Sweet Georgia Brown available January 2, 2008 in bookstores nationwide and online
  Meet Georgia Brown-a humble housewife determined to become a household name....

Exclusive to my online subscribers the premier of my teaser book trailer for Sweet Georgia Brown. The trailer was produced by independent filmmaker Brett Haley of Let It Play Productions, New York. He also produced the book trailer for the novel Then We Came To The End. I emailed the author because I really liked his trailer and he gave me Brett's information. So please double click on my book cover to be directed to YOUTUBE to view the trailer. It opens in the radio station with Georgia's husband Marvlous Marvin, a nationally syndicated radio show host. Leave a comment on Youtube either about your thoughts on the trailer or on how feel about Marvin using his national radio format to talk about his wife of eleven years and then email me at newfictionwriter@msn.com letting me know you have done so and you'll be automatically entered into my drawing for a $100 giftcard to Amazon.com.

What I'm Listening to...Jill Scott: The Real Thing Words and Sounds Volume 3
                               
All I have to say is mmm....mmm...mmm. If you haven't purchased this CD yet, I highly recommend it and you can check out her over one hundred reviews on Amazon who feel the same way I do. My friends know that I am a little impatient. I ordered this CD on Amazon about a month before it was released after hearing the single, Hate On Me, and because I adore Jill Scott. Well, Tuesday came and a friend had purchased it and told me that she couldn't get past Jill's CD to listen to Common's new one or Keisha Cole's. Amazon sent me an email saying it wouldn't arrive until Friday due to some delay, but I couldn't wait. I purchased the CD on that Wednesday the day after the release and when I received the one from Amazon I mailed it to a close friend who just thinks Jill is okay. This CD should change his mind!
Another movie I can't wait to see...This Christmas

THIS CHRISTMAS Sharon Leal as Kelli Whitfield and Regina King as Lisa Whitfield star in a story about the Whitfields family that meets up for Christmas. As the siblings come home for the first time in years with plenty of baggage and as the Christmas tree is trimmed and lights are hung, secrets are revealed and the Whitfields joins together to discover the true meaning of family.
A special thank you to those of you who forwarded my newsletter to your email contacts and copied me on the email. I was so pleased. Be sure to continue to forward my newsletter to your friends, book club members, and other avid readers so they can stay connected with me and my fellow authors. As many of you already know, nothing sells books better than word of mouth so please spread the word!
