On Valentine’s Day (February 14), I will begin what I am calling “24 …read more

Making our first Breaking the Mirror contest even more spectacular, author Nancy Redd has agreed to sign the copy of BODY DRAMA that one lucky guy or gal will win!
How cool is that?
I see that the comments at the challenge have died down a bit… let’s get ‘em going again. After all, it’s not as much fun without some healthy competition! And besides — it’s great to hear what you love about yourselves!
