Girlfriendology video interview with DIANA ZIMMERMAN, author of "Kandide and the Secret of the Mists"

Meeting inspiring girlfriends is always kind of magical! Author DIANA S. ZIMMERMAN, author of "Kandide and the Secret of the Mists," was in town recently for her national book tour. Diana had a spectacular 25-year career as "America's Foremost Lady Magician" and some of her magic acts are still being performed by her friends Lance Burton and David Copperfield! Now she is taking this mystical talent into a land of faeries and lessons on accepting others and ourselves.

I had the privilege of doing a video interview with Diana on her recent book tour. Kandide is written for 9-12 year olds but the story reaches all ages. Sneak peak:

What if everything you feared suddenly became your only hope?
What if everything you loved was suddenly taken away?

The book is inspiring but so it just being in the company of Diana!

Check out her new book for children (but with lessons that apply to all of us and with a 25% off code!).

Thanks Diana for your amazing interview! Remember girlfriends, like Diana, keep INSPIRING, appreciating and celebrating each other!

Legendary magician LANCE BURTON agrees: "Kandide is pure magic!"

Girlfriendology video interview with PAULA YOO, author of "Good Enough"

At first I thought, a 'young adult' novel. I don't need to read that. Then I opened it up and became enthralled with Patti Yoon, the high schooler, daughter of immigrants and overachiever who longs to fit in and strives to stand out.

The first novel by PAULA YOO, "Good Enough" is a charmer. From her first big crush to the funny antics of her church group, she becomes a fun character to watch over as she survives high school and the pressure to attend an ivy league school.

Paula's pretty much a charmer too. She has a great smile and plays amazing violin. She is friendly and easy going. You can tell in the video interview, that she enjoyed writing about Patti and that you'll equally enjoy reading "Good Enough." Watch the Girlfriendology interview with Paula:



THANKS Paula - for your time, for playing the violin over and over again in the Joseph-Beth store (Thanks to them too!). Thanks to Greg & Greg of www.callgregcreative.com. And, THANKS to you for reading Girlfriendology!
