My bio: Anita Diggs has worked as a book editor for Random House, Time Warner Trade Publishing and Thunder’s Mouth Press. She has lectured across the country on the topics of novel writing, book proposal development and how to get a literary agent. The New York Times, The Chicago Tribune, C-Span, The New York Daily News have interviewed her. Columbia Journalism Review placed Ms. Diggs on their “The Shapers” list for the year 2000. The Shapers is a list of prominent New Yorkers who shape the national media agenda.
Fred, the ISBN (hardcover) is 978-1-4363-0929-5 and (paperback) 978-1-4363-0928-8. You can now order through Amazon.com (yeah!!!) as well as the Xlibris website. I appreciate every sell.
Shantella: You are most welcomed! Encouragement is such an easy thing to do! Often times it is the smallest rememberances of kindest or support which help us to press forward. Last year I finally got a chance to thank the son of a man who literally put a roof over my head when my family wouldn't even help me! The man pasted away several years ago, but I remembered that his son played Pro ball for the NY Giants, Billy Taylor, who has a sports talk show in NYC. Last year we made contact, and I shared with him my testimony of his father's blessing. Please send me the ISBN number again, so I can order the book for myself and rochelle!
