I'm finally releasing a book with a (small) guaranteed audience. How cool is that? I've led Bible studies in Revelation several times, photocopying pages of questions for our group of ladies at church. And now they've asked me to do it again, which is great (I LOVE Revelation). But the new photocopier is more complicated, and we're having hybrid (half zoom, half in person) meetings, so knowing how many copies to make and how many to email instead just felt like a pain. Plus I might be out of town when some of the studies take place. So... at last I've put the studies all together into a book, coming soon on Amazon. And my guaranteed audience is the wonderful ladies in our Bible Study Group.

Here's the blurb from the back cover:

Do you love Revelation or hate it?
Is it all about heaven or all about hell?
Is it all about monsters or all about people?
Is it all about the future or the past
or the present perhaps?

Is it a book full of scary pictures
and warnings of the end of the world, 
or hopeful promises to help 
in the present day?

Are you ready to find out?

Join readers everywhere for 20 hour-long studies and join John 
in the Temple of God’s Presence,
because the voice said,

“Come up here.”
“Come, Lord Jesus,” say the people. And,
“Surely I am coming soon,” says the Lord.

What if you're not who you thought you were?
What if no one will accept who you really are?
What if you finally get the chance to make them pay?

David is quite sure he knows who he is, and sure his mother is alive, even if he has just read her obituary... while talking to her on the phone. So something's not real. Imaginary numbers of somethings aren't real, or at least, aren't quite who or what David thought they were. And perhaps he'll have to love himself before he can work it all out and love somebody else.

Find it on Amazon at ​https://www.amazon.com/Imaginary-Numbers-Mathemafiction-Sheila-Deeth/dp/1949600564/

And watch for the sequel in Book 5. (Of course, I'll have to get the story out of my head and onto the computer first...)

It was going to be released in June, then July, then... but at last...

It's Here!!!!!

Wind and Snow 

a Triptych of Triptychs, offering three Western-themed stories of strong women in a dangerous world, three poems depicting wind's freedom and cruelty, and three dypstopian tales of a globally warmed "snow" world. Enjoy, just in time for Christmas!

Meanwhile the Writers' Mill is about to release it's newest anthology too. Watch this space. The snow stories will be featured there as well.

In 2018, I lost two publishers and learned a wealth of new skills. My Five-Minute Bible-Story series is now being rereleased with Inspired by Faith & Science, an imprint of Ink-Filled Stories, who have also rereleased my Mathemafiction novels. Meanwhile Amazon closed Createspace and my self-published books were rereleased with KDP. I suppose that makes this the year of the rerelease. A Nose for Adventure is still in the upcoming list with Linkville Press, so maybe it will be released in 2019. Meanwhile, here's a picture of my newly republished books, and one of me at the Oregon Historical Society Holiday Cheer event. Enjoy! And Happy Christmas!

Subtraction has been released. It looks wonderful. I'm so proud of it, and I really hope you'll read it. Three Mathemafiction novels from Indigo Sea Press complete the "Divide by Zero" cycle, and now I'm working on book four, Imaginary Numbers, which heads in a whole new direction. But why not enjoy those first three novels, experience guilt and forgiveness, replace despair with hope, and take a "Subtraction" road trip... with cats!

Then there are those Tales of Mystery. A Nose for Adventure has just completed two rounds of editing with Linkville Press and should soon be released on the unsuspecting world. See the world through the eyes of an adventurous little chihuahua and chase your tail while reading these tales!

Finally, those Five-Minute Bible Stories have grown to fill twelve books! I could turn them into a book a month club perhaps. The latest, Paul's Purpose, has just been released by Cape Arago Press and it looks great. I can't wait to see it in print. But which stories should I write next?

With thanks to JEAN, I've entered the Amazon Storyteller contest with three new releases,

Elijah's Children
Rose on the Vine (with special thanks to ELSIE, who kept telling me to publish my Beige Room stories) and
Nalya's Sunset

I'd love some ratings and reviews, not that I expect I have any hope of winning, but I'd like to try...
