  Seasons of Sugar Creek: Summer is here! Yeah, I know it's fall. It's a little late. But it's here,  it's here! You can now pre-order my book on Amazon. I'll get it up on other retailers soon! Don't you love this cover? It's like a breath of fresh air. Thanks to Hillary Doan Sperry for the cover design!  Here's the blurb: Who will believe that a billionaire fashion icon and a tomboy dairymaid are dating? Tomboy Kristen Benton is roped into competing in the Miss Sugar Princess pageant with her sister. No one expects her to win—especially not the preening bullies who taunt her into wagering on the winner. Desperate for a pageant coach, Kristen makes a deal with billionaire fashion icon Ward Bianci to help her get into the final five. But the price he asks is pretty steep… Italian-American Ward Bianci needs a fake girlfriend to inherit his grandfather’s multi-billion dollar fashion empire. At a mutual friend’s wedding, the groom wagers Ward can’t get Krist

 My daughter's open house is over! Wedding prep that has lasted over a year for the three weddings is finally over! My sister got engaged last August. As her maid of honor-type person, we did a lot of talking about how and what to do for her wedding. As she was nearing 48, and her first wedding, we wanted to make sure that we properly celebrated. We decided on a Hallow-wedding! She loves Halloween and has skeletons hanging, not in her closet but in her garage. So between August and October it was a race as we picked a color scheme. We designed wedding invites. We planned. Mature brides have different priorities than young ones. No attendants. So that was nice. She paid for a large chunk of the party herself. And she had a huge invite list. Her bridal shower as a "mourning the death of her single life," including an obituary and macabre decor. Perfect for October. Her reception was a costume party with prizes and dress up. I was a German barmaid with my daughter. MCed the

#### update!##### We funded in TWO HOURS!! Now we're working on custom sprayed edges. We are so close to our stretch goals! We have color print, the prequel novella, the sprayed edges. The gorgeous hardbacks will all get foiled jackets! They are going to look amazing sitting on your shelf! Not only that, but the book itself is epic! Love, betrayal, enemies, lovers, centuries-old conflict.  Okay, I hope to see you there! I am trying something ridiculously scary and exciting all at the same time! I am launching my new pen name A. E. Zeigler in a Backerkit crowdfunding campaign !  What is crowdfunding ? Crowdfunding is where people all come together to fund a certain project that might be too expensive for a creator to fund on their own--like a board game or a print run of really beautiful edition of their books--within a certain funding period.  Words to know in a crowdfunding campaign: Creator : company or person who comes up with a project they want help funding Campaign : is a pro

I did something today that I've never done before. I bought a label maker and made labels to organize my bookmarks. If you are a label-maker type person I envy you.  It doesn't come naturally to me. I really struggle. I found out recently that I have ADHD. I was surprised, but I found that I was already doing something things to manage it. Lately, my family (my brothers and sisters) talk a lot about ADHD because we've all recently discovered that we all had it. I think it started with one of my siblings actually going to the doctor and getting diagnosed and the rest of us saying, oh, wait. I have that symptom, too. I was talking to one of my brothers about it and he said I was the one who escaped it. I was like, what are you talking about? I can tell you several symptoms off the top of my head. Look at my backlist, it jumps from genre to genre and I haven't finished a complete series yet. ADHD? I think so. Learning I have ADHD has answered a lot of question that have pl
