Great news, Readers!

THE LUCKY LADY IS DOUBLING DOWN!

If you don’t understand the term, in gambling, doubling down means to double the first bet. In life, it means to strengthen one’s commitment to a particular strategy or course of action, typically one that is risky. Since The Lucky Lady first five short stories sold well, I decided to write five more. These will be released one at a time, though.

To celebrate story 6’s release, I’m offering Story 1, The Big Gamble, free for a couple of weeks. If you haven’t tried the series, this is the time to do it.

Best,

Kathy
