New member Dr. Lin Stepp's series of regional novels are being published by Parkway Publishers.  The first book in the series The Foster Girls comes out July 2009 and the second Tell Me About Orchard Hollow is scheduled for Spring 2010.  Dolly Parton and bestselling author Deborah Smith have given praise for the new series - and Jim Gray's beautiful art work adorns the cover of every novel.  Learn more at the author's website www.linstepp.com

Jane Flanagan has published "A Dance with the Spirit."  She calls it "a fond and off-beat look at humans coping with being human and other not very deep philosophical issues."  If you would like a copy, you can contact her at 483-3214 or send an email to janeflana@comcast.net The cost is $15, with proceeds to be donated to the Linda Kraeger Memorial Fund.  Linda died in the shooting at Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church in July.  Jane plans to attend this year's conference and her book will be available in the conference bookstore.

Elsie Knoke says she won two awards in the most recent Grandmother Earth and Life Press competition.  "One was a third place award for prose and the other a first place award for humor, both for the same piece, entitled 'The Old Woman Who Lived In a Shoe.' It will be published in their journal."

Judy DiGregorio reports "after five years of trying to get a humor book published, I finally met with some success." Life Among the Lilliputians, will be published by Celtic Cat.  The book is now available. She confesses, "It is not Shakespeare, it is not Stephen King. It is just my collection of funny stories about the life of a woman with small talents and big feet."  You can place an order at www.celticcatpublishing.com


Beverly Conners sold the audio rights to Dead Guilty to Oakhill Publishing in the UK . The same company made the audio of Dead Secret.  Piatkus published Dead Hunt in the UK in October. The German version of Dead Secret came out a couple of months ago (from Droemer/Knaur publishers).
