Blessings!

January 2025

​I am so happy to be blessed in this author’s journey.

Recently, I was asked to read Storytime and book signing at Knights Nook on Saturday, February 1st, 2025, in Yukon, Oklahoma at 10:30 a.m. I am looking forward to this event. (https://www.facebook.com/events/2565244750338336 )

Then, I will be a guest speaker for the Oklahoma City Christian Writers talking about the “5 P’s of a Successful Author”. This event will be at a coffee shop in Oklahoma City, OK on Saturday, February 8th, 2025.

I am also working as a volunteer two times in February for the Oklahoma City Public School Book Bus at various elementary schools.

I also was recently approved to be a guest reader at the Books By the Bay Festival in Pensacola, Florida in March 2025 to read, “Nicoli Picoli”

I will also be at an author table with another author for the day and at a separate Author Signing Tent. So, I will be busy that day, but it is a blessing that I got approved to be at the festival for the second year. 

During the festival week, I will be attending some other venues at a military base and a public library. I hope to have some school author events too which are in the works.

Oh, glad I am not there now. No, I think it would be cool. It is snowing in Florida where I grew up. Can you believe that? Snow is on the beach. In several areas around the panhandle of Florida, some cities have up to almost seven inches of snow.

The next blessing is I will be announcing soon in my blog about another adventure so you will have to wait and see for more information to come soon.

I am coordinating with my illustrators for two upcoming books that should be done by the end    of the summer and one other book that will be   worked on in the fall of 2025 hopefully with an Oklahoma publisher.

Several of my manuscripts were entered into the  Oklahoma Writers Federation, Inc. and I am still    waiting on results from the National VA Creative   Arts Festival which has not announced   the national winners yet but hopefully the results will come out soon this month.

Finally, I am trying to line up some readathon   activities for March and am signing up for one   for the Oklahoma City Public Schools read   across the district.
