Hello Friends!I would like to thank all of you for your support, and for sending me messages inquiring about the release of the next two books to my trilogy.
As some of you already know, my ex-publisher printed the very first draft of my novel, and not the edited version I spent nearly two years perfecting...they also reneged on every other aspect of my contract, so I have been picking up the pieces, and will be releasing the trilogy, as well as my first two poetry books very soon!
Thank you for staying in touch...I will try to get back to everyone individually...
Sincerely,
Ali :)
Hey Ali! Hope all is well! Just wanted to let you know I have just posted two sample chapters to Eye For An Eye (the sequel to Home Wrecker coming this October) and my mystery suspense novel, In Strict Confidence (coming in 2011) Check them out when you can!
Hi Ali.I saw that you marked Marie's Book of Spells as "to-read." I just wanted to let you know that if you haven't downloaded it yet, I'll be changing the price from free to $.99 on November 1st. Stop by the page and download a copy if you haven't already!

Hi, Ali.Did you get a chance to read The Little Black Fish? I see that I have attracted some attention from the group members. I am looking forward to your comments considering that although the book is for children yet, the author has wonderfully inserted messages in the story which shows a path only uderstandable by advanced readers and adults (in most cases).
I see many discussions posted for different books listed in this category and they are great discussions. But none asked me this question: "How can a children's book have "political" contents and be "banned?" Please tell me what you think.
Thanks a lot,
No problem :D I really liked Sporadic Memories so adding you to my author list was just something I had to do :P keep up the great work
Hey, Ali...thanks for the invite into your circle of friends...CONGRATS on your books...and I wish you much future success with your writings...looking forward to sharing chats, reviews and any/all recommendations...have a blessed week...and Happy Reading & Writing :-)
I'm answering an email you sent me FIVE WEEKS AGO! Jones Harvest Publishing has been so lucky lately that I'm not afraid to jinx it.
I took on all of our problems one by one and reversed them!
Yes, getting new books is fun..but putting them in the system is not.I'm glad you had a great day at school.
Alicia
:D
Hi, AliI am having a pretty good day so far. I am at work, which is a library on an university's campus. We are currently doing inventory and my wonderful job is to catalog books (yay me!). So I am stuck in my office in the back of the library staring at a computer screen all day.
Hope your day is going well?
Alicia
:D
I only sent you very tardy emails. I got overwhelmed. Jones Harvest Publishing is very suddenly very popular again--Which is very good news!How are things going for you?
Hey, AliNo, they don't call me Ali. I am normally called Lish or Lici...or hey you, which is not exactly my favorite. I am having a blast with Recipes Galore and I am glad you are liking what little I do contribute.
Hi, Ali! Thanks for friending me. The icon photo is a vulture, I think. Surprisingly, it is a fairly attractive vulture...who knew?
Thanks for recommending "The Future of Man". Sounds like a great book. Now I know your taste in books!"The Little Black Fish" is also showing the path to freedom, equality and justice (all in the framework of a great story for children). This is what makes it so special.
bonjour mamani see you have more friends than me on this site but that will soon change lol
ilike this site i will get my friends and teachers to join
It's lovely to meet you, Ali. I always enjoy meeting fellow writers - especially another Canadian!Dianne Ascroft,
author of 'Hitler and Mars Bars'
Hi Ali, I can not wait for your next installation "Because Of Grandfather" to hit! You're such a crafted writer, gifted pianist, and inspirational poet.
Your written works, speaks to the heart and soul of readers. If your readers loved "Sporadic Memories" (as I did and do) I am assured they are going to love this read, too! Keep shining!
Blessings,
Vanessa
Hi Ali,I wish you great luck with your book and keep spreading around that positive light you are!
Best Wishes!
