This week has been an active one. I received notification that my true short story A Heart Betrayed had been picked as a finalist in the Reader Views Literary Contest for stories about transformation. The story will be published in Loving Healing Press.

Today I just received word that Tears and Tales: Stories of Animal and Human Rescue is a semi-finalist in the 2006 Reader Views Literary Awards. The finalists will be announced in early April. If you visit http://www.insidescooplive.com you can look for and listen to my Internet radio interview.

To top everything off, I have placed Tears and Tales at the Ephraim McDowell Regional Medical Center gift shop where the four original copies sold out in five days. Their second order was for six books. And Bluegrass Airport in Lexington, Kentucky, contacted me. They want to place autographed copies of Tears and Tales in the airport gift shop AND in the bookstore upstairs. The manager thinks the book will be popular because most of the flights out of the airport are commuter flights and people are looking for short books or books of short stories.

Yippee!!!!!
