Join me for my first book signing this year. Get autographed copies of Justice Burning or Dysfunction Junction at more than 30% off retail. Talk about a great Christmas gift, right? I'll have lots of bonus things on hand as well, so be sure to come by and visit.

I'm proud to say may sister Angel will also be there with her hand crafted and personally designed jewelry. She has TALENT people! I love wearing her bracelets, necklaces and earrings. Her booth will be right next to mine, prepare to be blown away. :)

The Bazaar will have a gift wrapping station, a Craft Cabin for the kiddos, a cafe with delicious treats and of course lots of great shopping. You can see more at the Facebook Event page.

Come have fun and help support my high school Alma mater. I look forward to visiting with you all. :)

Best of the best for Mother's Day - Early!

Song Stuck on the Brain: My Mother My Daughter by Janice Kapp Perry

There are some really great Mother's songs out there though, and this one by Carrie Underwood is another favorite.

Mother's Day is just around the corner and my sister and I have been busy making plans for mom. After all the menu options we've tossed around though, we've all decided that fried fish sounds good. So amongst the broccoli salad, Aunt Betty's Strawberry Jell-o salad (family recipe and the only jello I can eat), and organic fresh watermelon - we're tossing in some good ol' Captain D's. All I can say is, as long as Mama's happy - I'm happy!



The Erwins: Angel, Linda and April

My mom is a pretty amazing woman. She's been a foster mom to over 28 kids, adopted 2, gave birth to 2 and raised a total of 5 of us all together. One foster brother aged out before he could be adopted, but we still claim the goofy guy. :)

You'd think that would have been enough for anyone person, but she's also helped raise grandkids, taught art and music classes and been church music director off and on for many years. She plays piano and organ and played the cello too. She sings and recorded a CD with my sister and I (The Erwins Acappella). She writes, paints, draws and sews. She ran her own health store for many years.

I could probably go on and on, but one of the things that impresses me most about mom is her attitude. She's a very positive person and has a very strong faith in Jesus. Although she and our family have been through some very rough situations, her faith has remained strong. She's gained a lot of wisdom in her life and she willingly shares it in a way that is helpful and kind.

I'm not ashamed to say I want to grow up to be like my mom. :)

I've found my token of appreciation to share with her this Sunday and I hope you found one for your mom or 'mom like' person in your life. If you haven't yet, let me share a few ideas with you.

My latest book, Dysfunction Junction is on sale for 75% off this weekend only! It's a pretty good price to start with, but on sale? It's ridiculously affordable! Be sure to check the sale out HERE.



and don't forget Missing Pieces, my first novel. It's also at a great price right now if you go HERE.



Looking for something other than books? How about giving pearls back to the one who is so priceless to you? My sister Angel is the designer and creator of Angels Divine Designs and she has some great offerings. Check out her page at www.AngelsDivineDesigns.com

Dysfunction Junction Valentine's Gift pack - Enter to Win

Valentine's Day is almost here and love is in the air. For some of us long time singles it's not always an enjoyable day, but that can change, right?

 

For Kianna Ravencamp, true love seems to be a thing of the past. Dysfunction is what seems to rule. She's 26 and never been kissed - but this year things are looking different. It's raining men and sparks are flying. Does this mean God has a True Love planned for her after all?

 

Find out in my newest book Dysfunction Junction, a Christian novel where Comedy, Drama, and LOVE abound.

 

Bonus: Kianna is a songwriter in Dysfunction Junction. As part of this gift pack, you win 2 of my original songs - Rain on Me and Free to Fly. There's also a bonus track of the very romantic Wedding Song. All performed by my sister Angel and I.

 

Speaking of Angel, she's an amazing jewelry designer and has teamed up with me to design 'Rissa's Charm bracelet', just like the one Rissa wears in the book! Check out her other designs at Etsy  or at http://www.facebook.com/AngelsDivineDesigns.
