I did it. I published a book.
The first e-book offering from little old me.

I blame it on the world. I am, like most writers filled with doubt about the publishing world- the book as we once knew it is probably changing forever. And along with that, is the way we acquire, market and buy both the author and the book.
So what’s a girl to do? Give up her dream?…
I say plenty of stupid things, so why don't I have a book deal yet?
You all remember this former lingerie model?
Write What You Know. Then Watch It.
Let’s face it. Writers are interesting people.

I remember stepping up and down on my stationary step in the living room of our East Bay condo trying to lose babyweight as the OJ fiasco played out.
