A Love Affair

I've had a number of people ask why an Atlanta author writes about Melbourne Beach. I've even had a few say, "Where the heck is Melbourne Beach. Well, Melbourne Beach is in east central Florida, twenty or so miles south of the Kennedy Space Center, and the reason why I write about that particular beach is simple: I love it. But of course, there's more to the story.

I'm a native Floridian. When I moved up here to Georgia many years ago, I left a part of my heart there. Ther…

Hi Lynda,

We would love to be part of any upcoming book (or promotional project) you have coming out. Part of the reason I joined BOOK PLACE is to contact Five Star authors. My company is fairly new but I have been working with Five Star for 5 years, I am ex-employee of Thorndike Press/Five Star. I was laid off when they closed the production dept. (not Thorndike's choice, this came from the company that owns them).

When I left, I added a graphic design business to my wife's poetry publishing company, Thorndike/Five Star was a huge reason I started the graphic design dept.

I'm just now spreading the word that we are here to help authors and publishers design there covers.

I really want to Thank You for your praise I really appreciate it.

If you want to send me an email my email address is ed.vincent@encirclepub.com.

Look forward to working with you.

Hi Lynda,
I was the art director for your book cover IF TRUTH BE TOLD, I'm a subcontractor for Five Star, my team of designers do most of the covers for Five Star.
I'm glad you like your cover we work very hard to make the authors happy.

I know other Five Star Authors plus previous authors who at one time were with Five Star. It's a small world, after all....

Hi Lynda,

Sorry it took a few days to get back to you. I've been at AuthorFest, then visiting family. Yes, Schnauzers are wonderful dogs. I loved mine so very much. She died (on September 11 of all days!) last year, and I miss her terribly. Some day I'll get another. Thanks for the note!

My Impressions - Barbara Walters Show & Academy Awards - Morgan Mandel

I've got a sore throat, which means a cold or the dreaded flu, but I got bored with sleeping.

To break the monotony, I watched Barbara Walters interview:

Miley Cyrus - or Destiny Hope Cyrus, which was the first name her parents gave her. She's 15 years old and already owns an entire wing in her parents' home. What a life!
Very engaging young girl who seems to have her head on straight despite all of her notoriety.

I also watched Barbara Walters interview Ellen Page, a very pretty 21 year old, very sensible, but she just had to close the interview singing a song which I can't get out of my head - nice little ditty.

Vanessa Williams - who spoke about the controversy over her nude photos and admitted they weren't worth it in the long run. Very lovely woman who admitted she, like many other movie stars, uses Botox.

Harrison Ford - who says his new Indiana Jones movie, set for release in May, will not hide the passage of time. Harrison himself is now 65, but doesn't look it.

I love the glamor of the Academy Awards. I particularly enjoy watching what the stars wear and how their hair is done. Sometimes they look completely different in person than on the sample movie clips shown.

Many of the women are wearing strapless gowns - which always make me a bit nervous - how do they keep them up without spilling out of them?

Anyway, I haven't seen any of the movies, but will eventually do so on DVD.

I just watched Tilda Swinton win supporting actress. She looked totally surprised. It was refreshing to see that much spontaneity.

Anyway, I'm signing off now so I can enjoy the rest of the Awards - Also to Dream that some day my romantic comedy, GIRL OF MY DREAMS by Morgan Mandel can be made into a movie - Well, I did say it was a dream, didn't I?

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.

When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
