Dear Friends:

Just wanted to let you know what’s going on since I completed the tour
for my memoir WHAT BECOMES OF THE BROKENHEARTED. First I want to thank
you for the tremendous support you showed me while I was out on the
road. I've received more email than ever before and each one has
touched me. Thank you. It’s taking me a little longer to answer them
all so please be patient...

Let me also say that you can go home again. I’m having a ball teaching
at my alma mater, the University of Arkansas-Fayetteville. My classes
are full and the students are wonderful. Many of you wanted to know
what my classes are reading. We just finished A Little Piece of Sky by
Nicole Bailey Williams and my students loved it. I have several
students (athletes) who haven’t read a novel since high school and
they loved it as well. I highly recommend Nicole's book.

Besides teaching I'm also serving as interim cheerleading coach for
the Razorback cheerleading squad. Let’s just say I’m sore and realize
I’m not a kid anymore but the kids are so amazing it doesn’t seem like
work. Look for my cheerleaders this week on your local ABC station
as my beloved Razorbacks take on the Texas Longhorns.

So there you have it. As always, thank you so very much for your
support and kindness. I’m going to close know so I can get back to
work and start reviewing our next book The Harris Men by R.M. Johnson.
Why don't you read along with us? I promise you'll have a very good
time. Have a blessed week. Go Hogs Go. Beat Texas!
