1378457 Sorry I missed last night. I started to get my migraine yesterday. I'm still suffering with it so I can only handle short visits to the internet. Which I had something to cut down the glare. I'm super sensitive to light for days even once the headache goes away. :( I was looking forward to getting to know you better.

One of my very best reviews actually came from a man--Paul Norman of BooksMonthly in the UK. Here's the link to an interview I did for his site: http://www.booksmonthly.co.uk/emily.html
He made me blush several times!
