    In a moment of pique and frustration Virginia wrote an open letter to Oprah, and shared it with a few writer friends who are going through the same thing we are. Now the letter has started to go viral--getting a lot of repostings and inclusions in blogs, newsletters and on Facebook, so in case you hadn't seen it, we wanted to share our plight, the plight of many black authors with you, readers who have supported us all these years. http://twomindsfull.blogspot.com.

    In reality Oprah is just a metaphor--a name that might get this subject the attention it deserves. Because when you have a publication like Library Journal listing their 31 Best Books of 2009 http://ow.ly/HDU7 and the "genre" fiction list includes Street Lit --8 books but no category for contemporary African American writers, we are really in trouble.

    We are trying to encourage diversity in reading--we believe books should be windows, not just mirrors...

    Hi there!

    I see you have Lori Foster's THE WINSTON BROTHERS on your shelf and thought you'd be interested to know she has a brand new Winston story featured in a new anthology.

    First Time In Print - DOUBLE THE HEAT

    Sizzling all-new stories, including a brand new Winston novella from New York Times bestselling author Lori Foster.

    New York Times bestselling sensations Lori Foster and Deirdre Martin and USA Today bestselling authors Elizabeth Bevarly and Christie Ridgway join together for this enticing anthology. With authors like this, readers get double the pleasure and double the heat. In these four sexy stories of mixed-up couples and mistaken identities, it's not about winning, but how much you like to play.

    With a brand-new novella featuring Hart Winston, whose switch with his identically hot twin brother has landed him in some serious foul play, it's a safe bet that in the game of love no one is going to follow the rules.

    Excerpt at www.LoriFoster.com

    If you get a chance to read it, please let Lori and I know what you thought!

    Yeah, I was really lagging there. Have 2 small kids who are only now big enough to leave alone for 1/2 hour. So I'm making the best of it.

    I went to the bookstore on the 5th and started reading it that evening. I really loved the book, I just wanted a little more of the second part. All in all, it was worth the wait. And I'm content that Ash has his HEA... *sigh* :-) I can't wait to hear what you think of it.

    Hi Star,

    Thanks for the friendship! I see you've been to RSJ. I went for the first time in 2008. I had a blast! I was all star struck meeting some of my favorite authors I've been reading for years. By God's grace I'll be there again in 2009. I would love to meet you.
