All Things Me
Knee deep in student essays and slightly brain addled and woozy from fragments and comma splices, I lean on the promo of all things me today as my blog. I'm sorry, but it's time, and I know you will forgive me and click liberally on all things more and more me as the blog goes on. Please spread the word to all of your 4 million friends and relatives. Thank you in advance for your delightful support of, yes, all things me.
1. The rest of my manuscripts not yet or ever published are on Kindle for your perusal. I know you would love to read my unpublished works. Good for breakfast, bedtime, and other small room reading.
2. A few of the same manuscripts are also on scribd.com. Even cheaper than the 2.99 on Kindle (i.e., free).
3. I am teaching a kick ass romance novel writing class starting July 7th for UCLA Extension. Summer quarter sign ups have already started, and I would love to see you there. Of course, it's online, but you know what I mean.
4. Pre-orders for the mass market version of Being With Him are also being happily accepted at a variety of online sources.
5. There is still time to sign up for Lost Coast Writing Retreat. This sounds pretty cool, though I am looking into buying a new sleeping bag because of it. I haven't been camping in about 10 years, and while I will be in a cabin, I know I am camping. They can't fool me.
I am sure there is more I should be promoting, but I've got to go back to the essays about the family. I'm hoping I will still know what one is when I emerge from the words.
Thank you for reading. And I mean that.

Thanks, Tom--
And thanks for commenting because it gave me on opportunity to stop working yet again! I am so into not working this morning, and shameless self promotion is really helping me achieve that! And I appreciate links, etc.
Let us promote some more.

Well -Hurrah for Me (You)
I loved hearing about all your writings, and places to find them.
And I'm off to investigate the romance novel writing class...especially since I may be living in Masindi, Uganda by then - without a car...and will desperately need to do something.
Thank you!
Wow--Uganda. Okay, then.
Wow--Uganda. Okay, then. Your setting issues with you new romance? Solved. "Alone, without a car, she struggles with her new life, until she meets . . . "
It's almost done already!

I love it...
My mind is swirling with ideas...who could she meet? Mohammed the embassy driver. James, the armed guard who protected her home at night. Jalil, the guard during day shift...or Ken the cook appointed to her. Hmmm...descriptions of these hunks are staggering.
What about all three? It's
What about all three? It's a trilogy!

Three are better than one.
Sounds like a plan. Would never have thought of a trilogy...Thanks!

The writers' retreat is still open! Cool.
About the trilogy idea...I thought you were going to say something like menage a quatre or something obvious like that. You two sound like you could team up!
