Today, Sunday, December 23, 2012, (one day only) The Christmas Secret eBook version, is now opened up to the public for $0.00 “FREE” on Kindle. You can now download the new version now.

The Christmas Secret Update

I tested the corrected version adding the pages that were missing from (Chapter 5), in various readers, e.g., a Cloud Reader, iPad, Kindle for PC, Kindle Fire, and a Galaxy 10.1 eReader– all versions have “minor” formatting hiccups, and I’m happy to say Chapter 5 is intact, and I think you will find the story makes much more sense now. I hope you enjoy my book!

Can an author break away from a genre?

Virginia Wright AuthorI’ve thought for many years of writing a romantic novel. Some say when you get branded for one genre that it is hard to break away from that stigma. Two years ago I joined Romance Writers of America, and it has taken me two years to write one chapter of a romantic novel, but I’m giving it a whirl, and putting one foot ahead of the other. I just bought a romantic mystery on Kindle “An Unlikely Arrangement” by Patty Wiseman. Congrats Patty on your newest release! Maybe one day I will get mine finished–until then, I’m working on my next children’s book “The Christmas Secret” and I love how it is beginning to unfold…

I illustrate my own books, The Princess and the Castle, The Prince and the Dragon, Crying Bear and my book “Buzzzzzzzz What Honeybees Do” as well as take photographs for those I feel photographs would be better served. Writing is something I have done my whole life…dreamed of being a writer when I was just a little girl (Virginia Brown) writing in my journal on the veranda in Belfast, Maine. Not every book is a winner, but for me it is a personal journey, and so very awesome to think that people buy my books and read my words and may learn something from what I have written, such as in my non-fiction, Buzzzzzzzz. Or that a small child learned a lesson in Crying Bear, or that a little one might fall asleep dreaming they are a princess after being read The Princess and the Castle…

For me, as an author, and writer…nothing could be any cooler than to hear someone liked something I wrote. I’m hoping, and believe, that if you write for your readers, that your believers and faithful followers will check out your new genre.  It doesn’t mean that they will like what you are writing but they will probably understand and respect your growth as a writer…

Honey Butter Recipe the Whole Family Will Enjoy!

My husband, a former beekeeper, one summer when we were beekeeping that we would be able to take off some honey from the hives. I was so, EXCITED, and geared up my taste buds for some of that long-awaited honey. I thought about what I would do with the first tastings of pure honey from the “Wright Family Farm,” and the family suggested homemade biscuits. So, I decided I would get my Honey Butter Recipe out and share it online, as it makes for a delicious topping on biscuits. There are all kinds of different recipes for Honey Butter, some call for raw egg, some call for confectioner’s sugar; some add cinnamon…such as mine does.

Experiment for yourself, and when possible, buy pure honey from a Natural Beekeeper that opts not to use chemicals in their beehives. When I talk about “Pure” honey, I’m talking about honey that corn syrup has not been added to it, to stretch the honey. I’m also talking about honey that is taken off a hive where the beekeeper doesn’t use any chemicals in the keeping of their bee colonies inside the hive. Yes, it is true, beekeeping is simple, but complicated– a hobby for some, a source of “money for honey” for others…
