I’m interviewing a special author tomorrow. A few hints: After several short stories, she wrote her debut novel to rave reviews. I would categorize her novel as historical fiction. She graduated from Harvard. Give up? Alright, alright I’ll give—it’s the wonderful Dolen Perkins-Valdez! Find out tomorrow how hard it was to write her debut [...] Today the lovely Lori L. Tharps is here to discuss her debut novel, Substitute Me. The book was inspired by Lori’s fruitless search for a nanny in New York City after the birth of her first son. The book follows the tale of Zora Anderson, a 30-year-old African American middle class, college educated woman, trained [...] Hey guys, my last stop on this wonderful blog tour will be over at Shon Bacon’s blog, ChickLitGurrl. Shon is an author advocate and does so much to help women writers promote their books. To read the interview, click here. [...] I suffer from sickle-cell anemia. I say suffer because if anyone knows anyone that has this disease, or is in anyway familiar with it—then they know that suffering is what it is. For those of you who don’t know what sickle cell is, it is an inherited form of anemia — a condition [...] I am cruising along in my revisions of my next novel. It’s hard to juggle both—writing a novel while you promote another—but no complaints here, ‘tis the life of a writer. How many revisions do I tackle in my novels? This is my first and I like to have at least three under my belt [...] My poor, poor neglected novel. I promise I’ll get back to you soon. What’s that? I’m forgetting about my characters? Never! I told you once Unbeweaveable has a proper send out I’ll get back to you. I promise. Have I lied to you before? I have? Well, still…I’ll get back to you. I [...] So it’s out. My second novel, Unbeweaveable is in stores and I’m surprisingly calm about the whole thing. With my first book Six O’clock, I lost sleep and went a little crazy worrying over how well the book would do. I promised myself, (and my hubby) that I wouldn’t do it this time around. [...] So as I promised yesterday, I am interviewing the lovely Trisha R. Thomas today! Trisha is the author of seven novels, and her first novel in her Nappily series, Nappily Ever After, is being made into a feature film starring the beautiful Halle Berry. Her latest entry in the juicy Nappily series is Un-Nappily [...] |
I’m a Women’s Fiction writer with two novels under my belt, Six O’clock and Unbeweaveable. Curl Up and Write is where I fuse my two loves: hair and writing. You’d be surprised at the similarities! When I’m not writing, I’m watching How’s It Made with my Hubby (and pretending I’m not interested in learning how a tennis racket is built), or I’m reading to my daughter. I also dabble in gardening, love to cook, and watch way too much HGTV.  |
