Featured Author - Valerie Maarten - Indie Spring Fling
Let me introduce myself...
I have been writing ever since I discovered that letters made sounds and a combination of letters made words. It wasn't until recently that I decided to share my work with the public at large.
It's true what people say about writers, "they don't write for fame, fortune and glory...they write for the love of writing and sharing." I'm sure most of my fellow writers know what I'm talking about. I know I'm not the only one that invested in rubbermaid storage bins to store your earlier, written work (before the laptop), just in case you decided to go public.
The only thing I love more than writing, besides the obvious (God, family, life and country), is reading. As you will soon learn, I have an eclectic taste in what I read. There isn't a romance genre that I will pass up. I've recently began reading suspense and paranormal romance and have dabbled in the vampire series, once in a while.
But one day, I'm going to reach in my storage bin and dust off that masterpiece I've been working on.
Until then...
What Readers Are Saying!
What a great story! I bought/read it over the weekend, (wept) and thoroughly enjoyed Ms. Maarten's writing.
It is a deeply romantic story, every element of that definition exists, and those elements are very well played.
Wow wonderful, sad sweet and gave me goose bumps. Love the message of the book, what a guy Gabe is and Joy strong I think personally. Some books when you read you feel no emotional attachment to it and some they will always be at the back of your mind. I say get a copy read it and see what you think and feel about the book.
