I survived one day of testing – for me it was mind-numbingly
boring. Three hours where you can’t read, can’t write, can’t eat, can’t drink,
and they would rather you not sit. We are to stare at the children. But as I
said, I survived. Today is the last day of testing. Much of Wednesday is taken
up with awards day and Thursday is field day and we get out at noon. It’s
coming, it’s coming!
You know I tell you here about my books – you know, just
look to the left – click on any of the books and feel free to buy them – but
truly I try to keep the book pushing over at the Reading Room. But a good
friend has written one I do want to tell you about. Sadly, as good as the book
is, there is no spanking in it. However, we all need to take a brake from only
one type of book and this one will expand your horizons. The author is my
friend Donna Steele.
The book is The
Infection, Book one of The Melting Series.
Here’s the blurb: - David Morrow has studied global warming first as a prodigy and now as
a respected professor. He knows the value of sustainability and clean energy.
But is it too late for the planet? He expected the rising of the seas, harsh
hundred-year storms, but he never expected this.
Amanda Sutton
first studied medicine to please her father, now she’s part of the scramble to
find a cure before the virus destroys civilization. Will the strange connection
between them keep them together as the world disintegrates around them?
Donna says: Yes,
I like to write the end of the world and the day after stories. I love to see
how people step up and handle significant even overwhelming changes in their
life.
You can go over to the Reading Room and read a longer excerpt and you can
go by Donna’s blog to learn more about her and her books.
Hey PK...not a real fan of end of the world scenarios but will go over to the Reading Room and check out the excerpt.
