Hi Donald - Sorry I was crazy busy this week. I downloaded Reforming the Potter's Clay. Although Angels looks good too! I just thought I would start with one! I look forward to reading it but I know it won't be till next year when I slow up on review books!
Donald - Hi I found your site while running a search on eBook discussions. I have downloaded one of your books to read and review - hopefully will get to it in January! I participate (as reader and reviewer) with a group of "sweet" romance authors. You may check my blog and the links there if you are interested. Best wishes to you!
I am the national bestselling, award winning author of six critically acclaimed novels. I was twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction.
On Jan 9th, 2010 my debut novel, SUGAR will celebrate its 10th anniversary and in order to commemorate this milestone I am campaigning to sell 10,000 copies between now and that date.
“Bernice L. McFadden's first novel begins with the brief, poetic description of a crime so startling that the reader is helplessly drawn in, as if a bright red door stood ajar on a bleak and forbidding house. Pearl Taylor's daughter, Jude, has been found murdered and mutilated near a field at the edge of town. "The murder had white man written all over it," writes McFadden. "But no one would say it above a whisper. It was 1940. It was Bigelow, Arkansas. It was a black child. Need any more be said?" In the years that follow, Pearl catches sight of Jude in so many strangers that when Sugar Lacey comes to town and sets up her unwholesome "business" in the house next door, she doesn't know whether to believe what she sees in Sugar's face: a striking similarity to Jude, dead 15 years. In her sedate but supple prose--rising at times to a light, unforced lyricism in the description of landscape or character--the author perfectly renders the closed and protective society of a small Southern town, the superstitions, gossip, and prying.”
I’m asking that you purchase a copy of SUGAR for yourself, a friend or family member. And Yes, Kindle purchases count!
And if you could help spread the word by blogging, twittering ad Face-booking my campaign, it would mean the world to me.

Thanks for alerting me to your work. I just downloaded Love Waits. I also have a girl dealing with virginity issues in the novel I'm writing so this resonated with me right away!
Do you have any books in print? If not, do you plan to publish in print in the future?

Hi Donald, I looked at your page and will go back and spend some time. I spent a few weeks in South Dakota while my husband worked on a film, near Gettysburg. We stayed on the Indian place that had used for training. It was quite a good time. More later Sugar Ginger
