A great turnout at Dog-Eared Pages last night. We even had stand-up for comic relief between two-hanky readings. The mix of visual arts, poetry, sci-fi and singing made for a great evening. This bookstore alcove draws great creativity. A special “bravo” for the author of “Shades of Black and Blue.”

Title Survey
June 16, 2014I had a title for my caregiver book long before I finished writing it. It was a title I was in love with because it was the center of my relationship with Rich. It was down-to-earth, direct, but with a hint of humor. It came from his words to me at the end of Chapter 10– “Hold My Hand, But Don’t Rub It.”
My editor convinced me that the real “ah, ha” moment of my book happens later in Chapter 17 (Last Call). And that is the title that made it to the cover.
I wonder what readers think. Do you like the current title “More Thank I Could Ever Know” or do you think “Hold My Hand, But Don’t Rub It” better?
