Violet Voices

This and That

By Meredith Efken

We went to Chicago this past weekend for my sister-in-law’s wedding reception. What a fun city! We visited China Town, Hyde Park, and got to hang out with my author friend, Allie Pleiter, who writes mom lit and chick lit that you absolutely MUST read.

Now that I’m back in town, I wanted to make mention of some updates and changes on my website. All the extra features for my new book, @Home For The Holidays, are now up, including an interview with everyone’s favorite irritating antagonist, Rosalyn Ebberly, and her sweet-as-honey sister Veronica. There are also several extra scenes that had to be cut from the book, and some other goodies too.

Also…I want to invite you all to come to a “Holiday Party”/Book signing here in Omaha, NE. It’s December 7th, at 7:00 p.m. at the Reading Grounds Bookstore, located at 40th and Farnum. We’re planning to have chocolate cake (which features significantly in @Home For The Holidays) and play the Holiday Song game that Jocelyn invents in the book. There’s a chance that I might even get my husband to come dressed in a Santa suit, but NO promises! So please come say hi and have some cake and enjoy the fun.

December promises to be a crazy month, so I’m inviting all the Violet Voices contributors to try to post at least once during the month. Otherwise, I’m afraid posting might be a bit sketchy between now and the new year. But we’ll just see how it goes.

I’m also working on a new book project. It’s top-secret for now, but I’m sure I’ll have some details in the months ahead. It won’t be another SAHM book, and it’s going to be a little less comic than my first two, but I think people will really like it. Be watching for more details…
