Witches of Bourbon Street

I just ordered my second Deanna Chase book, Witches of Bourbon Street and am excited to receive it.  Deanna is a fellow glass beadmaker, and writes a really fun book to read.  Her main character, Jade Calhoun (who coincidentally also makes glass beads), finds that she has gifts that she will need to learn how to use properly.  The setting in New Orleans is perfect for this type of tale.

I am looking forward to a hardcover copy that is autographed, (Find it here!), or for you higher tech type readers, I understand that it is Kindle, Nook and Barnes and Noble ready too.

Hope you enjoy her style of writing as much as I do.  I can't wait for my package to arrive now!

Picture Worth a Thousand Words

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then I bet you can tell where I was on Tuesday.

And here's a second chance, if there was some way you didn't catch the first.

I loved my day in New Orleans.  It started with beignets and cafe au lait and ended with a great late lunch with Deanna Chase.  I'll post more photos later of some of my finds in the French Quarter, but first, I wanted to say more about Deanna.  What a delightful and talented glass artist and writer.

Did you know that she has written a book, Haunted on Bourbon Street, which of course, is set right around the corner from where we had lunch.  And I found out her second book is getting close to being completed.  I'll let you know when it's out.  We chatted about the book business, which is fascinating to me.  I love learning about new topics and especially love hearing about specific industries.  This is cool.

And you can find Deanna's glass beads and her husband, Greg's marbles and fun murrini right here!

I'll write more about NOLA another time.  I have some more photos to download and then I'll show you what I found.

Haunted on Bourbon Street

I can't wait to get glass artist and author, Deanna Chase's new book, "Haunted on Bourbon Street" in the mail.  I just ordered it and having read excepts, it sounds like a great read.

I'm going to admit something- I enjoy a good romance novel.  There, I said it.  And this one is a paranormal romance novel which sounds like it will be lively and fun.  And New Orleans is a great location for ghosts, good looking landlords and a great plot.

You can order it HERE  and even get a signed copy.  I did.
