Second, my latest book has been born. D.N.A. is alive! I'm really excited about this one because it's my first venture into YA and it isn't a fantasy.
D.N.A. is the story of a girl who has to handle some major adult situations on her own .

Debney Nichole Armstrong thought she knew everything about her family. She knew her dad worked hard at everything, except building a relationship with his family. She knew her younger brothers were typical little kids, and she knew her mother, for some unknown reason, disliked her first born and only daughter.

On the night before a planned family vacation, Debney is inexplicably excluded. After a bitter argument with her mother at being barred from family vacations, especially one so close to her eighteenth birthday, Debney arranges a romantic dinner with her long time crush. During the chaos of a romantic dinner turned teen party, she learns of the death of her family. Yes, sometimes relationships in families end tragically. People leave; parents die, and lives change. But does it all have to bring out the skeletons in the closet?

What she really needed to know was did her mother contribute to the ‘accident’? Who is the man repeatedly mentioned in her mother’s journals? Where were the bodies of her ten year old twin brothers, and who is the father of the child she now carries? No matter what the answers are, Debney knows, nothing will ever be the same.

Three of My Books are Now on Amazon

As you may know I have been working diligently to e-publish a few manuscripts. It wasn't as hard as I thought to formulate and then upload to sites such as Sribd, Smashwords, and now to Amazon for the Kindle.

I've heard all of the naysayers about self-publishing, but in every aspect of life there is someone highlighting the negative. Been there, done that. Sometimes we have to turn our backs on the traditional and the norm or progress will continue to be hindered. Anyway, I just want to share my book page from Amazon.

This is a small synopsis of what each books is about.
