Hello readers:
Welcome to my new website, one and all. I've tried to fill it with fun, interesting information, so I hope you'll take a few minutes to look around. The big news for me is the launch of my new book, Firefly Lane, on February 5th.
So what’s the book about, you ask? It’s a big, juicy, emotionally complex novel about two women who are friends for thirty years. It’s the kind of book I love to read, with larger than life characters making difficult, wrenching decisions. These two women, who meet as girls in the glittering, disco seventies in a small town, make a pact one terrible night: best friends forever. It is a vow that holds true, creating a friendship that becomes the bulkhead of their lives, solid and durable…until one fateful day when a shocking betrayal rips them apart. It’s a story that reaffirms the importance of friendship in our lives and reminds us all to slow down a little, to appreciate the people who have made us who we are, and to stay close to the people we love.
Firefly Lane is for anyone who ever drank Boone’s Farm while listening to Abba or Fleetwood Mac…for any woman who has ever dreamed of finding true love, or wanted a life too big to fit in an ordinary space. But mostly it’s for every woman who knows what it means to stay true to your best friend, even when your heart seems to be breaking. Because what Kate and Tully say is absolutely true: careers change, men come and go, children grow up, but girlfriends are forever.
If you're like me, it's a fun trip down memory lane to remember the girls and women who have mattered in your life. So to kick off Firefly Lane I'm having a Best Friends Contest. I'd love to hear your stories. Also, I'm having a second contest - a signed book giveaway for readers who are subscribed to my newsletter. Five winners will be selected each month to win a copy of Firefly Lane signed by me. If you have not signed up for the newsletter, here’s the link so you can do that! Already signed up? Then you already are entered to win. Good luck to all!
I will be on tour in February and March and would love to meet some of you. Also, for those of you who would like signed books, they are available at Liberty Bay Books in Poulsbo, Washington.
To the shock and amazement of my family and friends, I'm taking a journey into the dark side--blogging. I hope you all join me and post comments along the way. I look forward to hearing what you have to say.
And since I know that Firefly Lane is a perfect book club read, I've suggested some ways to liven up your discussion, and I will be available for book club discussions by phone. See details on how to get your group scheduled to talk to me.
Here's to great reminiscing of old best friend friendships, as well as the best friends you now have.....
Aloha,
