Had a fantastic time chatting with Lara Zielinsky

Lara and I shared a wonderful half hour chatting about Playing for First. We talked about where I came up with the idea, the editing and publishing process, and what my newest novel is about. We also discussed women in sports and the difficulties lesbian authors face when attempting to switch over to mainstream publishing, which my newest novel addresses. Here's the link to Lara's website: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/lara-zielinsky. Our interview is at or near the top of her list there on the right. It's a 30 minute show. At the end, I offer three free autographed copies of Playing for First to the first three readers who e-mail me at: ckpaynter@ckpaynter.com. If any of y'all are interested, drop me a line. Lara invited me back when my latest is further into production. I plan to do that since I enjoyed our talk so much Thursday night.

Today, we have friends coming over at one for a nice lunch. It's beautiful here today in Indy. Currently, it's 58 with a high in the upper seventies, low eighties. Have to take Buddy the Wonder Dog to his grandparents, though, so we can eat in peace. Take care all!
