Thank you for a wonderful year. Breaking TWIG has become a top selling ebook in both coming-of-age and mother-daughter relationships in women's, southern, and historical fiction. To celebrate, I'm giving away free Kindle downloads of Breaking TWIG on Dec. 24 and Dec. 25.

And I haven't forgotten those who like the feel of a print book in their hands. The paperback version is on sale for $13.88 through Amazon.com OR you can order a copy through my estore at: https://www.createspace.com/3709482   and use coupon code: JZ6GVF5D  for an extra savings of $1.00. This code only works when ordering through my estore link given above. It does not work when going through Amazon.com link.

If you would like an autographed copy of the Breaking TWIG paperback, please write to me through the "Contact Me" page on my website:

Wishing you the blessings of the season and a wonderful, peaceful 2013.

There are so many things to celebrate this week; it's hard to know where to start. School is starting up again and my son is starting his
FINAL semester in college. He's also starting his new part-time job working in   an electronics department (a dream job for a gadget and tech savvy   twenty-something).

It is also time once again to add another candle to my cake. I must admit I have always liked pie better. So we will have a "birthday pie" instead of a cake. (Not that my hips need either one) Although the candles are adding up too fast, I am comforted by that lesson from the porch that reminds us we’re either getting older or we're dead. So, pass me that candle.  :-)

And my biggest news is that Breaking TWIG is FINALLY available in paperback. Yeah! Since many  who have asked for a paperback format are also in book clubs, I have included a  Reading Group Discussion Guide in the paperback. If you have the Kindle version  and would like a copy of the discussion questions, please fill out the comment form on this site or email me at breakingtwig@hotmail.com. I'd be happy to send it to you. More about this in the next blog.

So help me celebrate with a FREE KINDLE  DOWNLOAD of Breaking TWIG on August 26& 27. Enjoy a happy and safe Labor Day weekend. Thanks for your wonderful support.

Hi y’all,

It seems May is a month of celebrations. In addition to the
birthdays (my son and brother's), graduations, Mother’s Day, and the Memorial
Day holiday, this month has many lesser known, but equally deserving holidays
to celebrate. For example, did you know May was Family Wellness Month
and National Military Appreciation Month? 

Being from the Gulf Coast, I especially want to mention that May
is American Wetlands Month and give a special shout out to Capt. Wendy at
bayouwoman.com for all her work in helping restore and protect the wetlands of
southern Louisiana. 

In May, we also have National New Friends, Old Friends Week: 15-21.
It’s the perfect time to reconnect with an old friend and reach out to a
new one. Eliza Doolittle Day is May 20th (for our cousins across the pond),
and we can’t forget May is also National Barbeque Month,in honor of all
grill-masters everywhere, especially Nathan, my husband and griller
extraordinaire for almost thirty years. 

So in honor of so many wonderful happenings in May, I am giving
#free #kindle downloads of my ebook, Breaking TWIG. on May
20th.  Find it at:  http://amzn.to/rPjpKo

Have a wonderful month and thanks for stopping by,

Deborah
