Enormous challenge!!

I have finished the current revisions for two of the books from my series, Celeste, and Beth, Women of the Drifting Anchor Ranch.  Angela is almost ready.  So currently I am posting stories about Angela.  It is interesting to explore her life before she came to the Drifting Anchor Ranch.

I have my very first book signing on April 12, at Aunt Addy's Country Home on Main Street in Farmington, Utah.  I'm ever so excited.  It will be from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

I love to write.  I actually wake up every single morning thinking, what thoughts can I express today?  I also think, is there something I can say in my writing that can make a difference for good in another person's life?

As you read my books you will see that there are some much less than pleasant topics that I have connected with.  Sexual slavery, and human bondage, have always been a part of this world.  The frightening thing is that those horrors are more common today than ever before!  Did I hear someone say, "It doesn't happen in America!"  I beg to differ.

In America, right now as I type these words there are people paid to troll the streets of our towns looking for small children unattended by adults.  Please people, let your children play in the BACK YARD...not the front yard.  Or go outside with them.  I drove past a home the other day on a busy road.  Two young children were outside playing.  The oldest was probably 6 or 7 and the youngest about 3.  It terrified me how easy it would be to grab one or both of them, take off, and nobody would know where they had gone!

I don't advocate that anyone live their life in fear.  Instead I advocate that we are reasoning in our parenting.  Don't take unnecessary chances!  Teach your children to be mindfully aware of their surroundings.  Teach them faith...in family, in God (however, you choose to perceive a Creator), and faith in the power and purpose of life.

If my little novels can reach even ONE PERSON and make a difference oh how grateful I will be.  Thanks for reading my writings, both in my blogs, and novels.  My other blog is objoyful.blogspot.com  That blog is about positive ideas, stories about life, and all kinds of other things.  Again thanks for your reading!
