First, I want to thank all of you who pre-ordered Return To Chastity. I am very appreciative of your response. We are about a week or ten days from publication. After that it takes a short time for the computer software to be adjusted to allow the distributors to order and dispatch the book. This includes Ingram, Baker and Taylor, Amazon, B&N, Waldenbooks, Borders, etc.
I reached a milestone when my publisher allowed me to participate in the design and approval of the book cover. As many of you know, large publishers normally don't give the author a say in the cover design. My small press, JADA Press, was great about the work and I am pleased with the result. Please go to the index page using the link below and take a look at it. I hope you find it appealing and representative of the tyranny of terrorism and its violence. My characters must deal with their love, revenge and terror.
I will be scheduling signing events in earnest soon. I hope to see you at one of them so that we may say hello in person. My first speaking engagement for this novel is listed on the signing schedule page, also.
In mid-November, my writing partner,Terri DuLong, and I will be presenting a three-day Writer's Retreat at Cedar Key, FL. This delightful, sleepy island is the perfect place to wind down. I will tell you more about the seminar as we approach the dates.
I hope you are all well and enjoying the closing days of summer. Take care and dare to dream.
