Here's the first book review for my suspense-thriller, COMA.

This suspense thriller has everything to keep readers intrigued: a witty, unconventional hero; an exciting plot that delivers non-stop action from beginning to end; a seemingly unstoppable villain; and a couple beautiful women vying to domesticate the loose cannon. This one would make an explosive movie. Think Bourne, or the Bruce Willis version of The Jackal, then multiply by ten and you’ll have an idea of what the movie version of COMA would be.

Margaret Mitchell's "Gone With The Wind" is my favorite movie of all time. Since I write historical romance, this movie has inspired from the time I first saw it as a young girl. My motivation for writing comes from my southern grandmother who had a lot of Miss Melanie's values.

New Website "Visual Impressions Media"

We grew tired of paying high prices when it came to media. We feel good quality photography, web design, graphic design, and book publishing does not have to be expensive. It just has to be good.



We, like most of you, are feeling the crunch of America's current economic slump, so we'll meet or beat anyone's offer to you, if it's for the same product. For instance, if you can get a 5 page personal web design for less than $200 and it matches or is better than our of… Continue
