Family History Workbook

Here's one of my new books that is being published at Amazon.com tomorrow. With the recent passing of my mother, it got me thinking about how little I know about my family's past. Use it not only to keep records of what you know about your past, but for YOU to write in for your family's future generations to know about you.

One more day till The Missing Mermaid

I've uploaded the book to Amazon's Kindle publishing program.  Says it could take up to 72 hours to be available for purchase, so let's all mark our calendars.  However, their online-previewer program (so I can see what it will look like on a kindle or other tablet) wasn't working, so if you see any odd formatting etc, please let me know as soon as possible so I can work with Amazon to fix it.

Thanks!

p.s. Created a different cover.  Hope you like this one!

Countdown to the release of The Missing Mermaid

The prelude of my romantic suspense anthology of underwater adventures is due to be released on Amazon.com in two days! 

Please note on your calendar to
check out THE MISSING MERMAID!

Countdown to Missing Mermaid!

It's only three days now until the release of the romantic suspense short story, The Missing Mermaid.

Stay tuned!

Mermaids everywhere!

I am diligently working to get my mermaid anthology finished and publishable.  So far, I have adventures in, of course, Atlantis, but also at a mer-people collective in the Arctic Circle and one group can even talk with sharks and seals!

This group of short stories has been a blast to plot and visualize. 

"The Missing Mermaid" is the first short story, which I will release next week while I'm finishing stories 2 through 6.

Enough delays!

My mother would have turned 88 today, if she had lived just a few short more weeks.  It got me thinking... life is too short.  I could be gone next week, then what would my beautiful special needs son do? Who would take care of him? Provide for him? Love him?

Well, I hope he always feels my love (even when I'm gone) but I can do something to help provide for him now. 

So I am dedicating myself to getting back to writing.  I truly have missed it... the plotting and planning and organizing ... it sets me on fire!  My problem is figuring out which of the many books I've started to finish and publish first.

Hmmm...

mermaid anthology?

grim reaper novella?

set of wiccan horror short stories?

Maybe go with  non-fiction?

Aw, decisions decisions!

Yet another delay

I honestly started back on my writing, while preparing to get the house ready to sell and monitoring my son's epilepsy ... then it happened.  Another lump discovered in my every-6-months-mammogram.  Biopsy done the next week, news delivered 2 days later, and now surgery is scheduled for next week. It's only been 15 months since my last breast cancer surgery.

Thank you all for your patience, understanding and support.

Puzzling over a title

As I worked on my "instant meals" / "healthy homemade MREs" book this week, I realized I am still very unsure as to what title to use. The companion blog is "homemade healthy MREs" ( http://homemadehealthymres.blogspot.com/ ) but what will people most readily respond to?

So ... here are my options:

1. Homemade Healthy MREs

2. Instant Meals from Dried Foods

3. Instant Meals in Jars

4. Homemade MRE - Just Add Water


Or a combination thereof.

Thoughts?

Since my goal is to get this published by the end of November, I need to order the cover soon.  Can't do that if I'm still unsure about what title to use!

AND ... for the photo for the cover, should I use a pic of my rows of canning jars that hold my dehydrated ingredients, or maybe a plate with lots of powdered or dehydrated ingredients on it.

Author Vikki Lawrence is back working!

Dear readers:

After a horrible couple of years dealing with liver disease, breast cancer, my almost-21-year-old's epic return of epilepsy, and lots of other things, I'm back to writing.

I will try to update this blog on a more regular basis.

Thank you for your patience and continued support.
