- I'ts been 8 weeks since the launch of Dream Raider, we have had success on our own selling the book but had not heard at all from our publisher. Now not being a big player in the market we understood that we probably would not make it into the large retail chains. (That was explained to us when we signed up.)

- I'm going to take you back to Oct. 2nd, 2001 and experience a trip that had been planned 2 months prior. The timing was definitely wrong due to the destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers, but I had committed myself to three individuals and as a Canadian, I was not going to let them down.

- So there I am, standing on a street in Greenwich Village in the new outfit I finally found at Steinmart after searching all the malls and higher-end stores. I am looking in the window of Barnes & Noble at a poster with my picture and the announcement of the book event I was about to do in 10 minutes. We had forgotten to bring the digital camera (!) so my husband bought a ...
