Yippee! Thank all of you who have contributed to the first 50% of my progress towards Quill and getting published!  So, first things first...CHAPTER 10 is on the site.  Secondly...

I have about 150 followers...and over a hundred who haven’t ordered yet are just itching to have a reason to pre-order.  So here’s my offer.  The next fifty pre-orders will go into a RAFFLE.  I will then draw a name out of a virtual hat and award $100 to the winning name!  I know, people offer mugs and scarves and hand knitted blankets...but really, nothing says thank you more than buying what YOU want!  Okay, the raffle is officially open! Hit the picture below or HERE and pre-order now!

Check out the "Not Afraid of the Fall" Facebook Page (https://www.facebook.com/notafraidofthefall/) to see the video clip that accompanies this excerpt from the book:

"Jumping for the first time is scary. I wasn’t afraid of landing on anything. The water that resembled blue Gatorade was clearly twenty feet deep. I also wasn’t afraid of drowning. I am not a great swimmer, but I am a magnificent water-treader. What scared me was the fall itself. I was afraid of jumping because as soon as I left the familiarity of my rock, I was no longer in control. I couldn’t decide that I preferred the comfort of my rock halfway to the sea and turn back. It was all or nothing. Gravity would take over and whether I was ready or not, I would be seeing my rock from a different perspective. Despite the fear of the unknown, I decided I had spent enough time on this rock and jumped. When gravity introduced me to the Adriatic, she welcomed me with open arms."

P.S. - For those of you not counting  at home, we only have 40 days left to reach the 750 preording goal! This means we need all hands on deck! Please share this with your friends, colleagues and family to spread the word!

I know we can do this. After all, they don’t call it March Madness for nothing.
