A Year of Writing Dangerously an interview with Barbara Abercrombie
I was fortunate to get a chance to read Barbara Abercrombie’s latest release A YEAR OF LIVING DANGEROUSLY: 365 Days of Inspiration and Encouragement. It’s full of tips, anecdotes, quotes and more to help you get that book written and stay inspired throughout the process. You can read her interview and get a taste of her advice here.

A title at last…
Finally my work in progress (due out spring 2013) has a title. I’ve been calling it “Hot Under Pressure”. It’s about Hannah Olaniyi and Amal Harper, a new attorney and her playboy client and their fight against a powerful family and their own strong desire. They’ve been a lot of fun to write about. I’ll tell you more as we get closer to their release date. But for now the book will officially be known as PERFECT MATCH. I’m reviewing the back cover copy so I can tell you the tagline is: They’re perfect for each other…they just don’t know it yet. Image courtesy of 123RF
