The Interview by DL Hammons was almost like being on Oprah. Almost.
DL: So Brinda…are you comfortable?  Coffee made like you asked?

Brinda: Did you say I have a chance at Author of the Year? Yes, the coffee is just the way I like it.

DL:Great!  Let’s get some basics out of the way first…okay?  How tall are you?

Brinda: Tall enough. If you ask my weight, you are in big trouble. You saw me on the treadmill the other day at the gym. I looked tall on it, didn’t I?

Google Is Your Easy Button


As a writer and educator, Google provides me with a lot of useful, free tools.  One very easy tool that I've used is the Google form and spreadsheet.  I'm going to give you five very specific examples of how I've used this tool for marketing and organization in the past six months.  To read more, please visit  Savvy Authors.

  2. LA Freeland listed me on Day 64 of her 365 Days of Thankful. Wow. What an honor! Visit her blog and website HERE.
  3. The Write Club rounds are now proceeding to the finals. You should be voting for the best contenders who are duking it out in the writing ring.  DL Hammons is your host HERE.

For your listening pleasure, I've inserted a music clip from my favorite band, Kings of Leon. They are covering a song originally recorded by The Pixies. If you recognize it, it might be because this Pixies song was on the Fight Club soundtrack
