And Now For Something a Little Different...

Seeing as it's only Thursday, it's only a little different...

This post is a day early due to a speaking engagement Friday morning. I was invited to give a talk at NCAEOP’s Annual Conference in Greensboro, NC – so think about me during the hours of 9-11am as I speak in front of a crowd of about 1000 people!

Information for writers, authors, publishers – anyone in the industry! Ivan Hoffman is one of the top publishing law lawyers in the country and his site is FULL of information:

Jane Kennedy Sutton posted a link on her blog to the most beautiful libraries in the world:

And Prill Boyle featured me today on her blog!
Defying Gravity

The president of the Friends of the Library of Robeson County, NC is seeking one - two more authors for a BIG event on December 5th! If you or someone you know is an established author, particularly in the area of mystery, thrillers, or history, let me know and I will get you her contact info.

And thank you everyone for cheering on my release of “Overcoming Obstacles with SPUNK!” this week!

  1. Have a great speaking engagement. I LOVE speaking (and performing) in front of large audiences, having been a musician/entertainer/thespian in my younger careers and now as an author/speaker as well.

    Break a leg!

  10. Diane, I hope your speaking engagement went very well.

    Thank you for mentioning my blog, and, Christina, I know what you mean. The CPSIA debacle is doing the same to me. (looks in mirror at g, h, and j embedded in forehead)
