Debbie Macomber came to Des Moines and I had a chance to chat with her. First, you should know that she has published ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY BOOKS. I feel this merits writing out the words for such a huge number. And she's just a great woman. Kind, humble, funny and a girl who loves to tell and hear a great story. She's married to her high school sweetheart, she loves her family, and she loves to eat and cook.
She also mentioned she writes in a turret.

I have asked Marc to build me a turret, but he politely declined. Perhaps I should sic Debbie on him.
ONE HUNDRED FIFTY BOOKS. ONE HUNDRED FORTY MILLION COPIES IN PRINT.
Listen, as long as we're talking numbers, PEOPLE. Where are my Amazon peeps? Remember my promise to give away a Kindle or Nook if I have 200 reviews on Amazon by June 1, 2011? We're at 36. THIRTY-SIX. Come on, friends. Help a girl out! If I see a grand surge, I'll happily extend the deadline, but you must meet me half way!
Everyone who sends me a link to their review (e-mail kimberlystuartgiveaway@gmail.com) gets a free little something in the mail from me. So please write a few honest words about Operation Bonnet! I don't like to beg. It's unbecoming, and plus, it didn't work with the turret idea.
If we don't get to 200, I'll still draw for something. I think you thought I was kidding about a garden gnome, but maybe you shouldn't test me.
I can't seem to get that photo any smaller, but that might be serendipitous. Stare at those eyeballs and that bushy eyebrow touched with red paint, and pledge "I will write a review. I will write a review." Or take your chances and end up with Creepy Dwarf. Game on!
