To my two followers:

Not knowing it at the time, I have managed to construct a saga of sorts that has eight installments, so far. Having written most of them at different times and not in order, I had no idea that the chapters would eventually all fit together. "Hala's Snow Day" was originally written around 2008, and it was not until 2009 that I understood that there was more to the story. Thus I began to write "Cowgirl Hala" as a sequel to that story, and finally finished it today, August 11, 2016. I would apologize for the delay but there has been so much chaos in my life that I don't know why it took so long.

It is now clear to me that there are some sort of trademark elements to my stories and I do not know the why of that either, so I have just decided to ride this bronk until it stops. I write romances, this I know for sure. I like strong female protagonists but don't make them tougher than a man. One feature that recurs is that somewhere along the line, my female protagonists get spanked by her love interest. What? My stories also tend to contain good Arabs and good Aliens, I suspect as my snotty reaction to the media's unfair portrayal of the same.

The two stories form a plot line that will carry on for hundreds of years. So, thus begins the tale in earnest. Hala's children will eventually go on to begin to explore our galaxy and others should I live long enough.

To both of my followers, I hope that you enjoy them all.
