So, this book was fifteen years in the making. Seems like a long time, right? I need your help to get the word out. Thunderclap is based on the generosity of others to share one tweet, Facebook posting, or Tumblir message.

In Elephants Never Forgotten, we meet Nigella who has just inherited a herd of micro-elephants. Problem is, in this futuristic world, her elephants aren’t like anyone else’s.  Together with her best friend, Kepler, Nigella is caught up in a mystery. What was her grandfather up to before his death and what have her micros to do with the now extinct African elephant? Can Nigella uncover the truth before it’s too late?

On October 1st, please help me send a one-time message to announce this book. I need 100 participants or the campaign won’t launch. Currently, I need 32 more to sign on. I need you, every one of you. Help!

Oct. 2,2015: Thanks to everyone who helped make my Thunderclap campaign a success. With your generosity our combined social outreach was over 200,000! I could never have done that on my own. Thanks again!

THE BOOK IS NOW AVAILABLE!

Please help me announce it to the world! Don’t just ‘like’ this posting. Sign up and help me out.

I’m looking for 100 people to help me get the word out about my new book, ELEPHANTS NEVER FORGOTTEN. On October 1 (Thursday) at 6 pm, I have set up a Thunderclap to resonate across the universe. Those who sign up will use their Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr accounts to send a one- time message announcing the release of the book. It’s easy! Sign up on my account page, and Thunderclap does the rest. Can more than 100 people sign up? You bet, but I need at least 100 people or the message doesn’t get sent. Oh- and by the way, the clock’s ticking. There are only 22 days left. Help!

WORLD ELEPHANT DAY

Today is World Elephant Day. Since 2011, this day has been used to highlight the plight of elephants around the world, both wild and those in captivity. Ivory is still a commodity and poaching still happens. Not to mention abuse which occurs in captivity.

In a few weeks, I’ll be releasing a middle grade novel which highlights these sentient beings. Elephants Never Forgotten takes us into a world of the future where elephants and their habitat are gone.  One twelve year old girl stumbles onto a mystery that might allow them to return. Details on the release will be coming soon.
