My friend Melissa Bennett’s first book will be published later this year. The cover was revealed a couple of days ago by the publisher and I’m thrilled to present it here on my blog. Isn’t it lovely?
When newly-divorced Lil finds a second chance at love, a stalker threatens to destroy her happiness, her faith, and her life.
Congratulations Mel!

I talk a bit about Ray Bradbury over on the Mid-Willamette Valley RWA blog. How fortunate the world is to have his stories!
