Welcome Guest Chick Kimberly Llewellyn
I'm just home from RT and completely exhausted from meeting all the wonderful readers and booksellers (pics here) and so pleased to announce our special guest for May, my friend Kimberly Llewellyn!!!
Not only is she brilliant and beautiful, she used to be a professional wrestler!! I'm so not making that up!! Please feel free to ask her about it. :) But here's the official scoop:
Kimberly Llewellyn, aka "the wedding writer," writes for Berkley Books, part of Penguin Putnam in New York. Her recent releases include two humorous comedic women’s fiction novels in trade paperback, Tulle Little, Tulle Late (Aug. 2006) and the Quest for the Holy Veil ( March 2007). Prior to that, she’s written three short contemporary romances (Avalon and Kensington).
Over the years, she has written various articles for newsletters and the Romance Writers Report and stories for the confessions market. She’s given writing workshops and online chats. She also enjoys promoting "fiction for women" to the media, as well as to organizations of all kinds (e.g., arts councils, Miss Florida State Pageant for Miss America, bridal expos, etc.). She makes guest appearances on television, including the shows, Your Turn, Daytime, and Mornings Around the Bay, for its weeklong Apprentice Authors Series.
Tulle Little, Tulle Late made the Book Sense Notable Pick List, is a Cataromance Reviewers Choice nominee, and is a finalist in the Oklahoma More than Magic contest.
And don't forget that with guest Chicks, there are always prizes for the Chicklets!! Kimberly will be announcing those soon - details to follow. Please join me in giving a big LC welcome to Kimberly!!
hugs,
Alesia

OMG! Thanks! I'm so psyched to be hanging with a cool CL posse for a month! (Oh gosh, should I be commenting here? Is that a premature blogulation? Eeek! See you tomorrow!) --Kimberly

Hi Kimberly, New here and it's nice to meet you.
Everytime I visit here I learn something new. A wrestler huh? That would make a great story line.
