News! Bears in the Hibiscus will be out in paperback soon! Check out my Special offer! page for ordering information.

Hello! Thanks for stopping by my book site. Almost all of my books are published in paperback and can be ordered on Kindle (Bears in the Hibiscus is not out yet in paperback). Paperbacks can be ordered from almost all Internet book sites. Pick your favorite! 

I'm doing my best to keep up with technology in publishing, but am overwhelmed almost daily by new information. Today, I noticed that, using a free APP from Amazon, you can read Kindle books on iPhone and iPod touch. I'm not sure what an iPod touch is, but those of you who have one will know. Yikes! The world is moving fast! More news: you can now get a free download from Amazon that enables you to order Kindle books and read them on your computer! Free Amazon download to use the feature: www.amazon.com/kindleforPC.  This can mean a considerable savings in your book purchases. Check it out! My latest discovery about this Amazon feature is that on their PC for Kindle the font can be enlarged so large that even the very sight-impaired will most likely be able to read it. What's not to love?

I've seen my Bears in the Hibiscus book on an iPhone, and it is very easy to read. Impressive. AND backlit. Wouldn't this be a great way to read in bed?

To make my site more assessable to my readers who are sight-impaired, I'm in the process of adding large type wherever possible. The larger fonts will be most noticable on my chapter samples. I think you'll like the difference--I sure do! Also, If you or someone you know has a sight problem, eBooks are delivered on your computer and the font size can be increased as needed. Of course, font sizes are also adjustable on the Kindle and other electronic reading devices. I put a Kindle link below my signature in case you haven't seen one yet. To get back to this site, just click the left arrow at the top of the screen.
