FAREWELL, MY DEAR FRIENDS AT RB4U!

This isn’t a permanent good-bye, but a fond adieu, a farewell to the highly-esteemed fellow authors, the Gold Twenty, and everyone else I’ve had the pleasure of meeting here over the years! I’ve been a member for over three years and they have been some of the best conversations and informative information I’ve been part of. So, thank you one and all. I’ll make this short and sweet because I hate long good-byes.

The decision to leave wasn’t easy and has weighed heavy on my mind for several months. Changes have been abound, both personally and professionally. Working on my writing career, keeping house, and trying to get sleep in sometime, I ended up in the hospital last fall/winter. I knew something had to give when I was editing a final galley while in the hospital bed and in-between tests. On top of dealing with that, my husband and I decided to go Indie with our books after attending several conferences the last two months where other authors encouraged us to go out on our own. Since, Mike has received back his rights to almost all his books and I’ve been working more for him than me. I also write under two different names, so I have contract commitments to those titles and I feel like I’m losing focus.

Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m not complaining, but I needed to make cuts somewhere. Again, my sleep and health are more important. I can’t write when I’m laid up sick. With sadness, RB4U was on my cut list. I’m still here, just not in the same capacity. This group has given me so much and though I won’t have a monthly post on RB4U, I will still be around, stopping in to comment. I’ve met wonderfully talented artists, interviewed other authors (recently Kerrelyn Sparks and Lisa Renee Jones), participated in fun contests, and as I said at the beginning, some of the most knowledgeable and highly-esteemed authors I’ve ever had the pleasure to know. Thank you—Marianne Stephens, Rose Anderson, Paris Brandon, Molly Daniels, Tina Donahue, Desiree Holt, Gemma Juliana, Melissa Keir, Fran Lee, Sandra K. Marshall, Cara Marsi, Polly McCrillis, Nicole Morgan, Cindy Spencer Pape, Suzanne Rock, Janice Seagraves, R. Ann Siracusa, Jean Hart Stewart, Bobbye Terry, Renee Vincent.

Hugs and Kisses to everyone! I’ll miss being part of this great team.
