Thank you readers!
Thank you everyone for making Season of Magic an Amazon Best Seller. For the fourth straight week we've been in the top 50 (#35) for Romance/Holiday books.
If you haven't read it, here's a glimpse.
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house…
That was one of my favorite Christmas stories as a child. We'd fight to be the one snuggling next to my mother as she read us the tale. What was yours? As I got older my tastes changed and holiday romance stories took their place.
Here's a collection of five holiday stories both Christmas and Chanukah. Happy Holidays.

Goals-do you plan
Good morning, Folks. How many of you have goal lists? I found years ago after a time management class, lists were my best friends. Without them I never seemed to accomplish anything.
This morning I pulled down my five year writing goal list from the wall in front of my computer. I wrote this list in 2009 after my heart surgery.
Thanks to you our readers, this morning I get to cross off an item.
What is it?
It was to strive for my books to be published. I accomplished the publishing part first in 2012. The next one was to work hard and hit the bestsellers list. For the last five days I'm proud to say, our readers made this possible with Season of Magic which hit not only Amazon's Bestseller's list, but their Hot New Release list.
I can't say thank you enough to all of you. As a way of expressing our gratitude there'll be a drawing sometime this week on the Season of Magic Facebook Page. Entries will be pulled from our friends lists. Good luck!

Do You Read Christmas Romance Books
Christmas is my favorite holiday and time of the year.
This summer I read a lot of Christmas Romance books and fell in love with the genre.
I chose books from several different authors to see style and circumstances. None of them disappointment me.
Why am I all of a sudden interested? I've been invited to participate in an anthology for the holidays. I'm very excited about this project and the talented authors involved in it. There'll be more details to come on this project. Stay tuned.
Please leave a comment telling me if you read holiday romances.
Thank you,
Marian Lanouette

Romance POV
Whose point of view do you like in a romance? Equal parts of heroine and hero; or just the heroine/hero?
I'm very interested because my next book is a romance.
Thanks,
Marian
