Seasonal Catch-Up Post
Where hath the year gone? And why haven’t I been blogging about Dixiana (or anything)? Answers await. But first, a little story about today, 10/23.
Nice Press for DIXIANA
Got a nice, albeit brief, slot on the local Good Morning show this week.

Spring 2019 finds the editorial staff at Mind Harvest Press cheerful and deep in the third quarter of the final proofing of the Dixiana series, now rolling out […]
Because You Demanded It
That’s right, the Dixiana “ebook episodes” will get a paperback edition as well.

Upcoming Author Events!
