The TreasureHi, Crimson Romance readers out there! *waves* Thank you so much for having me today. My debut book, The Treasure, released this month so I’m very excited to be here! Thank you so much for sharing it with me!!

In honor of my release I am giving away a $5.00 Amazon gift card to one lucky commenter so please leave me a comment with your EMAIL to be entered to win!!

I’d like to tell my readers to make your dreams happen! Dreams really do come true if you work hard and never give up. I can’t remember wanting to be anything except a writer. I grew up devouring books — even got caught in the seventh grade reading a romance book in the back of my math book, LOL!

I detoured along the way, went to college, got a degree in Respiratory Care, and worked in a hospital as a Respiratory Therapist for 13 years before the time felt right to pursue my career as a writer—my dream. So, I quit my job, thanks to my wonderful hubby who supported us on his income, and began writing full-time. It took me 10 years to become published (I wrote during my years at the hospital) and 3 years once I began writing full-time to sign a contract! There were many heartaches, detours, pitfalls, doubts, joys, celebrations, and pains along the way, but it’s worth it. So if you have a dream, don’t give up! No matter how long it takes you to get there, don’t give up. Dreams really do come true. So make it happen!

I wish you all the luck in the world on your endeavors and hope that you will follow your dreams as I have. And when you do drop by my website and let me know that you did it! I’d love to hear your stories of inspiration!

As for me, I’m gonna keep on writing and following my dream!

Thank you for having me today! I just want to send out a big THANK YOU to all my readers out there! Without you I wouldn’t be here. My wish is to one day meet each and every one of you so I can personally thank you for your generosity and support!

All my best,
Jennifer

  1. Congratulations, Jennifer! Following dreams is hard work. :) I, too, took many years to realize my writing dream. All the struggles are worth the joy that comes from succeeding.

    Best of luck to you with your debut!

  2. I came to writing later than I wished I had. I’ve always loved reading. It took me a long time to get published, but I’ve enjoyed the journey. I couldn’t not write. I live for it!

  3. The Treasure sounds wonderful. Who doesn’t like adventure and best yet…with a hot guy next to them?
    And you are so right. Life is far too short to love with regret. Follow the dreams, don’t wait for opportunity. Make it happen.

    Great post. Very inspirational.

    • Hi dawnbush! You are so right! Best advice you could give your children, in my humble opinion! I tell mine the same thing! No matter what the dream, it is never too big or small. If you want it, work for it, give it your all, and go for it!! I hope you enjoy the book! And thanks for stopping by!
