As a debut novelist, I’m enjoying the opportunity to do book signings. I’ve done four since Fairer than Morning released on May 10th, and each event has taught me something new about readers.

The Kryptonite Questions by Publisher Allen Arnold
I’m a huge Superman fan. His strength is legendary. So is his greatest weakness — Kryptonite. Your greatest strength is your story. In the end, it always comes down to the story.

Guest Post: Share a Laugh—Bless a Friend
In Honor of Celebrating Friendship MonthBy Frankie Sherman I live in a sleepy little town in the Deep South.

Remembering: Guest Post by Kim Woodhouse
I read a great blog post today about how we need more 9/12s. September 11th marked a tremendous tragedy for our country, but September 12th marked the time of change. We all acted differently, looked at each other differently, faced our problems differently. We were united. We were supportive. We were encouraging. We were there to help our brothers and …
