LITERARY EVENT - Austin, Texas
| Date: | Saturday, June 26, 2010 |
| Time: | 5:00pm - 7:00pm |
| Location: | Mitchie's Fine Art Gallery |
| Street: | 7801 N. Lamar Blvd. Building B STE 148 |
| City/Town: | Austin, TX |
This is the official book release event in Austin, TX. Copies of Black Diamond and Coffee Confession will be available for sale. I will conduct a reading, giveaways, and much more. YEAH!!!!!! PRE-ORDER YOUR COPY TODAY! Please visit the site http://www.janesedixon.com/ and purchase a copy of Black Diamond and you can also RSVP for my book release parties—in Houston, Austin, and one online. Pre-release orders will come to you before the national book release date and I will create a special place for you in my heart. (aaahhhh….) ABOUT PRE-ORDERS Pre-order sales are VERY important for the success of a book; it's the launching pad that gives the book legs. The publishing industry pays close attention to these numbers, and believe me, that's important. As an independently published author it's crucial for me to get the word out and drum up early book sales. So please, pre-order your copy today, and urge your friends, family, co-workers, and everyone you know to do the same! (Thanks Trice!) ABOUT BLACK DIAMOND Camille Blackwell, an undercover FBI agent, poses as a jewelry purchaser in an international diamond trading company in hopes of identifying the domestic players in a vicious rebel group suspected of trafficking conflict diamonds. The Bureau requests CIA renegade Marc Fulton’s assistance with sweeping international intelligence to identify the major rebel organizations with finances and stateside connections strong enough to evade criminal prosecution, despite Camille’s objections. Sparks fly when Marc and Camille meet, their attraction is instant and tense. However, both resolve to focus on the case. But when Camille receives an encrypted memory stick from a murdered co-worker Marc may be the only person she can trust. Black Diamond is the eagerly anticipated debut novel by Ja’Nese Dixon. True love, like black diamonds, is rare and precious; but when murder and a persistent criminal threaten a frail relationship, can love triumph? In a borderless game of cat and mouse, will a chance at happily ever after be thwarted at the deadly scheme of the faceless leader of the Imperial Dynasty? SEE YOU THERE! |

Join Us In The Challenge
Do you need something to do this summer? Have you had it with reruns and senseless reality shows? Then why not partner with Literary Wonders! And The Author’s Hideaway, along with a host of other literary groups and sources as we join Written Magazine’s 30 Books in 90 Days Challenge.
The challenge, which starts June 27th, challenges readers to put on their reading hat and open their imagination to the world of books. This is an annual event and Literary Wonders! and The Author’s Hideaway had a blast with the challenge, although we did not meet our thirty books. However, this year will be much, much different. We plan to exceed our goals of 30 books and 30 reviews. For more information on the challenge, please go to Written Magazine’s website and join in the fun.
Currently, Literary Wonders! and The Author’s Hideaway is compiling a list of books we plan on reading. Our list is not complete as we plan on adding books as we go along, but check below to see if anything on our partial list piques your interest. If you would like to add your book to our reading list and have it reviewed, please forward a copy of your book, during the reading period, to Literary Wonders! 30/90 REVIEW Post Office Box 13727 Greensboro, NC 27405 – 3727. Or if you have an e-book in e-book format that you would like to add, please send it to info@literarywonders.com.
This is a great time to utilize and support your local public library, your independent book stores, chain book stores and online retailers. For those who are not aware, by signing up for newsletters from retailers such as Barnes and Noble and Borders, you will receive coupons on a regular basis for 20% to 50% off books. Online stores such as Amazon sell books at a discount and will usually grant you FREE basic shipping and handling if you order $25 or more. If you buy a book and decide that you don’t want to keep it in your collection after you read it, Amazon has a resale program that allows you to recover some of your costs. 
E-book readers are all the craze these days. From the Kindle to the Nook to the infamous iPad, books are more portable and easier to access than ever. Most e-book readers will fit in an average size purse and can hold up to 500 hundred books. Try carrying 500 regular books at one time – not gonna happen! With the publishing industry focusing a lot of their time and their marketing to e-books, many of them are reasonably priced and a lot of them are FREE.
So what are you waiting for? You don’t have to wait for the reading challenge to start, you can get started now.
This is also and excellent time to challenge our children to read. They need to exercise their young minds during the off-season. Although they may not read 30 books in 90 days, they will sure have fun weaving in and out of adventure after adventureOur Partial Summer Reading List

Faith and Fiction Update 11:39 EST
We just got word that ReShonda Tate Billingsley – The Devil is a Lie, is at the podium giving her tips on How to Take Your Book to Film.
Faith and Fiction Update 10:30am EST
My inside sources tell me that panel discussions are going very well as author Dee Stewart moderates. Some of the panel participants are Kimberla Lawson Roby, Angela Benson, Kimberly Cash Tate and Victoria Christopher Murrary.
The Faith and Fiction Retreat happening now in Atlanta, Georgia
The Faith and Fiction Retreat runs from June 18th – 19th in beautiful Atlanta, Georgia. In addition to its founder and host, Tiffany L. Warren, some of the key players this weekend are Kimberla Lawson Roby – Be Careful What You Pray For, Victoria Christopher – Lady Jasmine, and Sherri L. Lewis – Selling My Soul.
The Faith and Fiction Fellowship started in 2005 when Christian Fiction author, Tiffany L Warren, invited several of her sister-authors on a tour to share the ministry behind their writing. The authors, Angela Benson, Latonya Mason, Yolonda Tonette Sanders, Leslie J. Sherrod, Mata Elliott, and Bonnie Hopkins visited with Women's Ministries and Bookclubs in Atlanta, Houston, Baltimore, New York, Washington D.C. and Charlotte. The events were uplifiting and entertaining, with the authors sharing their testimonies and fellowshipping with readers.
In August of 2007, the first annual Faith and Fiction Retreat was held in St. Simons Island, GA with the theme "Words for the Soul". It was truly a time of refreshing and sisterhood as book clubs from across the nation joined together for the weekend. It was an intimate setting where readers really got the opportunity to get up close and personal with some of their favorite faith fiction authors and also discover some new authors. The featured authors were Jacquelin Thomas, Norma L. Jarrett, and Tiffany L. Warren. Also featured in the panels were Shelia Lipsey, Mimi Jefferson, Lacricia Peters, Latonya Mason and Becky DeWitt.
For the 2008 conference the theme was "Words of Life" because authors who write faith fiction truly have the ability to speak life and healing into situations and mind sets. The vision is to recognize those who have accepted such a tremendous calling and to give back to the book clubs and women's ministries that support them.
Conference Host - Tiffany L Warren, author of "What a Sista Should Do", "Farther than I Meant to Go, Longer than I Meant to Stay" and "The Bishop's Daughter" (release date, January 2009). For more information about Tiffany and her books visit her website www.tiffanylwarren.com

REVIEW: Scattered Lies by Madison
Date: June 11, 2010
Title: Scattered Lies
Author: Madison
ISBN 10: 0-9825260-0-8
ISBN 13: 978-0-9825260-0-2
Pages: 260
Publisher: Influential Writers Publishing
Cover: Soft Cover
Reviewer: Adellia Whitson-Stafford– Literary Wonders!
Rating: 5 Stars
Gabrielle Brightman is a powerful attorney who has worked hard for everything she has. She has taken on clients that no one else wanted. Her biggest case just happens to be getting her husband Greg out of jail. First, she has to learn the truth about why he is there.
Tony Flowers is a rapper and owner of his own record company - thanks to Greg. He seems to have it all; money, fans, and a beautiful girlfriend that loves him for who he is and not what he has. He also has a secret that he wants to take to his grave and will do anything to make that happen.
Denise Taylor used to be Greg’s right hand woman. She was the one that seemed to keep everyone in their place and she knew the crew’s secrets. When Greg went to prison she was forced to go legit and now she wants to live a peaceful life and leaving her street life behind her. She soon finds out that not everyone wants her to live happily ever after.
Morgan Marciano is the niece of Denise Taylor. She is a beautiful fourteen-year- old girl with a bright future ahead of her. She has a promising future but considered herself “different” because she isn’t into things that other girls her age are. She knows that beauty isn’t everything and wishes that people around her would learn the same thing. Unfortunately, her beauty is everything to others and she may have to pay a heavy price.
I give this book a 5. It is a definite page-turner. My only suggestion for people who haven’t read it is to wait for the next one. If not, you will get to the last page and reach for part two only to find out that there isn’t one! To Madison, please do not keep us waiting too long.

Meet Rick Bonner
RICK is a professional singer/songwriter who currently resides in the UK. Mr. Bonner is also a poet.
"I love poems that transport you to a different place and focus on feelings that are difficult to express in everyday life. The sun, moon, stars, mountains and rivers are universal themes lodged deep within our unconscious minds and evoke I believe many commonly shared emotions that help to transport the reader to the end of the poem."

YOU FILL MY EYES
You fill my eyes with complicit adoration, I would lay down my life to see you smile.
My helpless heart skips a beat when you are near me, now I have crossed this tempestuous river of denial.
You fill my eyes with the splendor of your beauty, let me hold and protect you from demonic storms.
Come dance with me beneath the shooting stars and let the purity of my love keep you warm.
You fill my eyes with anticipation, take my hand let me whisk you away.
I will show you bright colors to light up your world, underneath the moonlight by New-Hope bay.
You fill my eyes with surrender; I would scour these mountains for a single kiss.
Let me make you my life and my world, my love, lord I have never yielded like this.
You fill my eyes with sweet surrender, leave it all behind and become part of my life.
Don’t think hard or too long, take a risk and be strong and forever fill my eyes.
You fill my eyes with complicit adoration; I would do anything to see you smile.
My helpless heart skips a beat when you are near me, now I have crossed this dark river of denial

Meet Patricia Neely Dorsey
Patricia Neely Dorsey's Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia-A Life in Poems is "a true celebration of the south and things southern." The author states , "There are so manynegative connotations associated with Mississippi and the south in general. In my book, using childhood memories, personal thoughts and dreams, I attempt to give a positive glimpse into the southern way of life. I try to show that there is much is more to Mississippi and the south than all of the negatives usually portrayed .I invite readers to Meet Mississippi (and the south) Through Poetry ,Prose and The Written Word."
SOUTHERN LIFE
If you want a glimpse of Southern life,
Come close and walk with me;
I'll tell you all the simple things,
That you are sure to see.
You'll see mockingbirds and bumblebees,
Magnolia blossoms and dogwood trees,
Caterpillars on the step,
Wooden porches cleanly swept;
Watermelons on the vine,
Strong majestic Georgia pines;
Rocking chairs and front yard swings,
Junebugs flying on a string;
Turnip greens and hot cornbread,
Coleslaw and barbecue;
Fried okra, fried corn, fried green tomatoes,
Fried pies and pickles too.
There's ice cold tea that's syrupy sweet,
And cool, green grass beneath your feet;
Catfish nipping in the lake,
And fresh young boys on the make.
You'll see all these things
And much, much more,
In a way of life that I adore.
Copyright 2008 Patricia Neely-Dorsey
from Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia-A Life In Poems
Patricia Neely-Dorsey is a 1982 graduate of Tupelo High School in Tupelo, Mississippi... located in the beautiful red clay "Hills" of Mississippi..and yes, the birthplace of Elvis Presley. She received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology from Boston University in Boston, Massachusetts. After living for almost 20 years in Memphis, Tennessee, working in the mental health field she returned to her hometown in August 2008.
Reflections, Her first book of poetry was published in Febraury 2008 (GrantHouse Publishers)
Patricia currently live in Tupelo with her husband James,son Henry,and Miniature Schnauzer, Happy. She is a proud, active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.,an avid reader and passionate writer.
Patricia says that she has always considered herself a "Goodwill Ambassador" for Mississippi and the south.
She feels that we can bridge many gaps of misunderstanding across regional, racial, cutural, generational and economic lines by simply telling our stories.
Reflections has been called, among other things, a poetic autobiography and a love letter to the south. The author agrees with both.
