THE REASONS – My Award Winning Novella – FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME!

It’s time for another free book! For the next four days my novella, THE REASONS, will be free on ALL Amazon platforms!

THE REASONS was originally penned in 72 hours at the 2008 Muskoka Novel Marathon. It went on to win the 2008 BEST ADULT NOVEL AWARD, as chosen by a panel of industry judges (Please note that it won the ADULT award…though I normally write Young Adult fiction, I occasionally write a story with adult themes. Don’t mistaken this one for Young Adult.).

After a year of heavy editing, THE REASONS was picked up and published by MUSA Publishing. This is when it won its second award! It received Musa’s in-house EDITOR’S TOP PICK AWARD.

Sadly, Musa has closed its doors. Both Sebastian’s Poet and The Reasons were published by this publisher. They are both still available on Amazon, with new covers. For the next four days, you can pick up THE REASONS for FREE!

Let’s call this another PRIDE MONTH freebie…a gift from me to you! Please note there are no outwardly LGBTQ characters in this book, but who knows (-;

THE REASONS is the story of a highly dysfunctional family striving to survive. Aren’t all stories essentially a take on this theme? No? Just me?

You can click on this link on the Muskoka Novel Marathon website to read the first chapter of THE REASONS if you are so inclined…but since it’s free on Amazon, you could simply rush to Amazon and download the entire book!

Here’s the cover blurb for THE REASONS:

With a mostly absent father, a deceased older sister, a younger sister on the verge of invisibility, and a certifiably insane mother, Tobias Reason is forced to grow up quickly. Though he tries to be a surrogate parent to his sister, their broken mother, Maggie, takes up a lot of his time. Annabel falls to the wayside and becomes a ghost in their chaotic existence.

When Maggie flippantly hands her mother’s house over to Tobias, he sees an opportunity to learn how and why his family became so shattered. Be careful what you wish for. When his world begins to collapse from the weight of un-buried secrets, he focuses on a stranger from his parents’ past. Only by eliminating the past, he believes, can he make his family whole again.

The Reasons won the Muskoka Novel Marathon’s 2008 BEST ADULT NOVEL AWARD.
