* THE BAD NEWS *
On a personal note...
My stepfather died Wednesday evening. He'd gone in for cancer surgery at the end of July, and everything looked good - and then anything that could go wrong went wrong. He fought for a very long time, but pneumonia was just too much for his body.
We will be flying back to Oregon toward the end of September, so I will be absent for a few days. Prayers for my mother, as she lost my father many years ago, and we lost my stepbrother last August to cancer and pneumonia as well.

I'm so sorry to hear about your stepfather.
The lack of automated calls is great news, though. And love your book trailer!

I am so sorry for your loss Diane. It really is amazing and can just be shocking how quickly someone's health can change. Your family will definitely be in my prayers. Take care Diane.
My condolences to you and your family.
The trailer is terrific. Now I’m looking forward to checking out this week’s links.
I'm so sorry to hear about your stepfather, Diane. Tough stuff, I know. My condolences to you and your mother.
Thank you everyone. I think we are still in a bit of shock.
Glad everyone likes the trailer.
MY condolences LDW, it's always hard to lose family, I don't believe the "step" lessens that.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. My condolences to you and your mother. Stay safe on your trip at the end of September.
I enjoyed your trailer. I wish I had that talent. Keep up the great work!
*hugs* and prayers and condolences to you and your mom on your loss. What a year for you.
But yay! for the cool trailer. Loved it!
Thank you for the support, everyone.
And I can't claim that trailer! I couldn't make a book trailer to save my life...
Diane, again my most sincere condolences on your loss. Wednesday was indeed a bad day, as you know, I am grieving also.
The trailer is phenomenal. Just excellent. Once again you've proven your ability, in so many ways and via so many different mediums, to get people to WANT to read these books!
I applaud your style, approach, expertise and diversity in reaching so many with a message: "Become part of The Circle of Friends! Experience the challenges of the characters and reap the benefits of the messages these stories tell!"
Superb.
I love your completely different Firdays but I especially love them when you include something from my blog or Web site. Thanke you, Miss Spunk.
And yes, I'm with Tony. Condolences and love.
