Happy New Year! I wanted to thank everyone for all of your continuing support from all over the world. I love hearing from you both on my Facebook page and through emails. It's always a joy to know that my stories have touched so many lives.

In return, I wanted to tell you a little bit about some of the charitable organizations that you help to contribute to throughout the year. You see, every time you buy a book of mine - it doesn't just give you a fun read, but I also use a portion of sales to donate to various charities and animal rescues. Now, you probably know that I have a soft spot in my heart for the animals, so you'll see below that many of the charities are animal rescues.

Keep passing on the light, my friends.
