In celebration of Labor Day here in the United States, I’m sharing a post by fellow blogger Patty Fletcher in which she offers a glimpse into her life as an author. It’s not as glamorous an occupation as you might think, and it doesn’t always pay well, but it’s a labor of love.

My laughter rang out long and loud. The email stated, “Service at PayPal® You’ve received a direct deposit from Amazon®.” When I opened it to see my royalty payment, I laughed even harder. I’d made a whole dollar.

New! The Red Dress
Copyright July 2019 by DLD Books
When Eve went to her high school senior prom, she wore a red dress that her mother had made for her. That night, after dancing with the boy of her dreams, she caught him in the act with her best friend. Months later, Eve, a freshman in college, is bullied into giving the dress to her roommate. After her mother finds out, their relationship is never the same again.
Twenty-five years later, Eve, a bestselling author, is happily married with three children. Although her mother suffers from dementia, she still remembers, and Eve still harbors the guilt for giving the dress away. When she receives a Facebook friend request from her old college roommate and an invitation to her twenty-five-year high school class reunion, then meets her former best friend by chance, she must confront the past in order to face the future.

LOL. I think that dollar was gone before it ever got here. Probably went for a ride on the bus. LOL.
