Dear Friends,
~ Ocean on Kindle ~ if you have a Kindle and would like to download an anthology of some of my writing, either keyword "Ocean lesbian" or click here: My Precious Sweetness. Tell your friends! By the way <insert shameless plug here> If you've read and like my writing, please go to Amazon's Kindle and leave a positive comment. It REALLY helps with sales! (Thanks!)
I've finally finished the sequel to Shattering Rainbows . It's called Taming the Thunder and it, along with the re-edited first book should be out this year! I'll keep you posted.
Thank you to everyone who has emailed words of encouragement or asked where they can buy my book. I hope you like it!
I have been pounding away at the keyboard, so either check here periodically for details, or email my publisher and let them know you're "hungry for more Ocean" <wink>. They'll put you on the list to be notified when the new books come out. Bluefeatherbooks.com
By the way, the ladies at Blue Feather Books have been amazingly, wonderfully patient with me as I wrestle with real-life and have put writing on the back burner. I thank them from the bottom of my soul for that. You can thank them too by buying some of their fabulous books!
Also, I have another manuscript entitled Diary of a Strangler, a main-stream, psychological thriller fiction story about the Boston Strangler, that is up for grabs if anyone knows a publisher that prints that sort of genre.
If you haven't checked out some of my new words yet, please click on the "New Stuff 2010" above - there are 2 pages of short poems, some are new some are old but have never been posted. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Thank you for all the wonderful emails. I love hearing from ladies who tell me that they are planning a romantic night with their sweethearts and that it includes reading some of my work. That makes my day!
(in fact it kinda makes me feel like a lesbian Delilah - lol)
Don't be shy... sign the guest book and send a link to your friends.
