You look beautiful and so "authory" ! Love your outfit. I have the kindle version of your book and need to get reading it now! If you ever come to MA, I'll buy a hard cover for you to sign : )

Great pictures, Monique. I've been picturing your heroine, Kennedy, looking just like your picture here but with mahogany hair, as you describe. Monique, you're adorable and tiny!! I'll have to adjust my mental picture of Kennedy.

I'm enjoying your book very much. It's obvious you did homework and I'm loving learning about North Africa.

Thank you Maggie, Martha

Suze--I am enjoying this newly found "fame" but I am not indulging because we all know that fame is fickle :-)

Cory--Moi celebrity? not yet! Yes, I am hoping to make beaucoup moola for the 2 years of hard work I put into it...keeping my fingers crossed and counting on my friends and social media to spread the news.

Jody---thank you, you're kind...

Sheila! You like Kennedy! Awesome! Yes, I did tons of research (I am fanatic about research--comes from being a reporter for many years and getting my facts straight). I am so glad you're enjoying it! Made my day that you guys like it...And yes, I am small, 5'3 if you stretch me :-) and I stood next to a guy in one picture that's 6'4 and 250 lbs!

Monique,
Thank you for sharing the pictures. You do look wonderful and happy that you are feeling better. I just checked your book on Amazon and I will be sending for it.

Good luck on the book sales, I'm sure you will sell plenty.
