My Twin, Jessica Simpson
Count down to the blog Launch Party...fun and friends and prizes...
Come back Wednesday when we kick the party off, and again on Thursday when I guest blog on Romance B(uy) the Book. We'll move the party over there for a day and see if we can't find some new online friends (that'll be the day I give away the sparkly gold Guess evening bag and wallet everyone loved ;O) We'll keep the party going through the weekend and into next week. I'll invite everyone over to my eHarlequin book club one day--if you're already reading The Prodigal's Return, check out the discussion any time you like... the water's nice!

So on with the Jessica Simpson connection (Jack, I'm including a pic, just for you, love ;O).
You see, we share the same birthday (the 10th), though I'm sorry to say she's a tad younger than me--I know, I know, you couldn't hardly believe it, right?
I've actually met very few people with birthdays in July, outside of my family. It seems lots of my relatives like to get busy around Thanksgiving, though, so I have lots of cousins to share the limelight with each year...and of course Jessica ;O)
I wanted to do something fun for the new release party, so let's go with a birthday theme! I found this great book a few years back that's supposed to use numerology and astrology, as well as insight into what was going on in the world when you were born, to show you how your day, month and year of birth helped determine who and what you've become. I bought it for research, not really buying into this sort of thing, as I considered various paranormal ideas for future books.
Anyway, here's what it predicted for me, based on my info. If you'd like to play along, leave your year, month and day of birth in the comments and I'll do a few more "readings" from the book each day.
Okay, here's me...looking forward to "doing" some of you ;O)
The Emotive Speaker... you have intense, passionate feelings that cannot be contained...you are determined to be a success...blessed with excellent communication skills, you'd make a great best-selling novelist, motivational speaker, or advertising executive...putting your ideas before the public gives you a great deal of satisfaction...A born romantic, you delight in listening to love songs, watching old movies, and touring ancient cities...your biggest strength is being able to connect with people on a grand scale. Use this strength to spread a message of love and compassion throughout the world...
Let me just say, this book has spooked me more than once. I've looked up friends and family, and the results are sometimes waaaaaay too accurate. Give it a try, and you might get a little spooked yourself!
See everyone Wednesday!

June 11, 1943
That means I've been around for awhile. I've love all of it and wouldn't trade any, well maybe, a tiny bit here and there. I look at birthdays like this, you don't get a year older, only a day. One day you are 62 and the next 63. A year hasn't past, just one day.
Looking forward to the party and getting my copy of you book. Hugs.

Are you going to have The Prodigal's Return at the big signing in Atlanta?
