I just posted the final part of my book, Daring to Hope. It is the sequel to Standing Up to Life, and the second of the three book trilogy. I hope you all have enjoyed the book as I have posted it this week, and I look forward to your thoughts on the third book this summer! :-) Thank you all for the comments, I really do appreciate them!

In many ways Tiffany is the newest girl in her small community near Albuquerque, New Mexico. In the whirlwind of the last few weeks she has emerged from the shell of a scared and confused little boy named Brandon. Ever since Tiffany's parents confirmed with her their suspicions of her deepest wants and needs, they've supported her completely. With solid support from her family, her best friend and family and surprisingly, her growing circle of other friends it seems she might have a chance for a successful future.
'Can all this last?' is one of the biggest questions on her mind now. 'Will everyone stick with me when things get tough?' She's had an amazingly easy last couple weeks and she knows it won't last. What will happen when she returns to school? And most importantly, what will her psychiatrist decide? Will her doctor force her to return to living the lie as Brandon? These fears and more whirl in her mind as she looks to an uncertain future.
Daring to Hope is the continuing story of a bright, talented, and beautiful girl, who dares to hope for a future that is one based on happy dreams.

I posted the final part for my novel Standing Up to Life a little bit ago, I hope you all have enjoyed reading it!

-Tiffany Shar :-)
Brandon is a bright boy growing up near Albuquerque, New Mexico. He likes school, soccer, computer games, and playing in the school band. Small for his age and youngest in his class, his size has made him the target of every school bully for years. Each year the verbal and physical abuse increases, finally wearing him down to the point he doesn't know if he can continue. Just as he reaches the end of his rope, he is suddenly befriended by a classmate he least expected. As their friendship grows and deepens, Brandon learns the value of a best friend and finds himself moving down a road he never expected. Over the course of the school year, his friend helps him discover and cope with his feelings, hopes, dreams - and fears.
This is the story of a young person's unusual journey to stand up to the numerous obstacles that life has dealt him - and to become the person he believes himself to be. (Part 6 of 6)
I just posted Part 5 of my novel, Standing Up to Life. I will be posting the final part, Part 6, tomorrow night sometime. Just thought I'd put the word out there in case it gets buried in a flood of entries tonight :-). Thanks for reading!

For those who have not just gone ahead and purchased the download, Tiffany has posted part three of her wonderful book. Unfortunately it appeared so far down the list that many of her fans may miss it.
Never fear, however! She told me a few days ago she was going to try to post a segment every day. It's just not possible to do it faster for a number of reasons.
