Almost GO TIME~

Forgive my remiss, I have been busy editing and working on promotional components of the book. Book should be published, website up and commercial running by the second week of May. Check back for details the first of May.

VERY EXCITING!!

The anthology For Daddy with Love is a cache of 60 plus short stories, quotes, and comments from daughters ages 5 to 70 years old which reveal the complex themes in the father/daughter relationship. Drawing from all walks of life, these moving personal narratives may bring a smile, a sigh, a laugh, or a tear to your eye. They were gathered from artists, published authors, editors, educators, entrepreneurs, professionals, students, a noted sex expert & the strong, smart, and bold girls at Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara.

First Round of Selected Authors

An amazing collection of important moments has been gathered from daugthers who range in age as young as five and a half to brimming with wisdom at seventy-eight.

Thank you to all who have submitted!

It was a difficult process to make selections from such excellent contributions.

A portion of the proceeds from each book sale will go to Girls, Inc.

Girls Incorporated is a national nonprofit youth organization dedicated to inspiring all girls to be strong, smart, and bold. With roots dating to 1864, Girls Inc has provided vital educational programs to millions of American girls, particularly those in high-risk, underserved areas. Today, innovative programs help girls confront subtle societal messages about their value and potential, and prepare them to lead successful, independent, and fulfilling lives.

Next steps in the process will be editing, formatting, cover design, website design, marketing and promotion. I shall be blogging each step of the way to completion.

Your belief in and support of this project is much appreciated.
Any suggestions you have to share along the way will be most welcome.

Wishing everyone success engaging in their best life!
