Just contact me at PamelaKKinney@comcast.net and let me know. I am bringing only so many copies and already sold one here, plus possiblely two more.

Haunted Richmond, Virginia in Chesterfield County Library Branches!

So cool! Haunted Richmond, Virginia in Chesterfield County Library collection--all the branches!! Haunted Richmond,Virginia

I got the email from Neal Wyatt of the County library collections:

Hello from Chesterfield County Public Library,
Thank you for sending a collection request to the Chesterfield County Public Library using LINC. We appreciate your interest in the collection and value your feedback.
We have received your recent book suggestion of Haunted Richmond. We are pleased to tell you that this book is already part of the library's collection. If you would like to place a copy on hold, you can do so by using our online catalog, http://library.co.chesterfield.va.us .
I hope you enjoy the title.
Sincerely,
Neal Wyatt Collection Management Chesterfield County Public Library

Anyone who has contact with their library, or even suggesting it to Library of Virginia which would be nice. Yes, Schiffer is contacting them, but as seen by Chesterfield, suggestions from the public help. I also have already a copy in the Colonial Heights Library.

Anyway, this is exciting to me.

Hanover Book Festival

It was a nice day. Least I was indoors, away from 100 degree muggy heat that blazed outside the VFW building.
I arrived around 8:20AM and after parking my Toyota Corolla, carried in boxes of books and decorations for the table and promo items, both mine and from other authors into the place. Because I write romance, I was put in wioth the romance authors, even though I write many other genres. I checked in, found my table against the wall and set it all up. On one side was an author from Phaze and on the other side was author Erin Gorgon who as Pamela Fuller also is publisher of ShadowRose Publishing .
First, other authors walked around, stopping at tables, getting promo items and talking to other authors and publishers. At 10:00 AM the public was allowed in and it got busy until about 2:00PM. I managed to sell and sign some copies of Haunted Richmond, Virginia, a copy of my erotic SF romance novella, Iridescent Invasion on CD and a copy of Cthulhu Express anthology my story, "Azathoth is Here" is in. I also gave away bags of promo from other authors and me, plus other promo from me, especially business cards.
Author Erin Gordon wanted a copy of Forbidden Love: Bad Boys and I had donated it to the festival. It had been packaged with couple other erotic romance books and bottle of champagne for a silent bid auction and she won the basket! So I autogrpahed my story, "Soul Seduction" for her.
Next year though, I plan to get a whole table, not half. I have too many print and e-books, and it doesn't look to get any less over the next few months. LOL

Travel Guide to Haunted Mid-Atlantic Region on Amazon and Harry Potter 7 Reviewed

I have a horror short story, "Plagued" included with so many other great, scary stories in Travel Guide to the Haunted Mid-Atlantic Region Anthology and now you can get it at AMAZON . So now if you get my nonfiction ghost book you can buy the anthology and read my ficitonal ghost story.

Also if anyone has bought Haunted Richmond, Virginia and read it please leave me a comment here a link to your blog or what not. Thanks. I will post the link to your review and blog on my website.

And now my review of Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows by J. K. Rowling. When I got the last book in the Harry Potter series from Creatures and Crooks Book Shoppe (whihc was the first one picked up--my husband put it aside for me) I took it home after everyone had finally left with their books. I didn't start reading it until the next day. Of course, I started into it. It took me a few days as I had my own manuscripts due and of course, 'Real Life" butting in.

In this book Harry, Ron and Hermoine are older and the war is on. Voldemort, or He Who Shall Not Be Named (whihc we find out why for a very good reason, his name lets him know where those against him are)has his Death Eaters, including Snape. Snape, who everyone is wondering is he really a bad guy, or is it all a fake. That gets answered in this book. And no I won't answer it for those who haven't read it yet. Anyway, Harry's Muggle family is taken away by some of the Order of the Phoenix wizards for their own safety, then , with Mad-Eye Moody leading them, several of Harry's friends are made tp look like him so they can help him escape to a safe place, tricking the Death Eaters. it doesn't work. But when Voldemort tries to stop the real Harry he fails, but unfortunately his owl, Hedwig doesn't escape with her life.

There are deaths in this book. Rowling doesn't let all of the good guys survive. So if you don't want to read any favorite die or have a child who couldn't handle this, I would suugest not reading this book. It's more of an adult book, but then I said from Book 4 on up it was more for young adults and adults and not young children. And there's too much extra stuff in this that could have been edited, amking it a tighter, more straight to the action book. But I still enjoyed it and recommend it for a good read on vacation. It's a fitting end to something we may never see again, or maybe we will.

I give this book 4 1/2 DRAGONS.
