I have been very busy lately getting ready for my latest novel, TO BE QUEEN, to be released. Tomorrow is the day, and I am taking a moment to be grateful.<\/p>\n

All of you writers know how hard it is to get words on paper…and then the process of finding an agent and making a novel shine while working with an editor are paths that contain their own difficulties and rewards. But then the day finally comes when the book will hit the shelves.<\/p>\n

I have finally reached that day with TO BE QUEEN, and I am going to savor it.<\/p>\n
