I released my newest contemporary romance and that was just as exciting as the day I released Return of the Rose over a year ago. I am working on the third book in the Lizzy Gardner series and loving it. I am also half way through a third contemporary romance, but that book will have to wait its turn.

The BEST part of my indie author journey has been connecting with readers. What an amazing high that is!

Thanks to all who have taken the time to read one of my books, write a review, comment on my blog, offer congrats, or email me to tell me I have a new fan.

No matter what YOUR dreams are, don't let anyone tell you that you can't succeed. If you are self-publishing a book and you are not seeing the sales that you were hoping for, try not to dwell on low sales. Keep writing, keep writing, keep writing. And you MUST believe in yourself. As writers, there are too many factors that we have no control over as to whether our books will sell well, or not. Worrying about the ups and downs will only make you crazy. Just keep writing.

Don't be afraid to try new things. Stay positive.

YOU CAN DO IT!
