Introducing Margo Candela!
Ta da!!!!!
It is my great pleasure to introduce the absolutely scrumptious Margo Candela to the L.C. as our February Guest Chick! Chicklets, Margo. Margo, chicklets.
There. I feel much better now. I've been thinking about that all week. It's good to get it off my chest.
I met Margo at a meeting of Bay Area Chick Lit Writers a couple of years ago. I haven't been able to attend any more meetings, but this lovely group of writers let's me stay in touch via their e-mail loop so I got to hear about it when Margo made her first sale and got her first reviews and all the other lovely firsts that go with that first book which, in Margo's case, is titled Underneath It All or, as it is known in my house, The Book that Ate My Weekend.
I wasn't all that surprised to find that Underneath It All was one of those books that you couldn't put down once you'd picked it up. Nor was I all that surprised to find that it made me do that same snorting dirty laugh that Margo's e-mails often bring about. Plus, it's not everybody that Publisher's Weekly calls "an engaging writer." On the down side, I am feeling really self-conscious about my forearm hair, but what would life be without something to worry about?
If you want to find out exactly how completely engaging Underneath It All is, you can rush right out and buy it or you can send us an e-mail with Under Where? in the subject line to win one of the FIVE copies that the very generous Margo is going to be giving away to lucky L.C. readers.
So welcome to the L.C., Margo! I know it's going to be a great month.

Ha! I was a lucky, lucky soul to get to read UNDERNEATH IT ALL at an early stage because I was asked to give a blurb (my first blurb and wasn't I lucky?)
Welcome Margo, from one former Guest Chick to another!

Welcome Margo! You are in great company here! I usually stick with your run of the mill romance books. After I found this site I have been reading all of the wonderful books our literary chicks write. Congratulations on your first book!

If one Eileen likes you- that is good enough for me. I called the bookstore and asked them to pull a copy for me to pick up so it can eat my weekend too.
