Pamela, I've added your books Women of Wonder: The Classic Years, Women of Wonder: The Contemporary Years, The Shore of Women, Earthseed and The New Women of Wonder to my to-read list


630905 Thanks for the friendship, Pamela!

Here’s wishing you a fantastic day filled with fabulous fates, fanciful festivities, and frolicking phantom footstools.

I was wondering if you'd do me the honor of reading about my debut novel, Vacation, which recently made the Bram Stoker Award Preliminary Ballot. Your support would mean a lot to me. If you'd like to do me this honor, feel free to vist my site here:

Happytimes,
