"It is an act of irresponsible self-indulgence to cite our childhood histories as excuses for any of our present
behaviors, attitudes, or qualities that are less than healthy.
 The difficult circumstances and unhappy effects of those childhood years provide clues to the very conditions we are meant, in this lifetime, to experience, overcome, understand and forgive." ~ Robin Norwood


From her book Women Who Love To Much.

What is an online live author chat?

What is an online live author chat? We have had the pleasure of connecting with and reviewing some incredible books in our genre. Most of the authors we've reviewed have been interested in meeting their audience in a more connected way. They want to meet you, the potential reader. They want to have a conversation with you, hear what you have to say and answer any questions you might have. These live author chats have been very fun and informative.

Here's our live chat line up. If anything changes we will let you know. The best way to stay updated on our live events is to subscribe to our newsletter, rss feed and follow us on Facebook or Twitter.

Thought for the weekend:  It's not only children who grow.  Parents do too.  As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours.  I can't tell my children to reach for the sun.  All I can do is reach for it, myself.  ~Joyce Maynard
