Well 2016 was the year I finally finished Jacob's Granddaughters - thank you for all your kind words. It was a 12-month labor of love. Thank you to Steve and Michelle for their editing help and blunt comments :-) that kept me and the story on track. Recently I've been re-posting chapters to help clean up the story (Thanks Brian).
Also thanks to all my readers who kept this story going and for your encouragement (and patience).
As to Tyler Christmas - well I took a lot of flak for ending it too early. Sorry, but it was supposed to be a short Christmas story. But there is a light at the end of the tunnel - It has been suggested that I continue the story arc (Thanks Chris) with updates through holidays, so stay tuned for 'A Tyler Valentine.'
I'm back at 'Amends' (gasp!) but I won't post until the story is complete. If you're curious go ahead and read the first 10 chapters but give me a week or so to get it cleaned up. There are a lot of errors... (that was before I figured out that writing a story is a team effort) Don't expect anything new for several months though.
Finally, on this New Year's Day let's give a thought and thanks to all the men and women of our Armed Forces and Veterans. They deserve your respect and thanks.
And finally, warmest wishes for a very Happy and Healthy New Year. AA
