A 2007 National Writer's Association award recipient for my book proposal for Better off Bald, I encourage you to click here to read what one judge had to say about my book.
Best-selling author of Seven Figure Selling and WorkingMoms.Calm, Danielle Kennedy said, "This {Better off Bald, Chapter One} is so compelling. I was totally engaged. I felt like I was there with you and your sister all the way. You have a gift. Keep going. This is a story that must be told—such a strong voice."
I am always reading multiple books at a time. Here's a glimpse at what I'm reading now.
These 20 stories of "women's true-life tales of friendships that blew up, burned out, or faded away" made me feel better about the friends that I have lost in the past. The two stories that resonated the most with me were Ann Hood's "How I Lost Her" and Helen Schulman's "First in Her Class."
I bought this book as part of my EMAO experience. Jackie Warner's blunt style is exactly what I want in a trainer. Her food tips are excellent, and her power circuit training routines will kick your ass.
A woman on an airplane gave me this book; she said that I had to read it. When I finally sat down to read this novel (six years later), I finished it in two days. The complexity of the story, which includes three narratives, is impressive, but the heart of the plot and characters moved me to tears.
