Vacation Time

Mt. Shasta with spaceship cloud I recently came back from a retreat on Mt. Shasta, California, led by my friend singer and songwriter, Jennifer Ruth Russell. Fourteen of us sang, meditated, hiked, ate organic food, and listened to talks by Asara Adams and Bryan Tilghman.

Bryan’s book is one of the best about Telos and connecting with Adama. Click here. He took us on a hike and gave us information we hadn’t read in his book.

Asara AdamsJennifer invited Asara to our cabins to be available for any questions we had about Mt. Shasta. We shared a delicious meal with Asara and her fiancee that was made by a local caterer.

I had never been on a retreat before and Jennifer made this one outstanding. She recently published a book, click here.

I’ll see you all again.

Day Two of Success Week

 

 

When Donna Kozic started the success community book project, I immediately knew what to write about for a 200 maximum word-count essay.

Choices!

To me, success is the outcome of choices, whether big ones or small, right ones or not so right ones, they all immediately or eventually lead to success.

The biggest turning points for me happened when I moved from one place to another.  I’ve lived in seventeen homes and with each move, I had to leave my comfort zone. Each move was a big decision, and each move ended up being a success.

My essay called “Chosen Changes” is published in Success is Yours!, an eBook available on Amazon.

Thursday, May 10th is our launch and we’d appreciate if you’d purchase it on that date for $.99. The more people who get it on the 10th,  the closer we are to it being an Amazon best seller. Don’t worry, I’ll remind you.

If you had had the opportunity to submit a story to Donna’s community project, what success of yours would it be about?

How do you define success?

Written Across the Genres $2.99 Price Increases in One More Day.

Cover spread for Written Across the GenresArleen Eagling wrote a Mainstream Fiction story called “Valuable” in Written Across the Genres. Here is an excerpt:

“Now that Robert saw her from the side, he was sure the woman had been there before. She looked different, though. Maybe all the black on her was distracting, or maybe she’d lost weight or something. He took his place behind the register.”

You can read the story to find out who this woman is and why she’s in the store. (Hint, it’s not to buy something.)

I compiled this anthology to give readers experiences in reading genres they normally wouldn’t choose. If you are a mystery reader for instance, you will find a mysterious character in this story, which could help you to consider reading mainstream fiction in the future.

The KDP special changes every two days. The price for my eBook of $2.99 will increase to $3.99 in one more day. Click here to purchase.
