[Editor's Npte: I received this through a promotion, but as it's free today, thought somebody else might like to read it. The woman who wrote it is Vicki Johnson (not our Silver City VJ), with pen name of Georgia Monroe. I talked to her - nice lady!] 

On Thursday, January 8, you can download THE SECRET NOTECARD, (pen name is Georgia Monroe). The eBook will ALSO most likely be offered free on January 24. It is on Amazon.

The Secret Notecard follows a woman who discovers a note left behind by her late father — a quiet war hero — and sets out on a journey that spans decades, landscapes, and generations. At its heart, it's a love story: for family, friends, romantic partners, community, country, and the people who shape us, and for the courage it takes to remember.

This is an independently published work — indie in both spirit and execution. From its emotionally layered plot to its unconventional pacing and formatting, the book reflects the freedom and intimacy of independent storytelling.

While the voice and story are entirely my own, I used AI-assisted tools to support the editing process, particularly for structural clarity and language refinement.

This novel is a semi-fictional memoir loosely based on my parents. My father was a recipient of the Distinguished Flying Cross. He was a navigator whose plane took on enemy fire while on a spy mission over the Sakhalin Island of Russia during the Cold War.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I'd be honored to share this story with you.
