Thanksgiving
is fast approaching in Canada, on October 8th, and around
my house one of our traditions is to circle the table so every person can give
thanks for something(s) they are most thankful for during the year.
This
year I have plenty to be thankful for. As always, my family. My hubby, three
kids, Mom & big brother, who I admit – I worry about like a regular mother
hen no matter how old they are – and who always make every day full of love and
laughter. And each one is so supportive of my writing – my Mom passes out my
postcards that I carry in my purse to people in restaurants!!! – and make sure
I have quality writing time.
Friends
– unfortunately, a lot of my friends (in person) do not read as much as I do,
don’t always “get” that people can write a book and be published online in
ebooks but not have prints to “Show” for it.
So it makes me doubly grateful and thankful for the online community of
authors, readers, promoters and advertisers who understand the world I write in
and give a lot of support in any ways they can. I have about a dozen authors
that I can turn to on any given day and they are there with a shoulder to lean
on, even via email, I can feel their warmth, and sounding board for a WIP or to
understand a negative review.
Then
there are my publishers who I give thanks for. They took a chance on my work,
provided every avenue to get the book(s) published, polished and into the
reader’s hands. This year I’ve been blessed to have four releases with DP and
appreciate, thank everyone at the company for their support.
The
above are just a few things I’ll be saying aloud at the dinner table this year.
I know for some Thanksgiving may not
be something they are thinking about yet, but wherever you live or when you
celebrate Thanksgiving, I’d love to hear some of what you’re thankful for this
year.
It’s never too early to sit back and
appreciate everything you’re blessed with.
My
four releases with Decadent Publishing, all a part of the In the Arms of the
Law series. FYI -- WILD THUNDER releases October 2nd !!!
To
read excerpts for each book, visit my “Bookshelf Page” on my site that
will lead you to each one.
Remember,
let me know something(s) you
are thankful for this year!
