Hi everyone, I am thrilled to share this 4-Star review of my poetry series for children, Fruit of my Labor. Rhonda Fischer from this group wrote a wonderful review, I am so excited about it - http://readersfavorite.com/review/7629

This is great!  It gets more to the point of the types of books I'm looking to edit.

Just joined this group, and I'm glad I found it! My current WIP is a YA High Fantasy novel... I'm sure you'll all here me blabbing about that one quite a bit, it's the focus of my life right now (a feeling I'm sure you're familiar with).

I'm looking forward to meeting all of you!

Hi everyone,

Please check out my new trailer for my YA debut novel Sam Cruz's Infallible Guide to Getting Girls. If it makes you smile, help get it into the hands of older teens/adults who enjoy sexy romantic comedies. Thanks so much!
