Fran

I am an avid reader, enjoying most genres. My favorite reads are mostly historical fiction and mystery/ crime novels. However, 'My Favorites' shelf shows a fair sampling of everything I read.

I have chosen the stacked books avatar to represent me as I journey on my adventure to read 50 books this year. Last year I reached that goal... more »

    Thanks Fran, I have posted my books. I will post a synopsis for "The Bluegrass Dream" the first day of April. I will have my ISBN number at the end. Thanks for your help and if you need someone after August I would be glad to do "Natchez Above the River" or my new one that should be out by then, "Four Long Years."

    I see in the discussion "getting to know you" we have some things in common. All of us girls were in the 4H. I was the sewing county champion one year and was asked to be in the "Ky Style Show" at UK . It was a fun week. I do all kinds of neddle work. I am into piecing quilts but I have them quilted. I am working on three right now when I watch TV.

    I have a goal to complete all of the projects that I have started in the next couple of years. I weave baskets. It had been eight years since I had made one. Two years ago I took what supplies I had here to the Lake and made several that summer. I plan to make baskets in the summer until my supplies are gone.

    Have a Great Week!

    Fran, Could you give me some information on what I need to do. Do I post a synopsis or why I chose to write a novel about KY. Since there is another discussion for March would you rather that I do it in April. Any time is good for me. I assume you would like "The Bluegrass Dream" which is about early KY rather than "Natchez Above The River" which is a Civil War novel. Thank you, Ruth T.

    Dear Fran, I received your request to discuss my book in March. And I responded thanking you and asking what I needed to do. This is all new to me. I had not heard anything. I see there is another discussion for March so I tried to find my responce on your posts. I don't see it. I assume I did something wrong and it did not post. I will be glad to do it any time. April, May June are good. I am very sorry for the mix-up. Ruth T.

    "I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities."

    March would be excellent. I'm moving right now - a colossal pain - and I just sold my third novel to Penguin so I'm on a deadline. I'll read the posts you suggested and figure it out. Thanks so much.

    We are Storycasting.com, the premier "fantasy casting" website. We have a few Sue Graftons, a bunch of Barbara Kingsolver titles, and maybe a few of the others, but I think we're still under-representing this group of authors. Could you take a look at our site, and then give me a list of authors you think ought to be on? Maybe you know a few who would like a little free internet buzz, as well - we do a lot of rising authors.

    Please let me know how we can serve your audience better!
