Wednesdays with Joanne - "An ArtAffair to Remember"
Hi all,
Hmmm, I've a sneaky suspicion you're "all" over on MySpace making new friends. I am an old-fashioned girl who likes old-fashioned romance, so I'll continue to post on our (what must be now) old-fashioned Five Star Blog.
I hope everyone is having a "knock-out" summer! It's going by pretty quickly, isn't it? Make sure to get those vacations in guys. Annette and Frankie are waiting on the beach!
The ArtAffair council in Winter Park, CO, has been kind enough to allow me to peddle my wares (Matchmaker, Matchmaker & A...My Name's Amelia) in the town square, along with other artisans, for two years now. I really appreciate their allowing me in, as it's not been their practice to allow writers into the ArtAffair in times past. My sales have gone quite well, but the best is meeting new readers. I love it when folks happen by, to "buy!" I've met other Charlotte Bronte and Jane Austen groupies at the ArtAffair, which is too much fun. We are not alone.
Admittedly, it's a great feeling when folks stop and chat, telling me they've seen my name at the Colorado History Museum Store, or a Denver library, or on signage at The Tattered Cover, Barnes&Noble, or Borders. It's really, really great if they've read my first book and can't wait to put cold, hard cash down for my second. I love to hear back from readers re their opinion of my historical romances. We are lovers all.
Another quick note. My third historical romance, The Parlor House Daughter, has been "signed and sealed" but won't be "delivered" until the end of next year, under Five Star Expressions.
As I said, have a "knock-out" rest of your summer!
If any of you will be attending the upcoming author luncheon in Waterville ... see you there!
(I'll sign your book if you'll sign mine!!!)

Hi Joanne,
I haven't done the MySpace thing, either. Don't have time. I barely have time to update my own blog. I check into the Five Star blog regularly to see what's going on with the FS authors. Unfortunatley, I'm going to miss the FS Author's Day next weekend, so won't get to meet all of you.
I used to live in Winter Park, was Personnel Director at the Iron Horse Resort. Is that still there?
Keep up your "Wednesdays". I read it. (smile)
