Check out my books on Amazon.com for temporary price reductions...

Hey Y'all,
This is the link to my books on Amazon.com. If you have read any of them I would love for you to submit a review. I would greatly appreciate it.

On August 19, Legacy of Love, a personal memoir of my mother's last year as she battled with cancer and anecdotes from myself and her other daughters, will have a price reduction for 5 days.



And beginning tomorrow, August 13, 2016, the Kindle Edition of One Perfect Now, a story of a woman losing her mom but finding her faith and herself, will be free for download Saturday and Sunday.
                         



                        "One Perfect Now is the story of Sandy Weston’s journey through incredible love and unbearable loss. She embarks on a journey she never wanted to take and along her journey she finds the identity she thought she lost, the strength she hadn’t realized she had, and the courage to walk into the future she always wanted"



Again, any reviews would be appreciated. Even if you don't love it, your opinion matters a great deal, especially as I am about to take my Aunt Millie Goodman's advice and begin a sequel to One Perfect Now, focusing on Sandy's brother and their relationship.


As always, peace to you all.

Times, They are a Changing

So, clearly I have lost the "30 Day Writing Challenge". No excuses. We make time for what is important and there are family issues that far outweighed my need to write.

Still, if I worked for a traditional employer I would likely not haven taken off whole days for the circumstances so I am making changes that will clearly mark my writing time and business. Not an easy thing for a "work from home" professional. Especially when that professional is a woman, and a mom. Not that men who work from home don't face the same dilemmas of time management, but it seems most women feel more of a pull to make sure the house and the children are in order. Maybe it is just me though; I have been told I'm a bit of an odd duck. 



Now that my children are, for the most part grown, I feel that the season of "mommy hood" is coming to a close and I can focus more on my career and the parts of me that I put on hold in order to nurture and raise up my children. That was a choice I willingly made with my husband for our family a long time ago, but much has changed and I'm ready, even excited to raise the level of priority that I give to my writing passion and business.



Do you have any suggestions? What has worked for you? Please share all tips, tricks, and ideas that may be helpful to me or any other reader. We would all appreciate it. Thanks y'all. 

Peace from TheWritingMommy
