On January 4, 2012, I took the biggest jump of my life and became an Indie Author with publication of my first book, “The Color of Dawn”.  Since then, I’ve published four additional books, and three singles through Kindle Direct Publishing and have began making my work available through Smashwords.com and CreateSpace.com.

Best-seller, “The Color of Dawn”  A collection of poems by Amber Jerome-Norrgard, covering such topics as life, love, loss, healing and redemption.

What readers are saying:

“Amber’s poetry touches on loss but from a place of love and gain.” ~Craig Stone, author of The Squirrel that Dreamt of Madness and Life Knocks.

“Amber risks much in sharing her poetic mindset with us in collected form… Displays her raw honesty in the writing, along with a playfulness… Her singular voice, mingled with the rhyme, entwine to beat out a steady, natural cadence.” ~Justin Bog, author of Sandcastle and Other Stories

Best-seller, “4 a.m.: A Collection” A collection of essays and poems by a chronic insomniac covering topics such as life, love, marriage, parenthood, pregnancy, infertility, loss, grief, and healing.

What readers are saying:

“Amber Jerome Norrgard opens her life and her soul in this collection that is both funny and heartbreaking. She is completely honest about her struggles with infertility, medical problems, and a devastating miscarriage. While she deals with some heavy topics, 4:00 AM is also filled with humor and hope. This is the story of a woman who is a survivor. An incredibly strong woman whose love for her family keeps her going despite the tough hand life has dealt her.” ~M.E. Franco, author of Where will you run (The Dion Series)

“She is raw in her execution, without fear. You do not have to be a woman to understand her pain; you must only be human.” ~Ben Ditmars, author of Night Poems.

Best-seller, “In the Gloaming: A Poetry Collection”: Amber Jerome~Norrgard’s second collection of poetry, written bare and wide-open about her experiences with life, loss, love, and true friendship.

What readers are saying:

“Her writing speaks directly to the experiences we all share as we grow and move through life. Amber is able to express through her poetry these experiences in ways that will move and connect with all of us.” ~John Eger

” Typically honest, open, soulful, pained, and hopeful, this collection of poems is a snapshot of a creative communicator in transition; the portrait of a human being re-booting, learning, growing, loving, and figuring out that she has so much to offer the world — and that it has so much to offer her.” ~Scott Morgan, author of Short Stack and Tryptic.

“The Allegory of Dusk”: Life most definitely is not fair, and at times, it is harsh. What happens when the worst occurs in our life— when there’s no guarantee of redemption or of hope? When there is no ending in sight to what we go through when the bottom has dropped out? When everything we’ve hoped for, everything we have planned for has been ripped away painfully? “The Allegory of Dusk” is an examination of the reality of life at its most painful and damaged.
