Fire Horse Power

 I celebrate the Lunar New Year, and who can resist the Year of the Fire Horse!? My favorite way to celebrate is to attend the parade in Chinatown. 

A young girl watching the parade smiles as a dancing dragon performs in front of her.

Another way that I celebrate is to create a coupon to give readers a free download to some of my books. This year's coupon code is VV9XD, valid February 16-22, 2026, exclusively at Smashwords. Just go to my Smashwords author page and see if the book you want is available for free with this coupon.
