Profile Information

My hometown:: I'm a Christian writer, a wife and mother, and grandmother to the four cutest little scalawags on the topside of the earth! We all live in Bakersfield, California. I've resided in and around this desert town my entire life.

My books:: My historical romance novel, Goldeneyes, will be available March 31, 2008, through Vintage Romance Publishing. Praise the Lord! I'm currently working on two follow-up novels, and hope to be able to place them quickly.

I enjoy reading and writing, of course (doesn't every author?), singing, playing piano, word games, and loud, happy family gatherings ... above all, I love God and family - both natural and spiritual. Here's hoping I'll meet a bunch more of the spiritual variety right here on PublishedAuthors!

My monthly newsletter, The Bookshelf, has been well-received. I'd love for all of you to join my e-mail list (which I guard like a mean junkyard dog)! You can see this month's edition on my website (www.delialatham.com). Click on the homepage icon to subscribe.

When I'm not writing or doing any of the things I already mentioned, I like to design bookmarks for authors, using the cover art from their books. It's a lot of fun, and the designs sometimes turn out so attractive even I am surprised! :D You can see my work on my website.

Blessings from the Top of the Tree

A few days ago, we had a pretty rough windstorm—pretty rough for around these parts, anyway. Not anything approaching tornado severity, but enough to knock down a few trees, tear off a bunch of roof tiles and stir up some pretty nasty allergies. My husband, Johnny, has severe lung problems, so winds have become something to dread. They often bring on a week or so of tough times for him. This morning, Aunt Vera dropped by our place, her arms piled high with three plastic grocery bags. All of th… Continue

Goldeneyes Book Tour

Starting with a bang right on the 1st of February, I'll be touring a number of blogs, talking about my upcoming release, Goldeneyes. I hope you'll all follow me from blog to blog - and be sure to leave comments, as that's where I'll get the entries for the giveaway of a Goldeneyes T-shirt and an electronic copy of the book!

Here's my schedule so far:

1. Feb. 1 – Cec…

I know High-Profile Murderer is a great novel and have best-seller written all ovet it. I just can't afford to promote it like I would like. I am in the process of looking for an agent for all my other projects. Please tell me how to go about getting my contract released. Thanks for all your help Delia. I honestly don't know what I would do without you. You are a great friend.

Thank you so much! I hope all is well with you also! Honestly, I don't know what I'm doing besides writing my stories. I haven't even had a book signing yet, not many sales either... It's kinda hard with two kids during and after a move to market your book on a limited budget. I'm just trusting God for a miracle...Thank you for asking...If you have any tips please let me know! I would be forever grateful!
Your sis in Christ!

So nice to hear from you. How is Golden Eyes coming along? I have beeen trying to complete my second novel for the past year, and have only gotten to chapter four; talk about a writer's block. High-Profile Murderer is being reprinted. There were so many typos that I didn't see. My sister-in-law called me when she read it and said she couldn't believe how many there were. I caught a few of them when I read over my copy as well as a few other people, but we didn't see all the ones she saw. To my suprise PublishAmerica agreed to do a reprint even though it's been out awhile. I also took out most of the language I was feeling embarrassed about, now I feel more comfortable presenting it to a wider audience.

It is so good hearing from you Delia. I will probably be needing your services soon, I have a big event coming up in November. Please pray for me that I overcome this writer's block I have. I will talk with you soon. Have a blessed day!
