WHITE ROSES by Shannon Taylor Vannatter

I read this book last night and enjoyed it.

Shannon's writing style has an easy flow that puts you instantly into the story.

The characters are strong and tangible.

If you like Christian romance, this book is for you.

Please check out Shannon's website.

Do we ever stop writing?

I don't think we do.

Even though things have been so busy in my household, and I have not picked up a pen or opened Word, I continue to work on my stories. They play in my head until I am able to sit and physically write.

So, I encourage all those that write...keep working on your stories even if you're not able to physically write.

God bless!

Sincerely - Kimberli

Write! Write! Write!

I need to add 11 pages to the second book (Redemption: Shayia's Adventures - Book Two). So far, I've only added three. Hopefully it won't be too hard to fill in the rest. (Guide me, Lord.)

We are working on a new Youtube video for the first book. The first video can be found at - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g24buPdbSX8

The third book is on hold while I work on the second book.

The Lord has not given me a fourth book for this series. I'm continuing to pray for His direction.

I've written a television movie treatment for a Disney Channel movie. So...if anyone out there is looking for a movie to produce. ;)

Praying for all those called to write.

Oops! A little behind in posting!!!

So much has happened in my life, but I won't go into it.

As for writing, I've finished my second book! Praise the Lord. We are praying to release it in September as we re-release my first book with its fresh new cover. It looks awesome.

I have been working on the third book. It's been SLOW going.

The Lord has truly blessed me with wonderful people in my life - family, friends, publisher and associates. I am truly humbled.

Well, it's really late and my mind is... I don't know. :)

I pray you all have a blessed day/night. In Jesus name.

Writing Update!

Hello Everyone!

It's been awhile since I've given an update.

I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but writing with a 3-year-old can be tough. :)

Thankfully, it's summer break and my 15-year-old has offered to watch his brother while I write. This is a HUGE blessing.

So...

I'm now beginning chapter 14 of my second book. The book will have 16 chapters, so I'm almost done with the first draft. Praise the Lord!

Don't forget to pick up a copy of - The Sword of Light: Shayia's Adventures Book One - at Target.com and Amazon.com to name a few.

If you're on Youtube, check out the book trailer! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g24buPdbSX8

Lastly, I'm still looking for reviews!!!!

Blessings - Kimberli

It's Finished!!!!!!

The book trailer is now finished.

Now I need to figure out how to upload it to this blog.

If you see it soon, you'll know I figured it out. If not, you'll have to go to Youtube when I upload it there.

Thanks!!!!!!

I hope you like it!!!!!!

So...what's been going on?

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted.

MUST GET BOOK TRAILER DONE! :)

I've been working hard trying to create a book trailer. Thanks to wonderful writing groups and the internet, I've learned how to create a book trailer using Windows Movie Maker.

Through some trials and MAJOR errors, I'm getting the hang of it.

Steve Ott, an artist, drew all the sketches and they look incredible.

I'll have it done by March 8th and will try to post it on the blog.

Have to get back to work!!!!!!

River Lights Bookstore, 2nd Edition

The Lord truly blessed me this weekend as I traveled to Dubuque, Iowa to have my book signing at the River Lights Bookstore, 2nd Edition.

How many books did I sell? None.

Why am I blessed? I was able to meet the bookstore owner. She was able to see what kind of person I am, therefore, she can share with others. She now knows my name and is willing to do what she can to promote my book.

I want to thank you for your prayers!

God is good!!!!!

What's next?

Hello Friends,

There is so much to do this year - 2009.

We are working on getting the book out to the world. There are more book signings in the works. We're also working on some Youtube trailers.

With all there is to do, I still need to get working on the second book.

I need to ask again for reviews. :) So, if you have a moment, please drop by Amazon, Target, and/or Google Books and share your comments of the book.

Please continue to pray that we follow in the steps the Lord has for this book.

Thanks - Kimberli

Sold 13 Books!!!!!

Hello Everyone!

Praise the Lord. We sold thirteen books at the book signing.

My signature was a little shaky at first, but I relaxed after a while. Several people shared their desire to write, but didn't really know how to start. I gave them some online group sites with awesome writers to help encourage them on their journey.

My publisher has at least two more book signings scheduled early next year.

Thank you for your prayers and support!!!!

Sincerely - Kimberli

Waiting for Reviews

I have to be honest, it's really hard waiting for reviews.

When the reviews do come in, I need to be ready for the good and bad. I must also learn from both.

Thanks - Kimberli

Copyright date - BIG OOPS!!!

I made a big mistake when I had my book printed.

For the copyright, I put 2003, which is when I wrote it. Unfortunately, that's incorrect. The date goes by when it is to be printed.

So... learn from my mistake. :)

Blessings - Kimberli

PS - It will be fixed on the next printing.
