Blog postI have been so busy with Christmas and the New Year, and for some reason...I haven't had the chance to come and let everyone know about the wonderful new multi-author series that I'm a part of - and that is being released right away!
With the other authors of the Sweet Americana Sweethearts blog, we have put together a heartwarming series about a grandmother, and her legacy.

Blog postWell, I realize I haven't been good at keeping the blog updated, but I do always try to make sure I post when I have a new release or anything else going on :) Things have been very busy in my world, between writing this book, another book that releases in January as part of a Top Secret Group Project...and then all of the things getting ready for Christmas around my house!

Blog postI have a new book that was just released today, and I am so excited about this one because of the story behind it!
A few weeks ago, I asked if anyone in my Facebook Fan Group would be interested in working on a group book project of some kind. I didn't have the details all figured out, but I thought it would be so much fun to get ideas from others, and let them have a bit of a peek into the workings of writing a book.

Blog postA Brand New Series for Kay P. Dawson FansI'm very excited to let you know about a new series I've been working on! The first book has been released today (and I will tell you about it and how to get it below...), and the second book is already in the works.
It's a bit of a different book for book 2...it's actually being plotted and set up by members of my fan group! It's been so fun to come up with ideas and share the fun of planning this story - and as I go through writi2 years ago Read more -
Blog postI’ve been sharing a few books by other authors on my Facebook page who I believe my readers would enjoy. After speaking with my mom today, I realized that she might not be the only one who isn’t sure how to follow authors, or to know when a new release comes out. Some of the books I’ve shared are a later book in a series, but she said she’d like to read from the beginning - but wasn’t sure how to find their earlier books.
So - this post today is for anyone else who would2 years ago Read more -
Blog postI have just released my 3rd book in the Oregon Sky series - "Ella's Embrace". It has taken awhile to finish this one, with end of school year activities and other summer events taking over some of my time.

Blog postOregon City would mark the end of the journey for some of the emigrants. But, others would have started to branch off before reaching that far, while others would continue to branch out from there, finding their own claims to settle.
It will have taken the wagons between 4 - 6 months to get here, traveling anywhere around 15 miles each day.

Blog postThree Island Crossing was named that because there are 3 small outcroppings of land, or “islands” that the settlers would use to help them cross the Snake River. They would go through each stretch of river, using the small islands as “hopping” points to get across easier.
If the water was too high, the emigrants were forced to stay on the south alternate route, but when they could, even with the risks involved with a river crossing, they would choose to cross to t2 years ago Read more -
Blog postSign located at the spot where the emigrants would have come across the ice slough.
As the emigrants made there way west, crossing the Sweetwater River several times, they came across a slough that offered them a wonderful treat.
A couple of feet under the boggy marsh, they could find ice that stayed frozen even into the hot summer. They would camp by the slough and fill up water barrels, some would make cold treats to drink, like lemonade or mint julep.

Blog postIndependence Rock was a welcome sight to the emigrants. They wanted to arrive at the rock around the 4th of July in order to know they were on track and making good time - letting them know they would be through the mountains before the winter cold had set in.
Arriving at the rock usually ended with celebrating - after weeks on the trail, it was a place to have some fun. Many wagon train outfits would celebrate with music from fiddles brought from home, danc2 years ago Read more -
Blog postMany lives were lost along the Oregon Trail, some left in makeshift graves along the way. Families would have to bury loved ones, then continue on moving without having any time to grieve the loss - leaving them in unmarked graves along the trail.
To me, it is unimaginable to think of having to bury a child, or a parent, a spouse or a friend under conditions like that. But, that was the life on the trail. They didn’t have time to stay and dwell on the loss.2 years ago Read more -
Blog postFort Laramie- After being used a a fur trading post for years, the United States Army took over the operation of Fort Laramie to help protect the many emigrants who were coming across in wagon trains over the Oregon Trail. It was used as a supply outpost to restock the wagons heading west.
Even though many people believe the biggest threat to the wagons heading west were the Native Tribes they would run into along the way, but in truth, relations between the white2 years ago Read more -
Blog postChimney Rock was a picturesque landmark for the settlers to see as they made their way along the Oregon Trail. Seeing it meant they were near the end of the prairies, and the trail would become more difficult as they went further west towards the Rocky Mountains.
Today, it is almost 300 feet above the North Platte River valley, with the peak of Chimney Rock standing 4,226 feet above sea level. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimney_Rock_National_Historic_Sit2 years ago Read more -
Blog postIndependence, Missouri - For many settlers, this was the jumping off point for them to head west. It was one of the starting points for the Oregon Trail.
As I did my research for the book I was writing, I read many accounts from journals of those who had made the journey. My heart broke as I read about some of them having to say good-bye to families left behind, often knowing they would likely never see them again. It’s hard to imagine the heartbreak they endured.2 years ago Read more -

Blog postI have been hard at work writing the first book for my new series, “Oregon Sky”. Book one takes place on the Oregon Trail - so I have been reading, researching and reading some more about everything I can get my hands on relating to the Oregon Trail.
I have learned so much, and have had so much fun with this book. The stories I read from emigrants following the trail were so eye-opening, and hard to believe the hardships they endured.

Blog postYou might notice that things look a little different here on my blog...and that it is kind of empty.
Well, thanks to the hackers on the internet who decided to mess my site up - and my hosting company not being willing to help me clean it up, (when it was on their server that I got hacked) - I decided to just move everything and start over.
So, for now things look a bit bland here while I try to remember what all I had on my original site.

I am a new indie author in the public eye. However, I have been writing for many years, ghostwriting or under other pseudonyms. So I feel confident in my writing, even as I also know I will continue to grow and learn the more books I publish.
