I just returned from a fabulous Caribbean cruise and am catching up on all of my blog stops for Week #3 of the Letters on Balboa Island blog tour.
So here are the book tour stops for this week – interviews will be posted the day of the stop.
Monday – As The Pages Turn
Wednesday – Book Marketing Buzz
Friday – SOS Aloha (leave comment on SOS Aloha for chance to win souvenir from Aulani)
I hope that you’ll stop by and also get your copy of Letters on Balboa Island.
Letters on Balboa Island was mentioned on the Balboa Island web site. The other good news is that copies of Letters on Balboa Island will be available at Martha’s Bookstore on Balboa Island – they’re making their way there and should arrive on Friday. So, if you find yourself in SoCal or on Balboa Island, I hope you’ll stop by for a copy of this book or some other hard to find book. It’s a fabulous, eclectic bookstore – so rare these days.
So here are the book tour stops for next week – interviews will be posted the day of the stop.
Monday – Review From Here
Tuesday – Morgen Bailey’s Writing Blog
Friday – Beyond the Books
I hope that you’ll stop by.

As a recap, here are the blog tour stops for the Letters on Balboa Island Blog Tour: Week 1:

Wow, this week has flown by. Today is the last stop of this week’s round of blog tours for Letters on Balboa Island at The Book Connection. I hope that you’re enjoying this series of interviews and I look forward to next week’s, too. I think I’ll post the week ahead on Monday’s blog.
I hope you’ll have a fabulous weekend! We’re making final preparations for our upcoming cruise – I cannot wait to board a ship again. And when I return, I’m sure I’ll be all jazzed up for finishing the sequel to Real Women Wear Red (set on a Caribbean cruise), Real Women Sing the Blues (set on a Hawaiian cruise).
In the meantime, you can have a beach fling in Letters on Balboa Island. Have you ever been torn between two men before? Well, see how Rosalie struggles between two men. So, grab a copy, enjoy the read, and let me know what your favorite parts were.
See you next week!
Today I’m being interviewed at The Writer’s Life about Letters on Balboa Island, including a little bit of background info on writing this book and tips for writers.
I met a lot of fabulous writers back in the heyday of chick lit/hen lit and many of those writers have stuck with me. Others have disappeared from the pursuit and/or moved on without a backward glance. I so appreciate the people I met from the early days who are still with me.
But one person in particular I’d like to tip my hat to is Dorothy Thompson of Pump Up Your Book: Virtual Book Publicity Tours, who has put together this fabulous tour for me.
Tour stops for the entire tour are posted here.
I hope that you’ll stop by.
Today I’m being interviewed at Cafe of Dreams and if you leave a comment on that interview post, you can enter a drawing for a free electronic copy of Letters on Balboa Island.
Tour stops for the entire tour are posted here.
I hope that you’ll stop by.
I watched “The Voice” for the first time and it hit home when one of the contestants with his strong voice said how he’s had a hard time in his vocal career because he’s had to shrink his big voice in order to fit in the boxes out there. But for this competition he wanted to show what he could do. And the judges and crowd went wild for it.
As he said that, I had tears in my eyes. Because I’ve also discovered that when you have a big voice, you mustn’t shrink it – you must let it out in all its glory. It looks like he may finally be getting recognition for being true to his big voice.
I also haven’t been able to fit my voice into mainstream fiction because it no longer supports what I write. So I’ve gone the Indie route. But, thankfully, there are readers out there who have discovered my voice. And I’m hoping that more readers will discover it. Perhaps the blog tour for my latest novel will help push my voice out there.
Speaking of which, it’s day 2 of the Virtual Book Publicity Tour for Letters on Balboa Island and I’m being interviewed at the Hot Author Report.
Tour stops for the entire tour are posted here.
I hope that you’ll stop by.
