Reconnecting

Dear reader,

Many moons ago (many, many moons!) if you signed up for my newsletter, I promised that it would be infrequent. However, I did not really mean for it to be so infrequent that we all forgot each other!

Meanwhile, there’s been a pandemic and all our lives have changed. Each of you has my prayers for the best outcome possible in the intervening years. As many of you surely experienced, I lost dear friends to Covid, and others to cancer. It’s been rough for everyone, and my writing languished.

But I’m gearing up for bit of a comeback.

Which brings me to the reason for this post. Due to new regulations, I need to ask you to re-subscribe to my newsletter. If you would like to remain subscribed (or if you would like to sign up for the first time!), please enter your information in the form on the Newsletter Signup tab on this site. As always, you can unsubscribe at any time. If you are a current subscriber and did not resubscribe in response to the email I sent a week or so ago, you have already been automatically unsubscribed. Here’s a second chance if you want to change your mind! 😉

While I have been silent on the newsletter front, I have not been idle on other fronts.

• Depending on when you signed up, there may be new books available, notably novellas Christmas Hope and Christmas Grace;
  • All my books, except Opal’s Jubilee, are now available as audiobooks;
  • Hijacked, Unholy Bonds, and Opal’s Jubilee have new covers;
  • And I have made a host of behind-the-scenes tech changes.

A note about my newsletter: I am in the process of rolling out a brief, weekly newsletter. It will include stories behind the stories, where I find my ideas, excerpts of new writing, and how faith informs my art. Of course, you will be the first to know when something new is nearing release! And when I have publishing decisions or would like your insight, I will ask your opinion in surveys. I also hope to give my faithful newsletter readers occasional extras, like short stories, poems, or essays.

As I look through my subscriber list, I remember so many of you personally, and the events we shared, whether at a book signing or a retreat or at the Y (gym). There’s nothing quite as heartwarming and humbling as seeing a tangible list of people who mean so much to me. Thank you. 💖

So – if you’d like to continue as a subscriber to my newsletter, or sign up, please click here.

I am grateful for your presence in my life, no matter your decision.

Blessings and peace.

Leslie

PS – I’m rebuilding my website and hope to get it updated over the next few days. Meanwhile, welcome, and thank you for your patience!!!
