Well, we made it through another year, and 2007 is here. Isn’t it funny how time goes by so slow when we’re young, yet sprouts wings and soars away from us as we get older? I hope you all are having a great year so far, and I wish you many good days ahead.

I’m now into my third year as a published inspirational fiction author, and I’m loving it! To be able to do something that I really enjoy from the comfort of my home and get paid to do it is truly a blessing. I’m also blessed to have you all in my life as avid readers who continue to support and encourage me in my writing endeavors. Please know that it means so much to me that you share my joy of writing.

My fifth novel, TIME FOR HOPE, will be released this August. I will also be a featured author in another anthology entitled GOSPEL & LACE due to be released in October. My author cousin Jacquelin Thomas and Stephanie Perry Moore will have stories in this anthology as well. For those of you who have read THE BREAKING POINT, the sequel IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH, is scheduled for release next year. This will be Catina and Darryl’s story. For those of you who haven’t yet read THE BREAKING POINT, please get your copy today.

Please remember that I love hearing from you. Whether you send me an e-mail or a letter via the postal service or sign my guest book, I will send you my own personal reply. If any of you have signed my guest book in the past and did not receive a personal response from me, I do apologize. I’ve been having some computer problems and wasn’t able to personally respond to some of my guest book entries. I think the problem is corrected now and will do my best to answer you. Also, something else that would be very helpful is if you would please go online and do a review of any or all of my books if you liked them.

I haven’t been sending out newsletters because my schedule is so busy that I haven’t had the time. Hopefully though, in the near future, I’ll be able to do better in this area as well as in the area of writing more books for you to read. I’m really looking forward to hearing from you and seeing you at book signings. Again, thank you so much for your ongoing support and encouragement.

From my heart to yours,
Maxine
