Hello, Friday Fiction Friends! I’m happy to announce that Smoking Flax is four months old. Launching this book has been a fun ride, but I’ve not been able to promote it as much in public due to problems with my voice from a lingering illness. I hope to be able to meet some of y’all at upcoming conferences, festivals, and author events.

Below, I’ve shared one of the biggest blessings I’ve received since writing Smoking Flax. My very favorite author, James L. Rubart, read and endorsed my YA novel. And he liked it. Wow. I’m still in awe every time I read this. So, take a moment to go to Amazon and order your own copy. And maybe order one for a friend. It’s the best way to support an author.

Thanks so much!
