The MADNESS of March!

Hello, readers and friends! March is here, and there is so much happening this month! This blog post is about all the happenings of March 2024. First of all, I have an announcement and a request.

I Could Use Your Vote 🙂

Most of you are probably familiar with the March Madness NCAA games starting today. I entered a similar contest with my serialized novel Patches! We are in the fifth day of the first round, and Patches is up against a story called Indigo Ink. This link will take you to a linktree with all the information you need to vote, including the google voting form and links to all of today’s matches. Please go here and vote for Patches. 🙂 It’s a Supernatural Thriller (which is why it is in the category with horror and paranormal stories) and it is the only Christian Fiction story in the competition. I really appreciate your support.

March Highlights: Life Events Galore

I feel like it needs to be noted that in my life, March is the most eventful month:

  • March 10
    • My Father’s Death Anniversary. He passed away on March 10, 2019.
  • The Ides of March (March 15)
    • My birthday! Fun fact: According to a TikTok filter (who knows if it’s accurate) my birthdate is super rare. I find that interesting considering I know at least one person with the same birthday as me. 🙂 Another fun fact: On my birthday in 2019, I had a simple conversation that led to a life changing event.
  • March 16 (A Double Whammy)
    • March 16, 2013
      • Founders day for my theatre company: Certain Curtain Theatre. Got theatre? Why Certainly 😉
    • March 16, 2019
      • The day started talking to Justin Paul Kiewitt. (My hubby.) It started with a text. 🙂
  • March 21 – April 8
    • NCAA March Madness! It’s a big deal at the Kiewitt house. 🙂 I made my bracket a couple of days ago.
  • March 29
    • My wedding anniversary ❤ 🙂
  • March 31
    • Easter Sunday! He is risen!

You see why I say it’s eventful, right? lol 🙂 Thanks for taking the time to read my blog. I would love to hear from you. Drop me a line to let me know you stopped by. What’s going on in your March? I would love to know. If you have not a had a chance to read PATCHES yet, check it out on Kindle Vella. If you enjoy the story please hit the thumbs up at the end of each chapter! Also you can leave comments to let me know what you think of the story. The first 10 chapters are free, and after that it is only 10 tokens per chapter. (100 tokens are $0.99) When you make it chapter 11, I would be honored if you would give it a crown. These things help the story gain traction and attract more readers. New chapters coming this week!

September to Remember Giveaway Extravaganza!

Today I noticed that I finally made it to ten reviews!  Granted I need about 50 before Amazon starts to pay more attention to my novel, but ten is a really good start.  So a big thank you to everyone who has left a review so far.  If you have read the book and have not left a review, you could be among the forty others that I need to reach my goal of fifty. 🙂  At any rate, the enthusiasm of number 10 really blessed me. Here it is:

A Flashback Friday Video Review

Okay, granted Flashback Friday may not be an official thing, but it is for me on this particular Friday.  The following video review was one of my very first reviews.  When I offered a review copy to this lady, I had no idea what kind of books she read/published (she owns a small press as well as writes).  To both of our surprises, she writes erotica while I write Christian Fiction.  Still, she was very gracious and did the review anyway.  So I am posting it here today.  #FlashbackFriday #MayNotBeAThing #CreativeLicenseIsMySuperpower
