Well, I have finished HER WRITING WARDEN as well as the second book in the saga entitled HER CHIEF WARDEN. I expect WARDEN to be available within the next month or so. I am going with Readers Magnet to get WARDEN published.

Now, in addition to have several stories already started, I am striving to get a Literary Agent to represent me to a real publishing company.

FLEEING NORTH is the story of a young couple planning and then driving North to Canada to survive a Plague that is fatal to all who catch it. MUSIC TO HIS EARS is the story of a young girl’s journey as she overcomes hardships and lovelost before finding a man to love and protect her.

ESCAPING EARTH is my trying my hand at telling a sci fi style story about multidimensional travel. What happens when a man from another dimension falls in love with a third dimension Earth woman and produces a female child? What will this man do to save his child from a dying planet? If he could save one race of people which would he chose and why? Questions I answer with my own unique imagination and spin.

Well, I have my work cut out for me. Thanks for reading along with me.

Yesterday I finished HER CHIEF DOCTOR. This finishes the saga that started with HER WRITING WARDEN. Work at my publishing company is halted until Jan 4th when they go back to work.

I still have 3 stories I am working on. I will probably try to finish MUSIC TO HIS EARS or ESCAPING EARTH next.

Having company over for dinner to finish out this year. We are making seafood alfredo with a large tossed salad and my rainbow punch. Looking forward to 2021 being a better year than 2020. But, we survived 2020 so far so everyone stay safe tonight. Got to go start our dinner.

WOW!!! I sent my manuscript to my contact at my Publishing Company to get the cover done and the manuscript printed.

I am also wrapping up my 100 Day Book class through Write Practice. I have a final seminar to attend at 2 today and then I get to see what’s next. I have found a Beta Reader, I guess I can call her that. She’s a fellow writer from my class who has given me encouragement and fantastic feedback. So, Stephanie, thank you so much. She is currently reading (as I finish them,) Chapters from the Warden Saga, Part II entitled HER CHIEF DOCTOR.

I have 23 completed books she can read if she feels up to it.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in 2021 to all.

I finished HER WRITING WARDEN and it’s being published through Iron Publishing and hopefully they will promote it so I can sell some. HER WRITING WARDEN is part one of two. This story continues in HER CHIEF DOCTOR with more surprises.

Well, I finished my novel, THE MAN ON THE BUS and it is now available for purchase on Amazon or directly from me. My webmistress is working on getting it onto my site so you will see it there.

I am currently taking another course through THE WRITE PRACTICE to bone up my skills in putting my stories down on paper. They say you are never too old to learn just a little slower.

Enjoy the fall(ing) leaves and keep reading. Marcia

Well, somehow I lost last week’s blog.

Wish I knew how I managed to do it. Anyhow I was Thanking all my fellow classmates and cartel members for their help during the past ten weeks and with my launch.

I am working on the next Chapter of THE MAN ON THE BUS and giving out free copies of it. Still keeping touch with my cartel. I have a fan and sold copies of six of my books last week. Total excitement. I hope she posts her feelings on my site. She read HER SNOWMAN and loved it.

Well, my novella/story THE MAN ON THE BUS is available on Amazon. Here is the link to Amazon and the story.

I am excited to have this available. If there is anyone out there who needs help with their launch, let me know. I want to thank everyone who gave me feedback and helped me with my launch.

I am curious as to what my readers’ preferred genre to read is. Drop me a note or leave a comment. I have over twenty novels available on Amazon or directly from me. On my website you will find a brief outline of each story as well as the opportunity to Meet the Characters in each story.

In these times of staying at home, you might want to curl up with a good book or sit outside under your favorite shade tree with a glass of ice cold lemonade or iced tea and step into one of my stories.

Although as a writer, I feel I never get ahead…barely break even and easily fall behind. My internet is up but slow, I would guess due to the amount of people home.

Never has my phone rang so much from people wanting to sell me something…which if I needed it, I would call them. Hey, that’s their job…mine is getting caught up with my classwork and finishing my story.

If I could get Part 6 done, I could get it edited, critiqued and ready to add to my book. Getting good and great helpful feedback. Thank you all.

Well, this has been an interesting week. Starting on Monday my internet decided to go in and out all day. Tuesday it got more frequent with the crashes. This got worse as each day started. By Saturday, it became impossible to work on line at my class work at all. Finally, switched to Hughes Net at Dishnet’s recommendation, but they couldn’t come out until Tuesday. So, now I have internet. Sunday, we added another kitten to our family. Lot’s of entertainment and Bobby is 7 weeks old today.

Well, I have the cover designed for THE MAN ON THE BUS and I’m getting the Parts/Chapters formatted for Kindle on Amazon with the rest of my books.

So far, I am up to Part 6 and on the down side of this story, I hope. I want to keep working and writing with the previous critiques foremost in my mind.

Getting a lot of great feedback. Thanks to all.
