  It is Tuesday. Time to tall turkey. Monday's madness is over, and Wednesday will take us over the hump, so Tuesday it is for some serious discussion with authors. Tuesday talks mean to address authors in waiting and self-published authors who would like to go a more traditional route or who would at least like to take their steps with a publisher by their side.

Since the publication of her book, A Movie Lover's Search for Romance (a great read, by the way, and winner of two book awards), Joanna Charnas has maintained a blog about movies and stars, much in line with her book, but also somewhat different.

Jaonna has authored three other books as well, also award winners. Read more posts about Joanna and all her books HERE . Sign up for the MSI Press LLC newsletter.
