Someone please tell me summer is almost here! It’s sunny outside, it should be warm, but instead it’s fifty-some odd degrees. Kentucky weather can drive a person nuts; if it doesn’t warm up soon I am going to begin a search for my fans that live in a warmer climate to justify a book signing. Even if one person shows up I can justify the expense, right?
Besides freezing, I have managed to get Soul Of A Woman published. It is now live on Amazon, B&N, and Kobo and you can find the links below. I will be sure to update it when it goes live on iTunes. This book has been a long time coming for me. I wrote it five years ago during some of the most difficult times of my life. I took care of my mother who had a stroke when she was fairly young. As she got older her medical problems increased until she was bedridden for the last ten years of her life. I gained a lot of inspiration from how she lived her life. I saw her suffer pain that I know I couldn’t handle but not once did I hear her ask, why me? She wanted every day with her family that she could get. I have never seen anyone to this day have the unshakeable faith that carried her through to the end.
I wrote Soul Of A Woman during the last year of her life. I would sit beside her bed and write it in longhand. Our family knew the end was near and had an early Thanksgiving to celebrate. I had laid out all the Christmas decorations to put up the same tree I had put in her bedroom for years. It had all the handmade decorations of my children and special ornaments they had picked out over the years. She was especially close to my daughter, her little mini me. My daughter had called to tell me she was sick at school and I had brought her home. When she had got home she went into her room to talk to her. The last face my mother saw was her. I truly believe God gifted both of them that moment.
Grief held me back from wanting to write, finally when I began I had to type in the story from longhand. I finished it two years from the time I started writing it, then because the computer I owned was a piece of junk and like a dumbass I didn’t back it up I lost it and had to rewrite it. This took another couple of years because the interest in Soul Of A Man wasn’t exactly spurring me on. Lol. So between work and other stories I finished it again. It’s been sitting waiting for it’s time since then.
Soul Of A Woman is an Urban Fantasy, Broni the middle daughter of Fate finds herself lost on Earth, at the mercy of the Dark Highwaymen. It has it’s dark moments but Broni overcomes the challenges and get’s her man. Soul Of A Woman is a story that gives homage to women’s strength and fortitude. I love the story; I hope you do as well.
I also included a short novella at the end of Soul Of A Woman, which is the prequel to Soul Of A Man. It’s a short story of Fate and Odin’s one night stand. I also am putting the prologue to King’s book at the end. Plenty to keep you busy for a few hours at least.
I am planning on releasing King in June, as soon as I have a firm date I will make sure and post it. Currently I’m working on Cash and Rachel’s book, which I will try to finish by the middle of summer.
Hope everyone is doing well, and looking forward to summer.
Love,
Jamie Begley ❤
