September News

Quote of the Day: “Read, read, read. Read everything – trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You’ll absorb it. Then write. If it’s good, you’ll find out. If it’s not, throw it out of the window.” William Faulkner

Waiting to Exhale ~ Book Launch Soon

Quote of the Day: “The most important things are the hardest to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them — words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they’re brought out. But it’s more than that, isn’t it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you’ve said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That’s the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for want of an understanding ear.” Stephen King

Charleston SC, CM BowenAuthor
Hint: One of the settings for The Long Road Home

I am itching (in a good way) to announce the launch of my new suspense book, The Long Road Home. I understand we are closing the gap for announcing the release date. I can’t wait to hear your response.

I am looking for reviewers to step up and share their take, hopefully positive, on this trail of suspense and mystery. If you enjoy the thrill of reading books with a Southern flavor, you’ll love this one.

Happy 4th of July

July 4th, Carolyn M. Bowen AuthorQuote of the Day: You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness.  You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism.  Erma Bombeck

July 4th, Carolyn M. Bowen Author

Wishing you a fun and safe holiday weekend. Carolyn Bowen  Cross-Ties
