In Loving Memory - Charlotte Roth

Image
A message from Charlotte Roth Today's date is tattooed in my heart <3 As a writer, I always try to comment on the social settings and the emotional world around me... Last year, I wrote a very heartfelt book about a mother's struggle to keep her son alive after he's shot in a school shooting. If you're interested in a free e-copy, I would love to give it to ( see description in comments ). All you have to do is PM me or write in comments. PS. The story will make you think and you might need a tissue or two. Take care and all the best <3 Facebook link

Lost in Love - Charlotte Roth

Image
Hi friends, Sorry I've been silent for such a long time. As a writer, it feels odd to say that I've been lost for words. But I have... At the end of summer, I lost my dad-in-law. I call him that 'cause that's who he was to me--my second dad. The grief was overwhelming and for the longest time, I couldn't write. See, he was one of my biggest fans. He was so not my target audience but he loved every single thing I ever wrote--my emails, my silly texts (always signed, "the crazy lady with all the spoiled rotten kids") and, yes, my books..."It's like I can hear your voice and see you laugh when I read your books," he always used to say. I just finished my latest book, Lost in Love . I finally managed to write again because he would've wanted me to. And, oh, how I wish he could read this one too. His favorite book was my first book ever, Lost in Seattle, and I'm sure he would have loved to read more about this crazy family in the

A Beautiful Spider Lily - Updated

Image
Life is constantly changing with challenges and decisions every single day. Time is a good teacher because what was very good last year can change to something totally opposite this year. That is very true when it comes to certain people. You think you know them. But you only know the false side they are so good at bringing to the fore. What they allow you to see. Deep down inside lies something they have become good at hiding - something the opposite to their day to day character - ugliness. On the other hand the majestic white spider lily flower above is genuine. No hidden dangers. It's pure. It is exactly as beautiful as it is. Nothing false about it. Maybe that's why good women love flowers. When you give them with a good heart they tell a story of honesty. Flowers are pure and beautiful. So you are giving something pure and beautiful - a perfect gift. This spider lily flower was photographed with my Canon camera using a 50 mm lens on today the 11th of February

Planet Perfect - Charlotte Roth

Do you have a dog? If yes, you might understand when I say that I don't know what makes me more excited--the release of my brand book or a picture of my puppy with it? I have officially become the crazy dog lady LOL.  But, it is pretty exciting with my new book. It came out Wednesday and people are already connecting with it and reviews are ticking in. What would you sacrifice to have the perfect life? is the basis of my new book, Planet Perfect--a captivating story that will keep you turning the pages, or, as one reader wrote, "It was an awesome story that in a few parts I felt like I was going to break my kindle trying to turn the pages as fast as I could."  You can check it out here . Thank you and happy reading! Speaking of happy reading... What book are you currently reading/planning to read next?  I would love to get some awesome suggestions to my own TBR. I just finished a book by one of my author friends and I really enjoyed it. It ha

Last Week Of 2017

Image
We decided to visit the Mall of Africa in Midrand. After all, it was Maggie's wish to go there a year ago. I wanted to pop in at the iStore and look at the latest iMac. After drooling over the computers in the iStore we went to the bank and spent a lot of time there which turned out to be a total waste of time. That was actually the previous week. This week we returned to the Mall of Africa and decided to try Incredible Connection . I was still intent on getting that iMac. Looking at the Mac I tried out the new features and it looked really cool, but it was as if I had to convince myself to choose it. Most of my software is Windows driven. Changing to a Mac would be a huge adjustment. Since I was in the store with all sorts of computers I decided to walk around and look at other makes to clear my head. That's when I discovered the gaming machines. I'm not a gamer but was intrigued by the hardware. That's when I saw the ASUS ROG G752VS I7 GAMING NOTEBOOK. Th

Even though I’m happy to be here among big happy palm trees bathed in the rays of the rising sun, I’m also tired, jet-lagged, and a little hungover, and I can’t decide whether I agree with the smell of morning sausages or not. I look up at Lori, sitting right across from me on her suitcase, still wearing her pink hat and sunglasses. “Geez.” She brings the big sunglasses down to the bridge of her nose. “Cou

So please do grab a free copy of my eBook, The One That Got Away--a fun, warm-hearted, and compelling story about a lot of what if’s, how we often take love for granted, and how life doesn’t always have to be picture perfect!

Let's Keep Our Kids Safe In School (Charlotte Roth)

I received this email from the author of Holding On To Hurt, Charlotte Roth, with the heading: Let's Keep Our Kids Safe In School. Below is the contents of her email and I thought it appropriate to mention it on my blog. 100% all of  proceeds  to charity! During the entire month of June, I will be donating all the proceeds of my new book to charity. I will also wear my orange t-shirt to honor the more than 90 lives cut short every day. And to honor all the parents, kids, brothers, and sisters who have lost a loved one to gun violence. June 2nd is National Gun Violence Awareness Day, and I have decided to help raise awareness AND money by donating all of June proceeds to Sandy Hook Promise--a nonprofit organization founded by the Sandy Hook victims' families. Their mission is to raise awareness and implement kindness programs in schools and local communities. I am a Promise leader myself and this is my way of helping. I hope you will join me, support and raise awar
