A couple of Sundays ago, a good friend of mine, Missy hosted a booksigning party for me at a nearby country club. Only Missy wasn't able to be there as one of her little ones had been diagnosed with the swine flu the day before. The champagne luncheon went on, on a beautiful, sunny day, and my friends and family came out to celebrate.

And last Saturday I was signing books at my local Barnes & Noble in Southlake with fellow authors Bettina Restrepo and Karen Ferrell. It was an Educator's Tea and we had a fabulous turnout. We all sold out of our stacks and they had to scramble and get more books off the shelves. Always a good thing.

There's a wonderful review of The Stolen One over at Alaine: Queen of Happy Endings:

Her review by the way, is based on the audio which she said is brilliant. I've only heard snippets of the audio, can't wait to listen to the whole thing.

And speaking of audios, I was flipping through my November subscription copy of Vanity Fair and on page 149 there is a feature of Lily Rabe who did the audio for my first book, The Very Ordered Existence of Merilee Marvelous. Lily is the daughter of Jill Clayburgh and playwright David Rabe.
