I've been slow lately in my blogging because I've been setting up a new WordPress blog. It's finally up! Now maybe I can get some of the wonderful books on my shelf read, including the second and third books of yours. Just never stop writing these wonderful stories or posting these wonderful interviews!<br /><a href="http://anncarbinebest.com/" rel="nofollow"><i>Ann Best, Memoir Author</i></a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-2855583315168035902011-06-19T18:41:56.873-05:002011-06-19T18:41:56.873-05:00Loved the interview, Raquel.
