BOOK EVENTS

I am committed to investing more time and energy into book events this year.  I had a wonderful time last night with the ladies of Building Relationships Around Books (BRAB) bookclub.  It was a spirited discussion about The Stallion Family and The Boudreaux Family series.  The women were welcoming and generous and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. 
I spent this afternoon at a Wake County Meet The Authors Event in Raleigh, North Carolina.  Kudos to an amazing crowd that weathered some snowy, winter weather to spend time with me and historical romance author Erin Knightly.  Everyone was spectacular and we all had a great time.
My next book event will be a Book & Author Luncheon in Norwalk, Connecticut on March 16, 2013.  It's being hosted by Bethel AME Church and the Reverend Richard Wesley Clarke, Pastor.  I'm excited about this event because I will be sharing the stage with authors Bernice L. McFadden, and Tonya Bolden.  And I'm extremely excited because this event will take me back to Stamford, CT where I was raised. I haven't been in Connecticut in years so it will be good to go back to a place of familiarity.

If you're planning to be in Connecticut on March 16th please plan to join us.  For tickets please call 293-866-1042.  The meal will be your choice of Chicken, Salmon, or Prime Rib.  Donations $60 - Children Under 12 $40.

DAMMIT, DO BETTER!

I love reading. I get excited when I discover a new author or find an outstanding story. I’m eager to leave reviews and share with others my new finds. When a book or story is lackluster, leaving me less than thrilled, I usually remain silent. I know the effort that an author has put into a story. I know how hurtful a bad review can be. It is not for me to dash anyone else’s dream because what I might not have liked, someone else may have loved. Recently I read books that left me disappointed, and angry. One was an award-winning title, the author gleefully claiming a coveted statue for her efforts. Clearly what I hated, others found award-worthy. And that actually scares me. The story was as well-written as any other in the genre. Its formulaic plot hit all the buttons that her publisher required. But as a woman of color, I found it as insulting and as distasteful as any story I have ever read. The story featured a Native American heroine. She had self-esteem issues, co...

THANK YOU AND GOODBYE FOR NOW!

I remember when I first started this blog. It was 19-years ago and I anxiously anticipated it running on forever and ever. Because I loved to write, I never imagined that there would come a time when I wouldn't have something to say or want to tell you a story. The influx of social media has changed the dynamics of what happens here. And for that reason, I believe the time has come for me to say goodbye to my "blog". But not whole-heartedly goodbye. Just arrivederci  and adios to what I do, or rather, haven't done in some time, in this particular space.  I will continue to write. Writing is in my DNA. Writing is my super-power and I'm not letting that go just yet. I'll still be all over social media trying to leave a small footprint in this vast, wide world. You'll still be able to find me on FACEBOOK , INSTAGRAM , THREADS , TIKTOK , and now the newbies, BLUESKY and SUBSTACKS . I'm still treading cautiously as I find my way but I'm hopeful someth...

NAUGHTY OR NICE TOUR - DAY 6 - DEBORAH FLETCHER MELLO

I'm so excited to be a part of the NAUGHTY OR NICE BOOK BLOG TOUR. And it gives me great pleasure to give you the first peek at my next release, PLAYING WITH FIRE . Available from Dafina books on February 24, 2015, wherever books are sold, PLAYING WITH FIRE is the first in my two-book Sultry Southern Nights series. ENJOY this excerpt and please, PRE-ORDER your copy today! Romeo Marshall is over six feet of cool, smooth, hot, southern seductiveness--just like the music at his popular Raleigh club, The Playground Jazz and Blues Bar. With his beloved mother gone and no father he's ever known, the business is Romeo's everything. It's a place where anything can happen--and the evening one gorgeous young woman and one intriguing old musician walk into the bar--and into Romeo's life--it does. There's something about high-powered, down-to-the earth Taryn Williams that captures Romeo's attention like no other woman has. Yet unanswered questions from his past s...
