or maybe not. All the same, I've got several irons in the fire. For one, I have a story that is being published in a new horror anthology in February of 2008 called From the Shadows. That's the name of the anthology, my story is called, Eleven. I think it turned out nicely and I'm anxious to see if horror fans will enjoy it. You can pre-order your copy now by going to http://www.triadpublishinggroup.com.
For my mystery fans out there, I'm still hard at work on the third Rona Shively story. Title to be announced soon!
I'm also still working on the women's self-esteem project, Reaching Higher Ground. I think I will have most of this finished by the end of the year. I had hoped for an earlier launch, however, things happen and sometimes you just have to adapt. ;)
In case you haven't been to my websites lately, I have recently updated all of them to include a link to my newest page for my short romance, Hearts and Flowers. Hearts and Flowers was published several months ago as an Amazon Short and I only recently started thinking that maybe I should have given it its own web page. The story is very sweet and so unlike me, but I think its heartwarming tone is just right for the season. If you get a chance, check it out at http://www.alittleromance.homestead.com. I've posted a sneak peek at the story in hopes of selling copies of the entire download for a whopping $.49 on Amazon Shorts!
All of this while battling the cold that will not die! I seem to have picked up the worst little case of congestion and sinus pressure in my brief history. Bear with me as I try to think clearly through the fog of antihistamines and headache medicine. I promise, once this sinus pressure eases up, I'll have something truly interesting to tell you.
Until next time...

My name is Rebecca Benston. I am the author of a mystery series, The Rona Shively Stories. The series currently includes six books: In the Wash, Under Lock and Key, Keeping the Faith, This Side Up, Now You See Me and Thy Will Be Done.
In addition to mystery, I have also written romance and some very mild horror. I'm focusing my efforts more on the spiritual side of life these days and hoping to infuse some of that into the Rona Shively series. I think it will be interesting to see what a little bit of faith can do for a wretch like Rona. If you're looking for a thinking woman's character, you've come to the right place!
I'm the mother of a beautiful little girl named Mya who inspires me on a daily, if not hourly basis. We live in Springfield, OH. When I'm not writing, I am usually working on women's empowerment projects and other things related to helping others become their best version of themselves. I enjoy helping others overcome the obstacles they face.
I'm an audiobook junkie and my favorite fiction authors are Lisa Scottoline, Janet Evanovich, and Sarah Strohmeyer. I'm inspired by them to write fiction that shows women as fiesty, fearless and fabulous individuals who can handle anything life throws their way. I also love to read anything inspirational and some of my favorite non-fiction authors include Beth Moore, Elizabeth Gilbert, Lisa Nichols, Joyce Meyer, Francis Chan and many others.
I have alot of ideas about how things are supposed to work and sometimes, I get a little opinionated here on the blog. What it all boils down to is that I want people to feel better for having read the things I write. I hope you will enjoy my offbeat sense of humor and my unique perspective on life, love, hope, and happiness.
