"Jackson" Rises to #1 on Kindle in Canada. What is Happening Behind the Scenes to Make This Possible?
I’ve been working with writers who have chosen different paths to publish. There are many options today. Each one has its pros and cons. Regardless of which way you go, marketing and promotion are going to fall on your lap.
“Jackson” did not become a best seller because of its content. I would love to believe it did but would be naive in doing so. It was a result of strategic, step-by-step actions taken over months of time and the involvement of many people along the way.
We must change the way we see and treat this mental health crisis in our world.
Almost one half (forty-nine percent) of those who feel they have suffered from depression or anxiety have never gone to see a doctor about this problem and only one in five children with mental-health problems receive mental health services.
Pick up the phone. Drop by for a visit. It could be the moment you save someone's life.

What's it all About?
Last week, my husband and I were on a highway in Maine, after a long road trip relocating our son to the east coast. We were heading for a two-day vacation in Boston. It was raining very hard and I was getting quite nervous, to the point of repeatedly asking my husband to slow down. He was in total control, an excellent driver, yet I was imposing my discomfort on him. I realized that it was me causing the stress between us in the truck, not to mention distracting him. I consciously decided to take my eyes off the road, trust him to do what he was doing so well, and focus on a Sudoku Puzzle. Talk about a difference! Being aware of what we bring into a situation can give us the power to change our mindset and the circumstances in which we find ourselves. Try it!
