VBT Day 14 – Hanging out with Connie Briscoe
Thursday, June 19th, 2008 Leave a Comment »

Hi Everyone:

There are a lot of emotions racing through me this morning. I’m spending the day with one of the best, New York Times author, Connie Briscoe.

Connie has written both fiction and nonfiction and her titles have hit most of the major bestseller lists including the New York Times and Essence magazine. She’s always humble when she says s “I’m still trying to figure it all out.” Well, I can explain it for her – she’s a darn good author. Anyway, she’s got this really cool blog and hares what she knows about writing and promoting books.

Thanks Connie for being a true professional and a great icon in the literary world.

Have a great day!!!

Until next time, stay well and be blessed.

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008 One Lonely Comment »

Good Morning:

Hope you got through Monday okay??

All right, today’s stop is over at Bloggin’ bout Books. Hey, it’s not one of the best reviews I’ve every gotten, but it’s the honest opinion of the reviewer. The world could certainly use a little more honesty these days, don’t you think? Perhaps one day I’ll write a romance that will make her swoon – LOL!!!

Hope you have a gret day!!

Until next time – stay well and be blessed.

VBT Day 10 – It’s Been A Great Weekend
Sunday, June 15th, 2008 One Lonely Comment »

Hi Everyone:

The last couple of days have been hectic, but fun!!

Hope you can join me today over at Romancing the Blog. I think you’ll enjoy the post on the ‘too touchy topic’ issues. The discussion is going strong, so hop over and check it out.

This just in: the lastest review for When A Man Loves A Woman over at eHARLEQUIN.com. Thanks to my Shelfari buddy, Tiffany for the wonderful post.

Saturday, June 14, 2008 was such a special day. I had the wonderful opportunity to sign with my author mentor, Beverly Jenkins at Borders in Emeryville, CA. To say the signing was a huge success is an understatment. We sold out!!! Not only that, I received three invitations from local book clubs in the Bay Area to be their feature author and discussed When A Man Loves A Woman. How cool its that??

Okay, it’s Father’s Day and there’s a very special man living with me who deserves my attention – hubby of twenty-four years, Colin.

And to all the wonderful fathers out there, Happy Father’s Day to each of you.

Have a great day and I’ll see you tommorow.

Until then – stay well and be blessed!!
