A Basket Full of Romance is up for grabs at the Mercer PA newly renovated library!Actually, 6 baskets with 6 different themes are up for raffle, donated by library patrons. The basket in the picture was one that fellow Classic Romance Revival authork, LK Hunsaker, put together. Loraine is a friend of the libarary and received a call for themed basket donations in the newsletter and decided to go for romance and reading!
She put out the call a few weeks before the basket was due and the Classic Romance Revival authors responded with donated books, ebooks, pens, and postcards!
I remember when I was kid growing up, I would love to visit the library in my hometown, Manchester, NH. (in the 1980's) There were all KINDS of books, audio recordings, and just plain fun stuff! Mind you, I don't go to the library like I used to, but when Loraine said she was putting this together, I wanted to participate. Libraries foster reading and creativity and I support that a lot.

Hey Steph! Thanks so much for your donations and for this post. :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree, libraries are so necessary and deserve our support.
Hi Steph. I've sent you three emails and they keep bouncing. I don't know if AOL is having issues or what, but thought I'd contact you here. Aug. 4th is super. I'll be emailing you interview questions today, if I can get them through. :(
ReplyDeleteHave a good day. :) (Need a smilie too.)

Bev, sorry to hear about the emails. I hope it gets fixed soon. 4 AUG! Got it!

Yup, Aug 4. Right.
ReplyDeleteI'm puzzled, Steph. I sent your interview questions earlier today and got that evil message again that it wasn't delivered. It mentions a SPAM FLAG. Weird. My other emails seem to be getting through ok. I've had replies to them today. Is there another way I can contact you? I don't know what else to do. :(
