Hello Ilyn. I believe I have signed up for the Authors Program, but thanks for mentioning it.
Hello Nancy,Thank you for being my friend. How are you? Congratulations - I wish you good fortune on your books.
When you have the time, please join me at the Happy & Brainy Group. Please check out the author giveaways (Reason Reigns is listed).
I will check out the Author's Society. I discovered Goodreads a week ago; I'm so glad to be here. Is there a reason why you haven't signed up for the author's program?
Warmest regards,
Ilyn
Thanks, Daniel. Actually, the first title in my Bad Hair Day series is Permed to Death, not Perfumed to Death, although I like that one, too! And I wouldn't call my series "death-drama". They're humorous romantic mysteries featuring hairstylist and amateur sleuth Marla Shore. I hope you enjoy them!
Hey Nancy, I've added your death-drama series Perfumed to Death, Body Wave, Murder by Manicure, Perish by Pedicure and last but not least Hair Raiser to my to-read list.
Thanks for the info, Kelly. I'm busy reading the books for the RITAs now. If you're not familiar with this contest, see my blog athttp://mysterygal.bravejournal.com
