Reviews

I am thrilled to be a winner in the 76th Annual Writer's Digest Writing Competition in the memoir/personal essay category for My Memory Box. I hope you will download the essay and email me your honest feedback.

A 2007 National Writer's Association award recipient for my book proposal for my memoir, I encourage you 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 [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."

 


On My Nightstand
 
I am always reading multiple books at a time. Here's a glimpse at what I'm reading now.
 
Reading Memoirs:

Blindsided

Lifting a Life Above Illness

By Richard Cohen

I tried to stick with this story but after this sentence, "I marveled at my own inner strength" I gave up. Cohen has survived many battles, but he has not yet conquered his own self-righteousness.

 

Reading other Nonfiction:

What Would Wonder Woman Do

By Jennifer Traig and Suzan Colon

I worshiped Wonder Woman as a child so I couldn't resist reading this entertaining book about women in the work force. What would Wonder Woman do indeed!

 
Reading Fiction:

Scarlett

By Alexandra Ripley

This sequel to GWTW is almost as enchanting as Margaret Mitchell's original tale. Though the locations change, the characters of Scarlett and Rhett remain intact.

 
Reading about Writing:

Blogging for Dummies

By Susannah Gardner and Shane Birley

Even though this book is written for beginning bloggers, I found it very helpful. For example, I had never heard of Tumblr or Goodreads until I read this book.
