Great day at Neshoba County Fair Arts Show


Many thanks to Steve Stubbs, proprietor of Dancing Rabbit Press in Philadelphia, Mississippi, for allowing me to join him for a day-long book signing at the 2007 Neshoba County Fair Arts & Craft Show Saturday, July 21. While we were all surprised by the less than 100 degree temperatures, there was no surprise with the genuine hospitality of the people there. I personally enjoyed the opportunity to meet a hoard of new readers as well as catch-up with some of the nearly grown and really sharp looking children from the area that I was fortunate enough to greet at their birth.

Please contact Steve Stubbs at 601.650.1999 about his wonderful books documenting the history of the Neshoba County Fair and county residents who served in the Civil War or the World Wars. Steve and his associate Cindy Runnels have The Shop on the Corner bookstore on the downtown square of Philadelphia, MS --- a really neat independent bookstore that no one should miss.

The new year 2016 brought a special gift to me, the "opportunity" to be on the other side of the healthcare delivery system--the care receiver rather than the caregiver. Fortunately, I am blessed that my surgery went well. I only missed just over week of work, and a full recovery is expected. During those days away from my ob/gyn career, I spent time at home recuperating and was feed well by family and friends. The surgery had been scheduled long before the Ole Miss Rebels finished a stellar football season, and since my wonderful physician is not an Ole Miss fan he did not mind skipping our second trip to the Sugar Bowl in over 40 years. Fully alert, status-post anesthetic trance and requiring minimal post-op pain meds on the evening of January 1, I watched Ole Miss trounce Oklahoma State on a fairly large, widescreen TV from the comfort of my den couch. However, I missed being in New Orleans with my friends at the Superdome in what they described as great seats in an obvi...

Was the Experiment a Success?

I recently conducted a little experiment in book marketing, placing an ad on FaceBook promoting the release of my three mystery/medical thriller novels as eBooks. The materials utilized for the experiment were no more than my laptop, a little electricity, a high speed cable Internet connection, and a credit card --- as well as some spare time that I did not have. (Perhaps I should have spent the minutes moving past page 100 of my work–in–progress, a fourth novel tentatively titled Wiggle Room .) The results of my non-scientific experiment are detailed in this essay and presented in the guise of a blog entry on my author’s website. While it is meant primarily to interest other authors or maybe publishers, I hope the piece is clever enough for my book fans as well. I was intrigued when author Jeffrey Marks recently reported his own experience with advertising on FaceBook, publishing an article and follow-up piece in the Mystery Writers of America newsletter. I decided to see for myself...
