A fellow writer recently sent me this photo of his newborn calf, a Saler-Hereford.
SO cute! Look at all that curly hair, and a face any mother could love!
How does this tie in with today being RELEASE DAY for Kiss Me Once Again? Very clearly.
Sending a story into the world after such a long process of drafting, writing, editing, re-editing, re-re-editing (you get the picture) shares several parallels with birthing an infant.
But when that infant grows up, they’re out of your hands…well, actually quite a while before that point.
So off you go, Kiss Me Once Again, my first World War II novella…out into the cold, but hopefully not cruel world. It’s been joy-laced hard work to bring you to this moment. May you touch hearts and faithfully reveal the incredible era of World War II.
My publisher tells me this novella debuted at #56 on Amazon’s Hot New Releases chart in the World War II Historical Fiction category.
Reviews
Kiss Me Once Again is a sweet novella that will make you feel like you are in the WWII era. I loved how Gail crafted Glenora, I could really feel her tough exterior filled with grease and less-than feminine features, but she also captured “Glen’s” tender interior. Hank is everything you want to read in a 1940’s hero. Affected by war, yet lacking confidence due to everything he’s been through. It’s a novella, so it’s a quick read. I definitely recommend!
“Kiss Me Once Again is a heartwarming story of love, sacrifice, dreams deferred, faith and family. I always appreciate the historical research that underlies author Kittleson’s stories.”

Congratulations, Gail!
Thanks so much…you now how this feels!
It sounds like you “baby” has gotten a good start. Congratulations and the best of wishes that it will bless hearts and accomplish what you desire. I have yet to put a book out there, but I’ve written many published articles so I know a bit of the feeling.
I will definitely check it out as well!

Thank you so much, Jackie.
PS: As a young teen I wrote a WW 2, Pearl Harbor short story (from a wounded and delirious soldier’s POV) involving a nurse named Lenora. Thanks for reminding me of it with your Glenora. 🙂
(: You never know, maybe that story could have a second chance!
