Jhumpa Lahiri
Hi,
A friend 'pinged' me on Facebook 2 nights ago to tell me she'd read DUTY AND DESIRE and had a review running on her blog.
This took a while to sink in. I clicked on the blog link and learned the book was the 'Book of the Week'. Not only did she love the characters and get absorbed in the story, she compared my work to Jhumpa Lahiri when we chatted later.
OMG! Jhumpa Lahiri!! She's a NYT Bestselling author AND a prize-winning author.
Here's the review... I'll let you decide for yourself while I continue to sit in shock!

Culture Compass
Hi,
So now that I'm done with the edits of Bk II... I decided to catch up with everything else on my 'To Do' list.
The first is a blog post for Aug 22. I can write about anything I want. Relief? No. Pressure. Yes! When you're swimming in an ocean, which direction do you take for land? North? East? South? West? And do you know if you'll get there - assuming you don't have a water-proof compass.
So I started with a topic that forms the backbone to both books in the 'Winds of Fire' series. Culture. One word. Two syllables. But it's packed with punch. And it's in both books.
What's so good about culture? It forms - let me stop right there. It's a post for another blog. Not this one! I'll send you the link when I'm done! :)
