Hi, friends and family~
Did those of you in the States enjoy the Fourth of July yesterday? I hope you did something special! My family saw the classic rock band "America" in concert...how perfect is that for America's birthday celebration?! :-) I am oh-so-lucky that historical romance author Glynnis Campbell is my BFF, because her husband Rich is America's bass player. Here's a picture we took yesterday of Glynnis and me backstage with Dewey and Gerry from the band.
(Glynnis's husband isn't in this picture because he took it. Check out the luxurious RV "dressing room" in the background--it had marble flooring, full-size kitchen appliances, and the flat-screen TV was bigger than the one in my living room!)

A coming-of-age story about family and values, and--more than anything--love, in all of its variations and dimensions.
