The Moral Premise-in a bag

Tweet

I'm giving a talk tomorrow at the

Omaha Heartland Writer's Group.

And by 'giving a talk' I mean stuttering and shaking before other humans as I impart to them things THEY ALREADY KNOW!

Not a fan.

I prefer to write books.

But still, they asked and I fell for it.

I'm giving a lesson about

 The Moral Premise-Harnessing Vice and Virtue for Box Office Success

 by Dr. Stanley Williams.

So I'm distracting my writer friends from my incompetence by giving away a gift bag containing a copy of

The Moral Premise

And Chocolate

A Bride for All Seasons Available for Preorder

Tweet

Today is the first I've seen it.

A BRIDE FOR ALL SEASONS

Preorder on Amazon

A novella collection with

Margaret Brownley, Robin Lee Hatcher, Debra Clopton and Mary Connealy (me!)

It's available now for preorder and releases next JUNE.

1800s mail-order bride catalogs facilitated many happy marriages. Here are the stories of four couples who owe their wedded bliss to creative editing by The Hitching Post publisher.

“And Then Came Spring”—Margaret Brownley
Sheriff Tom Garrett wants vengeance on his brother's murderers, but he must think of his orphaned nephew. Then Mary-Jo shows up, swearing she married Tom’s brother by proxy and he’d neglected to mention a son.
“An Ever-After Summer”—Debra Clopton
Widower Matt McConnell wrote his ad with no room for misunderstanding—Bible believers need not apply. But Bible-thumping Ellie shows up on his doorstep. Matt’s so desperate for her help that he accepts.
“Autumn’s Angel”—Robin Lee Hatcher
Luvena Abbott is a singing sensation in New York. But as guardian to her brother’s children, she has few options to provide a home. Clay Birch won an abandoned theater in a poker game. The Hitching Post editor thinks they'll make a perfect match.
“Winter Wedding Bells”—Mary Connealy
David Laramie is looking for a woman to care for his children. In exchange he’ll make her financially comfortable for life. But no woman wants to marry a dying man. Then Megan responds to his ad. It seems his “edited” letter contained no mention of him dying.
