August 23rd, 2008Last August 16, 2008, Lorna Lopez of thebachelorgirl.com invited our family to watch Disney’s Mulan Jr. at Onstage Greenbelt. Knowing how much my daughter Ali liked Mulan 1 and 2, we were grateful to Lorna for her generosity (as always!).

Why would they want to do that?

The Three Most Important Lessons I Learned From Writing a Book
July 12th, 2008Note: The Book Launch for Mom’s A Stewardess was held last July 9, 2008. Part of the program was a Message from the Author. I had meant to write out my message in full, but due to time constraints, I ended up just scribbling my main points and just speaking spontaneously from there. With this blog entry, I hope to document more completely, what I had intended to say:
Timetable for Writing a Book
June 27th, 2008How long does it take to write a book? Long enough. Just kidding. I didn’t think writing or coming out with a book would be as fast as about 11 months, but in the case of Mom’s A Stewardess, that’s about how long it took.
