NEW BOOKS IN THE WORKS FOR JEMSBOOKS!
I know, you are saying, “What, is she kidding me?” No, I kid you not. My husband is working on my first fairy tale which I hope he completes in a 2-3 months. It is a difficult book to illustrate but he is doing well.
Not one to remain idle for long, I have begun Book 2 of Abby & Holly Series! As I have mentioned in previous posts, once I have a title I go with it and let the characters take over within reason. Sometimes they can get out of hand. Ha! It’s then that I need to rein them in. My plan is to complete this book by the fall of 2018. I will begin Book 6 of Davey & Derek shortly thereafter.
Writing for middle-grade boys and girls is a joy for me. It makes me feel like a kid again. I can act silly and say and do things that only MG kids do. It will keep me young longer, I hope. I plan to write many more of these.
If you have children ages 9-12 and grades 5-8, they will love these books and so will you. All Jemsbooks for children carry life lessons that encourage and teach children to be kind to each other, be accepting of differences in one another, bullying is unacceptable in any circumstances, show respect toward elders and each other, family and friends matter and always LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER! LOL! My mother would have loved these books. She always taught me to be kind to everyone even if they are not kind to me. Forgive others and love everyone as God would want us to do.
When I was growing up I was bullied at a young age not only by fellow students in school but also by teachers. Many days I would come home crying about someone who hurt my feelings. My mother would let me tell her my tales of woe. She wanted me to be strong even if she was not. She also was bullied as a child. I did what I could to support others who were also bullied and we would stand together against the bullies. I found if we did that the bullies walked away. Safety in numbers really works.
It took me nearly sixty years to become a stronger person. I will continue to support others who are oppressed. In this new series, Abby & Holly Book 1, School Dance, I focus on bullying and how it is not acceptable. I pray that if you have children who have been bullied that they will find strength in numbers and stand tall. BULLYING IS NOW AND ALWAYS WILL BE UNACCEPTABLE!
Please check out Book 1 Abby & Holly School School and Books 1-5 of Davey & Derek Junior Detectives Series. All these books are suitable for both boys and girls.

Janice, how exciting to be working on a fairy story and I’m smiling at your husband with his new illustrating task! Best of luck to you both! It can’t have been easy opening up about the bullying you faced as young even if it was a long time ago. It is touching how you are giving young people the strength and resources to overcome bullying in their lives through your books -fantastic. Happy Writing, my friend. You sound high on creativity which is a wonderful emotion! hugs xx
