Season’s Greetings and thank you to readers, blog and contest participants and reviewers.

First Born Novel

First Born Novel

Season’s Greetings and thank you so very much.

What a wonderful twelve months this has been for my writing career. On December 24th, 2011, Moving On, A Prairie Romance http://www.amazon.com/Moving-On-Prairie-Romance-ebook/dp/B006SHAWES was published by XoXo Publishing(TM)http://www.xoxopublishing.com/Products/=”. I hired Goddess Fish Promotions http://www.goddessfish.com/ and went on blog tours and review only tours. I found ways to have print and virtual advertising as well has read to an audience while climbing the steep virtual promotion learning curve. It is hard to transfer from the concrete world of print to the electronic published world.
I entered Moving On into contests. Did not win. I entered Moving On into the Saskatchewan Book Awards http://www.bookawards.sk.ca/index.php. The short list will be announced on February 14, 2013.

A short short story, Christmas Wishes http://www.amazon.com/Christmas-Wishes-ebook/dp/B00A6GGJY4/ was released by XoXo Publishing on November 6, 2012. I enjoy having this short little slice of an adult Christmas available to readers.

A short, short read

A short, short read

On December 12, 2012, the perfect day, 12,12, 2012, Woman of Substance http://www.amazon.com/Woman-of-Substance-ebook/dp/B00AN9TE8W/ http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Woman-of-Substance/book-MZFwL4pOOUaxITmZkITv8Q/page1.html?s=HjolHOIc8UuO9NoHSbSdiw&r=1 B&N: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/woman-of-substance-annette-bower/1113954859?ean=2940015760903was released by Soul Mate Publishing http://www.soulmatepublishing.com/.

The new kid on the block.

The new kid on the block.

Again I am on the learning curve of trying to discover what will work best to have readers find my work in the millions of books available.

I look forward to connecting with friends and readers and readers who become friends in 2013.
