I have been busy changing things up a little beginning with my email. I am now with Comcast for my internet. Here is my new EMAIL: jjspina@comcast.net
Please make a note of this new email – jjspina@comcast.net
I will no longer be receiving emails on my former email of jjspina@myfairpoint.net
Please do not send anything there. If you have been trying to reach me and I have not responded, please forgive me. It has been crazy getting this new system up and running. Of course, now I have to change everything. What a nightmare!!!
I am in the process of updating my website, blog and online media and will be for a long time. Please be patient with me. I am recreating myself. Hopefully I will be better and more improved. LOL!
Thank you for your patience and continued support. God knows I need all I can get from you! Sigh!
In the midst of all these changes I am working on a new book, Book 6 of Davey & Derek Series and published my first fairy tale, The First Star, which is on Amazon and soon to Barnes & Noble. Also, you can click on the covers to the right of this post for purchase. Do you feel like clicking? Go on, have fun and click away!
