added a status update: I turned my book-publishing frustrations into a "one woman self publishing show" after 10 years of frustrating rejections. Cheap Cabernet: A Friendship hit No. 67 Best-Seller on Amazon and No. 12 on Amazon's Best-Selling Memoirs list. After hitting "No. 1 Amazon Movers & Shakers List" the same day, 22 publishers & 16 literary agents immediately asked to read my book. Hear it all & more at http://www.asja.org/wc/2011/
