Hello my little frozen ones,

Cruella here. What thee hell is happening? Look I have been patiently waiting for you all to RUN to www.bn.com and get your reviews on there for me for "PASSING THOUGHTS" .....I'm still waiting....
I have groveled and begged, what can I try next??
Bribery? Small unmarked bills work for ya??

Well, well, what else is new ???....I am doing great, stupendous and I am busier than evah kids!!

Enough of my W&B (whining and bitching) for now here's what's happening my pets:

THURSDAY, MARCH 7 AND 21, 2002
Come and listen to some great "live" poetry read at "Minnie's" in Arlington. I believe it starts at 07:30 PM. Had such a great time last time reading "Rebels Without A Bra" for everyone. Nothing like doing stand up with a LIVE audience. Admission is $3.00 at ze door, worth every cent. They even have drinks, cookies, etc. Come hang with the "artsie" ones of Jax, like me and a few of my friends. We'd love to see ya there!!

TUESDAY, MARCH 12, 2002
Yes, "Fly" has yet again been picked as a "Book Of Ze Month"by a local club. This time it will be the Chamberlain's Women's Club in Riverside. Come stare at your fav freak abuse survivor and listen to some of my hair raising tales!! Some chicks just love to hear all of the gore!! Maybe they learn a thing or two along the way though as well. They will start drilling me with questions at 07:00 PM.

FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 2002
Come see moi and both of my little books at Barnes and Nobles of Mandarin for Jacksonville's "Women's Cafe Night" from 07:00 - 10:00 PM. It will be fun, it will be great I get to speak for 10 - 15 minutes, so come by and buy my books if you haven't yet you little locals you. Some of you missed ze premiere in January, so you are not off the hook yet!! I KNOW WHO YOU ARE! HA!

MUCHO, MUCHO THANKS THIS MONTH:

To Lynn Skapyak-Harlin for covering me at the YWCA Careers Connection for the Florida Times Union - we are anxiously awaiting to see that little biz in ze paper. Lynn and I are also going to start a six weeks course on writing for the ladies over at the YWCA starting soon! Lynn also invited me to come to Minnie's and read last week - what a treat!!

Special thanks to my FAN MAIL that I get from folks unknown and those known! I need all the pos vibes I can get! Thanks for those that came to Minnie's and took the time to find out who I was and sent me E's telling me how much they enjoyed my reading! That means everything to me guys and gals! THANK YOU for your support!

Thank you to Terry (Manoski) Foster who bought and paid for copies of both "Fly" and "Passing Thoughts" (even though I did not want her to pay for them!) She is still passing the words and getting my books out!! You are the best my Clem! I love you so much!!

Thanks to Glenda Ivey, the President of Florida Writer's Association for giving me the opportunity to lead one of her palm groups. Also thanks to her guy in command, Roger Kuder, for all of the PR and thanks to both of them and FWA for inviting me to be on their panel discussion in May at Neptune Beach. (More info on this later!)

Thanks to Kim Earle from the Robert's Group in Washington, DC who found me on Authors Den and has picked "Fly" as their "Book for Review" in May also! Their organization will be sending in a donation to Safe Place for me and I also get to talk at their conference at "The Breakers" in Palm Beach, FL in May!! What a thrill and honor!!


Ok, had enough of my life?
Let me hear about yours please.
Don't forget I still need your REVIEWS (favorable of course), your support (this means buy my books dammit!)
also your prayers!! (This I do need daily!)

CALL, WRITE, E-ME WHEN YOU CAN!! You need to stay in touch! I MIGHT get famous some day and you will want to know me then, but for now humor me and let's pretend!!

Love and many bites to you all my pets,

Yours immortally,
