On May 18th, I told you about Paula Reed's new novel, Hester, now scheduled for release February 16, 2010.Paula has a blog now, and she has her first review (Publisher's Weekly) posted there. Her website tells a little more about the novel.
And you may, of course, pre-order from amazon.com at a lovely discount. Barnesandnoble.com as well.
I gave you the scoop about author Teresa Funke on August 10th. Her new World War II themed book for middle graders, V for Victory, is now available.And don't forget Teresa's book of short stories about women's lives during World War II, Dancing in Combat Boots. This book would make a great gift for any woman in your life, from young teens to elders.
Teresa now performs a one-woman show using her Dancing in Combat Boots stories. I was out of town when she debuted, but am looking forward to her next production in March.
And a Quote to Finish the post:

Patricia, these are terrific! Thanks for sharing.
You had me at asparagus with gorgonzola sauce. Yum. Can't wait to try it. Now I'm off to visit the other links. Thanks.
Thanks for commenting on my blog. I love visitors. If you really want a cookie - I have a recipe for that, too. Look for a post called "On Karma, Hope, and a Cookie Recipe." They're my favorite all time cookies.
Blogging just connects you to so many new and interesting people. Can't wait to check out the new sites. Thanks for sharing those and the updates on the Colorado authors.
No truer words where ever spoken than those of Cookie Monster. Checking on Kathleen's site now to see her cookies recipes.
Thanks for the mention.
I'll be visiting the other blogs. You've already introduced me to a couple that I follow. Maybe, I'll have good luck again to find one that will teach me some stuff I need to learn now.
Heck, yes, I was serious about the cookies. I had to settle for a biscotti, but now I must go check out Kathleen's cookie recipes. Thanks!
Love the potpourri post - who cares what ya call it if it's got this much good stuff in it, eh?
