Every time I turn around I read another article telling writers not to quit. Years ago, I realized I can’t quit. I’m addicted. So to help others recognize the signs that they most likely have a writing problem, I have compiled a list. You know you are addicted to writing when … 1) It [...]

Description:
Ghosts, Mystery, and Fashion. Can this diva solve her own murder, or will she be stuck in limbo forever?
After recovering from the shock of seeing her own dead body, (still dressed to kill from last night’s party) fashion model, Jaclyn Jade, discovers she’s a ghost with a choice. She can either immediately go back to Hell, do nothing and stay in limbo, or find the reason she fell short of grace and advance to Heaven.
Because she was murdered, Jaclyn hopes that finding her killer will unravel this mystery. With the help of a timid closet-psychic who can speak to the dead, and a handsome, yet arrogant, ghost of a man from the roaring 20s, her search for answers initiates a quirky journey of self-discovery. Personalities, eras, and worlds collide as this mismatched trio race against time to solve the mystery of Jaclyn’s Ghost.(

| It was okay. I liked Crusie’s writing style: kind of easy-going. However, the dialogue was meh, and I felt like I was hit over the head with donuts, Chicken Marsala, and Elvis. There were no surprises - Just kind of even-toned all the way through. | |

Hi, Dorlana. I noticed that you have my book "Wind and Fire" on your to-read list. First of all, thank you very much for adding it!I just wanted to let you know that the edition you have marked is no longer in print. If you go to my author profile, you'll see another version there with two hands holding fire on the cover. This is the most current edition. If you could change your edition to this one instead of the other one, that would be great. Thanks.
