Welcome back

 Just here getting ready to come out of a two year "Covid19" break. Isn't that a good feeling to get back to somewhat "normalcy!" I got a phone call today from a new publisher company...my thoughts, "ok maybe" I will try again.

The book was easy to write, compared to selling the book.

Lesson learned. 

Just wanted to say hi!
A report on a Makah Poet.
A young man will be hitting the road with his bags packed. I'm happy for him. ..read several articles on him in Port Angeles newspaper.
Hope you are doing well!

The story of an author?

It's very hard writing a book!
But the Marketing is so much more work.

I've sold over 4,000 copies.
I would like to say, "Thank you to the people that have supported me; by purchasing a book!"

New Book

Michael Smith was impersonating Joseph TaHayYasib Miller. With the Tamanawis power Michael took every essential characteristic that defined Joseph. Michael was going to kill Joseph and take over his life.

In doing so Nicolai Vain would be resurrected along with his side kick Shane Phillips.

They would make their way into all four corners of the world.

Nicolai Vain would incline in physical strength.

He also would have great influence throughout the world.

With Nicolai, Shane, Joseph and the swirling spirit wolf heads would rule the world.

Nicolai hid in a convenient place on the Cape Flattery Bluffs; a bentwood box. Within that box was the spiritual form of the FOUR WINDS. If opened? A swirling spirit of intellectually sacred wolf heads would be revealed. The wolf heads would separate into a wide range to the East, spreading out to the West, dispersing to the North and spreading to the South; the four corners of the world.

If this happens, God help us all. The world would not be the same.

Will that bentwood box open or will God be with the Makah people once again?

So here it is; I’ve been monitoring and running four different sights involving Neah Bay, WA.

If you would like to see the other sights I’ve been creating. Please visit Facebook.com/1neahbay and on Twitter Neah Bay Chamber.

The Facebook address to this blog will be added today (a link).

With that said, “I’m going to make time to write again. I’m putting my priorities in order.”

I’m going to write a “Sequel” to Joseph and the Tamanawis Spirit.

If it sounds like I’m writing to myself, yes that is the case.

Have a great day, and yes be blessed.

God is my refuge and peace in life; “I once was lost but know I’m found!”

make a request

Wow!

14,000 plus people have had some interest in Joseph and the Tamanawis Spirit!

It would truly help sales; if all 14,000 plus got on Amazon.com and/or went to Barnes and Noble book stores; and asked to get my book into the stores.

It's nice to "SHARE" your already purchased book...But it would be better to get your family and/or friends to purchase one.

Just hopeful.

Good Night!

Makah Day weekend

     My day could be better. Meaning, I'm at home sick, and it's Makah Day weekend.
The highlight of the weekend is that my granddaughter Raelyn Rose Lawrence was crowned Makah Day baby Queen.
     It seems that my eldest granddaughter Destiny Jean Lawrence was just crowned. Hard to believe it was two years ago.
     Time! Where has it gone?
Any way I'm blessed and hope everyone is safe.
~Dawn~

I'm thinking about writing again...

Well should I do a sequel or just venture off and do a different story?

Please comment....I would like to hear your comments about this matter.

Update!

Fishing season is here in Neah Bay, WA!
My husband got a new job (GM for the Fishermen's Cooperative).
So, that means I have to run Big Salmon Fishing Resort. He comes into Big Salmon Resort, to make sure everything is running smoothly. :)

My books are for sale at Big Salmon Fishing Resort, Washburn's Store, Raven's Corner and Makah Museum. I think you can still order them through Amazon and/or the Tate's Publishing Co.

A little bit about my personal life;
My grandson Anthony Beau Lawrence Jr. was born! And he is a healthy baby boy, with a great personality already.
Raelyn turned 2 years old! She is learning so much daily...she loves her PaPa Joey.
Destiny is NOW four (4) years old and just danced in a Ballet Recital yesterday.

I sold over 4,000 books and I'm GOING to write a second book this winter.

Some very important people in my life have pasted away (died). I'm a tad bit sad, and blame that for not writing. Recently, I've been READING! You know how I feel! At this time in my life I'm escaping from reality through reading a book. Two books I would recommend: Relapse by Jake Anderson & Broken parts missing pieces by Don Johnson. Both these authors are family members....(blood & through marriage).

But most importantly I found my way back to God! And I've never been more happy...He is good!

IT'S WORKING!

It's working again!
I wasn't able to post on here for a VERY LONG TIME.
So please come back to check in once and awhile.
I'm glad to be back on here.
This winter I hope to get some writing done.
Thank you for your continued support, and tell a friend to purchase the book.

Snowing and I'm Slowing Down :)

It's snowing! And I'm at Portland, OR helping my husband with the Sportsmen's Show. We're very blessed; these two little ladies are my granddaughters. And now we have a grandson, Baby Beau. I would rather be home helping out with these babies of ours. I'm on a different schedule with Big Salmon Fishing Resort although if you would like a book reading party call me at 360-640-9227 it will cost $1,200.00. With some books included, depending upon how large the group is at the event.
Be Blessed!

New Year and New Chapter

So, I haven't heard much feedback.

I went to church in LaPush, WA for the New Year hour, yesterday. I was sitting with the Pastor of the church while we took a break to eat a meal and fellowship.
He asked me, "So, What is involved in a second edition?"
 I told him, "I can add more wording to each chapter, or I can just add a chapter to the end of the book."
We sat and visited each other will eating fried bread, chips, and spaghetti in the church kitchen.
I shared with him, "I'm going to add a chapter at the end, beings I think it's going to be the easy course."
Then I asked him, "So are you going to write your story?"
That would be a book to read, The Kallappa Story, I'm going to be standing in a long line to purchase that book!
His wife (Rita) said while patting his forearm, "He is a great writer, and I'm sure he can do that."
I would help him publish that book.

So back to our conversation the Pastor and I were having. I told M. George Kallappa, "I'm not having much luck with coming up with more to add yet." So he replied, "God will give it to you."

Happy New Year and New Chapter in 2014!

Second Edition!

A second edition can include a new cover, updates to chapters (up to 10,000 words), additional chapters (as long as it stays within 10,000 words), or all of the above!

A second edition can breathe new life into a book. It gets a new ISBN number and a new release date, which gives us a reason to reintroduce the book to distribution and to the media. Far more importantly, however, is that it gives you a chance to hit the reset button on building an audience.

Listed above is an Email message sent to me by my Marketing Agent. Please give me some feedback so that I can either add a new chapter or just add to each chapter. What would you like to see?

In my book you read about, HOOKY BOBBING.
Well, today we can "Hooky Bob!"
Because that white blanket has been laid down by God!

Great Sales!

I have to thank the Mason County and Thurston County for being so helpful!

The Squaxin Island tribe has invited me to their museum for readings. The casino invites me back every year for their Christmas Bazaar.

The Nisqually tribe hosted a book reading at their library.

And I've done one book reading in Olympia.

The Christmas Bazaar was a success!

And I was invited to attend an event at the Evergreen College. Evergreen College's "Annual holiday art fair", Friday December 13 and Saturday December 14, 11AM-5PM both days in the Longhouse at The Evergreen State College.

Like I've said before, "I'm so lucky to learn so much along the way. As I venture out with my book; I'm blessed to meet so many interesting people."

P.S. You can now purchase, Joseph and the Tamanawis Spirit, at the Northwest Native Expressions in Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe.

SORRY!

I apologize to you if you went to the scheduled Book Reading!

My marketing person through Tate's Publishing made arrangements for the reading.

Well after doing so; the Fusion Coffee House & Bistro went out of business.

Fusion Coffee House & Bistro didn't remember to notify Tate's Publishing Co.

Truly I'm sorry.
