Releasing September 30th, 2016!

It is a story that will make you look back on your first love and wonder. Below is a tiny piece of where my mind is as I start this story….

Everyone has that one; that one that got away, or that we let slip through our fingertips. It might have been your childhood crush, or your first true love in high school or college. Maybe you knew him really well, or you only saw him at a distance and didn?t know much about him at all. Let?s stop for just a second and think, I know you?re thinking about someone right now. As soon as you read the first line of this paragraph, his face or maybe just his name skittered through the back of your thoughts.

???? Maybe you began to smile, or chuckle at a memory. Or maybe you breathed in slowly and let it out on a sigh because you wondered. You wondered if things had been different, would you, could you possibly have made it work? And if you did, where would your life be now? Who would you be now?

???? Some people might say it is wrong to wonder what your life could have been like. You should be happy with the hand that life has dealt you and keep moving forward. Personally, I see no harm in wondering. In fact, when we allow our minds to wander, we grow. We become more because we see possibilities that we might not have seen before.

???? I have known many people over the years who wish they had taken a different road, who wish that the one that got away, had stayed. They believe that the grass really is greener on the other side, and sometimes I wonder. Not about the grass being greener, mine is pretty thick and prosperous here on my side of life, but I still do wonder about that one that got away.?

For those of you who know me, you know when I write – I write fast. I fall into my stories and I get lost. My characters take over my mind, and devour my soul. I miss that.

For the last four months, I have been recovering from a bad concussion. While I can now do the normal everyday kind of things like cook, clean and play mom taxi to my 12 year old daughter, there are still a whole bunch of things that I can not do. One of them is write for any length of time. In fact, I’m averaging about 600-800 words a day. Which is nothing compared to my 12-16K a day that I used to write – or the 56K I wrote in May in just 4 days. But…. the good news is I am healing, slowly and my brain is finally beginning to kick back in on the creative side. Now if only my left eye would cooperate!

Those 600-800 words a day I write? – I use to test myself on how easily it would be to write a police report. I miss my job and I can’t wait to get back to work. Some people probably think I’m nuts for that. They would probably kill to be able to stay at home – but not me. Me, I want to get back to work. I want to get back to my hectic schedule and my 16 hour days. I honestly just want to get back to being me… It’s gonna take me a little bit longer to do – but I’m going to get there.

So, what does all this mean to my future writing? Lots…

First off, Second Shield II, as soon as I am strong enough to dig back into that story – I will. I hate that I do not have this one out for you all yet, and I swear when my strength and cunning return, I’m jumping back into this story with a vengeance to get it out to you.

Second – There is a new exciting novella that has been started and that is what I have slowly been working on to gauge my ability to push myself with writing.? I can’t tell you much about this – but soon I will.

Third – I have two plot lines that I have been jotting notes down on recently. One is about a woman with a concussion (gee… where did I get that idea?) and how in-depth this injury is compared to what people actually think. TBI’s (Traumatic Brain Injuries) are not jokes – and I intend to explain just how serious these injures are in a fictional story based on my own experience, kind of like Whether I’ll Live or Die.

The other plot line I have just starting spinning around in my mind… well… It’s about first loves. The ones we let go of – or lose and then years later we wonder about them… I already know the title of this one – It’s called Tempt Me Too and it’s named after the boat that Max owns. You can read a little about my thoughts on this book on it’s book page… Here

All in all…. I’m slowly getting better – not fast enough for my taste – but I’m getting there. Every day just a tiny bit better. I can’t wait to get back into writing again and let some of these characters come back to life. Until then – thank you for your patience!
