Fantastic News!

Time for a happy dance. I just received word that I've been nominated for Author of the Year at Champagne Books. Woohoo! I am honored and humbled, because I know the caliber of writing that is produced by my fellow authors at Champagne.

READERS BEWARE

READERS BEWARE. I have my books and my name set for Google Alerts. I regularly receive alerts that one or more of my books is available for Free Download. There are pirate sites out there that steal authors' work and offer it for free or for a nominal fee. There are other sites out there that use this as a lure to get you to click on a link. They are phishing sites and are trying to get into your computer. Please be aware that my books are not listed for FREE anywhere. I wish I could give them to readers, but this is, after all, a business. If you see advertised sites that are offering my books for free or that are asking you to 'just click on this link' to download a free copy--please don't do it. If it's a piracy site, you are now helping them steal my work. If it's a phishing site, you are putting your own computer at risk. I price my books as reasonably as I possibly can to make them affordable for readers. I ask you to please respect that and leave these thieves to their own devices. You know the saying, "If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is." When I reduce book prices or if I can ever offer something for free, I will announce for you. Thanks so much.
