And speaking of author spotlights, I'm doing something a
little different this month. If you've visited my website since
mid-March, you'll know that my very good friend and all around support
and encourager received "The Call" on March 13. So, in her honor,
I've departed from my normal format and am asking her to appear in the
spotlight this month and provide a few insights on how this has affected
her life so far. To read all about it, click on over to my
Author VIP page.
And finally, I've updated my
Chit-Chat page with a few notes about what's been going on in my
life.
[3/15/07] YAHOOOOO!! I'm so excited I can
hardly stand it. Connie Cox--one of my best friends in the whole
world, the lady who alternately gave me kicks in the rear and
muse-inspiring pep talks when I thought I'd never be published, and a
very wonderful, talented writer--just made her first sale. The
call came for her on 3/13 and I haven't been able to stop smiling since.
Her book will be published by Avalon and is tentatively scheduled for a
February 2008 release. Here is a picture of the two of us
celebrating the day after the call came. To learn more about
Connie and her road to publication, you can visit her site at
http://www.conniecox.net.
[3/1/07] This month's interview is with author
Lori Wilde. Learn more about this exuberant and very talented
author by clicking on over to my Spotlight page.
I've begun making plans for the conferences and other
writer events I'll be attending in 2007. In addition to the "just
for fun" trips I'll be taking, I've been invited to speak at two major
writers conferences. For more details, visit my
Events Page.
And if you're interested in what's been going on in my
life lately, you can visit my newly updated
Chit-Chat Page.
