Nola's Meat 'n Three


Tomorrow I'll do the Book of the Month, and I will do the Nicki Holland Mystery series.  We haven't talked about writing middle grade books, and heaven knows I've written enough of 'em.  

I spent all day yesterday going over the galleys for SHE'S IN A BETTER PLACE.  I cried at the ending, can you believe it?  

Today I'm jumping into the third draft of my WIP, which now has a new title:  LET THE DARK COME.  More on that later. 

Shauna, over at Shauna Rumbling, did an interview with me that was kind of fun.  You can read it here. 

Hey, all you Kindle people!  Or future Kindle people!  

(Mom:  the Kindle is Amazon's new electronic reader.  You can download a book in seconds from anywhere, without wires.  A Kindle can hold over 200 books.  No, I don't have one yet but I have ordered one. If you want to see it, click here.)  

When Crossings Book Club first published THE NOTE, back in 2000, they asked me to write a short story to go along with the novel.  So I did.  I came up with a 9,000 word story about Nola Register, who runs a Meat 'n Three (that's a diner, for you non-Southern folks) in New York City. 

I liked Nola and her story a lot.  Nola even made a brief appearance in THE DEBT, if I recall.  

Anyway, the Crossings edition is now out of print.  I wanted Nola's story to be available to a wider market, so I've Kindle-ized it!  If you have a Kindle, you can download Nola's story for only a buck--no, eighty cents.  You can even get a free sample.   Just click here and you'll be all set.  

Happy reading! Tomorrow: the BOM
