Have You Heard the Latest?


The Heart of Dixie chapter's annual Readers Luncheon was fabulous! I was fortunate to sit at Rhonda Nelson's table and chat with her about her writing process and experiences with working with editors to publish her books. Rhonda is a loving mother and fantastic writer! I cannot wait for next year's luncheon. Come join us for a wonderful afternoon of honoring those who do the reading for those of us who do the writing!
