All Them Houses ... my current w.i.p.
I'm loving the rain today.
I'm reminded of the first lines in my current work in progress, All Them Houses. "And the earth is renewed with an avalanche of raindrops that skip and jump upon the patio stones before descending into the welcoming arms of the thirsty ground. I see the twirling, bouncing green branches of Maple, Oak and Willow outlined by never-ending, shadowy, grey sky. I welcome the rain as I watch it pour over all that needs sustenance and cleansing."

Sara, a Canadian Saga is free Sunday, September 6th in the Kindle Store
My first novel, Sara - a Canadian Saga, is free for your reading pleasure in the Kindle Store on Sunday, September 6th.
The time is 1916. Sara is a 10 year old girl in rural Prince Edward Island. Roy is a 10 year old boy in mining town, Nova Scotia. Through their eyes we see, feel and experience their childhood challenges. We follow them through adolescence and their turbulent teen years. We celebrate their courtship and suffer their lost innocence in the wedding ritual. They take us through the Great Depression and share with us the frustrations, dreams and challenges they face in adulthood. As parents they introduce us to their children. This story appeals to all ages because Sara and Roy hold up a mirror and ask the reader to recognize truth about the human condition for many Canadian families through difficult economic times. We witness love that does not come neatly wrapped and experience the quiet, sometimes desperate, drama of lives unfolding.

A review of Dinner At Seven by Victoria Street
I have started to read a really good book - Dinner at Seven - written by Audrey Austin. Thank you, Audrey. It is really enjoyable probably because the story-line is located in Toronto!
I would like to see more people enjoy this love story - couldn't put it down and finally went to bed at 4am!
Once again Audrey has formulated a wonderful suspense of life and love. The young lady thinks as most women that to be comfortable in a relationship is really love. When she find that she is embroiled in a passionate and all encompassing relationship, she starts to question her life and her ability to trust. A very good read.
