December 26, 2010 - New Reviews
I have been woefully remiss in updating news. To that end, I wanted to point out that Talk Story: Three Tales of Hawai'i, has received two really wonderfuly reviews: The first is from Kassa at Three Dollar Bill Reviews and the second is from the wonderful Ms. Lisa at Michele 'n Jeff Reviews. As if that isn't enough, Lisa also gave a lovely review to Kelland, and Ms. Kassa had very nice things to say as well. My thanks to both for these incredible gifts.

March 31, 2010 - Kelland Royalties to SNAP
All author royalties from sales of Kelland between April 1, 2010 and June 30, 2010, will be donated to SNAP, the Survivors Network for those Abused by Priests, the nation's largest, oldest and most active support group for women and men wounded by religious authority figures (priests, ministers, bishops, deacons, nuns and others). A non-profit, certified 501 (c) (3) organization, SNAP has been at the forefront of church sex abuse scandal by working to end the cycle of abuse in two ways: By supporting one another in personal healing; By pursuing justice and institutional change by holding individual perpetrators responsible and the church accountable. Order Kelland here, which results in a larger royalty earned per book and maximizes the potential donation. Thank you all.
