel (click on the cover for a better look)…

The photographer couldn’t have done a better job with this cover! It’s exactly how I pictured the main characters. This book, A Mom For Callie, will go on sale July 12th! 

And last, but certainly not least, came the Fed Ex man with two hot-off-the-press copies of my latest (# 2) Southern Sewing Circle Mystery, DEATH THREADS (which will hit bookstores nationwide on May 4th)!!!!

I am SO excited for this book to come out! It’s fun, fun, fun!

The morale of the story? If you want it bad enough, you can make it happen!
