Sometimes I find it hard to believe how lucky I am. My Shadow Falls series has done so well and I am looking forward to the release of Whispers at Moonrise on October 2nd. So, yes, I am indeed lucky. Then again, success didn’t just drop in my lap. I spent many, many years writing. And while I was always writing books, I also wrote numerous articles for magazines. I am thankful for those articles, too, because they kept food on my table, but they also taught me to work on a deadline. And publishers appreciate it when you can finish your book on time. After all, they have their schedules, too. And if I hadn’t made my deadline for Whispers at Moonrise, you’d have to wait a lot longer for it.

Now as I said, I have much to be thankful for, but above all, I am fortunate to have so many dedicated readers! I thank my lucky stars for you. So, I’m going to share some of the pictures you have sent me, like this one of a fan reading Whispers at Moonrise. Some of you sent photos of you wearing my Shadow Falls t-shirts.  I love them all!  Then, there are just some fun photos, like this one displaying my Shadow Falls Street Team welcoming packet along with an adorable cat!

Thanks for sending these in. You are the best!
