| Melissa's earring giveaway |
Before I go any further in introducing Lisa Crone, our next host at the Virtual Book Tour, I want to announce that Molly Alexander of Beautifully Broken Me has created a blog called "Grateful Living." It's a wonderful idea to give pause to reflect on our blessings in a very public way. Today's my day, where I express one of my gratitudes.
Lisa Crone is a new friend and the author of the extremely popular "A Bead in Time." I can't remember exactly how we met ... actually, I think my editor may have suggested that I contact Lisa ... but I do remember her very generous spirit. Lisa was instrumental in helping me get this book tour off the ground. I had no idea how to get started, what to do, or how to even think about it. She contacted other artists who sent information ... she gave me links to other book tours ... Thank you, Lisa!
Look what Lisa made with the enamel beads and dangles I sent her!
Lisa says of her bracelet ... "It's the 'Key to the Universe' bracelet. The key to the universe is sweet happiness and beauty in the things around you (represented by the dangle), which equals love." I think Lisa summed things up beautifully and she has some beads as a giveaway! Please visit Lisa today for your chance at some enamel beads ... here are the rules.
Remember, you're at the Virtual Book Tour for this book!
