			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thank you all again for purchasing copies of my book from Red Rose Publishing.  I&#8217;ve had a lot of people contact me about formats.</p>
<p>So, I want to be sure that when you purchase your copy that you are sure you are buying the copy or your intended reading purposes: .pdf, .lit, .prc, html (zip), .rtf.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re going to read Love&#8217;s Chance on your Kindle or iPhone, .prc format works quite well for me.  Of course, .pdf is great for reading it on your computer.</p>
<p>Now, of course, if you have any sort of problems, you can always contact customer service through Red Rose Publishing, and someone will be able to help you.</p>
<p>Happy reading, and thank you again for all of your support.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A friend of mine, Kaye Manro, nominated me for a Kreativ Blogger award.  I have to say, I am honored, and I thank Kaye for the nomination, but now, I&#8217;ve got to reveal 7 things about myself, and I have to nominate 7 other blogs.</p>
<div id="attachment_355" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 160px"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-355" title="Award Kreativ Blogger" src="http://www.angelakayaustin.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Award-Kreativ-Blogger-150x150.jpg" alt="Kreativ Blogger" width="150" height="150" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Kreativ Blogger</p></div>
<p>So, here goes:</p>
<ol>
<li>At the age of 27, I got my first pet, my wonderful cat, Jasper.</li>
<li>If I could live in another country, it&#8217;d be Italy. (Okay, maybe a few people know that about me, now.  If they read my interview on Melodee Aaron&#8217;s website.)</li>
<li>Love&#8217;s Chance is my first release, but not my first completed manuscript</li>
<li>I don&#8217;t like writing contests</li>
<li>I love fresh fruit</li>
<li>I don&#8217;t like fake sugar</li>
<li>I could veg out all day eating chips and watching movies</li>
</ol>
<p>Okay, now the 7 websites I nominate are:</p>
<ol>
<li><a class="wp-caption" title="Kat Holmes' blog" href="http://www.katluvr130.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Kat Holmes</a></li>
<li><a class="wp-caption" title="LaVerne Thompson" href="http://www.lavernethompson.com/" target="_blank">LaVerne Thompson</a></li>
<li><a class="wp-caption" title="Antonia Tiranth" href="http://www.antoniatiranth.com/" target="_blank">Antonia Tiranth</a></li>
<li><a class="wp-caption" title="Melodee Aaron" href="http://www.melodeeaaron.com/" target="_blank">Melodee Aaron</a></li>
<li><a class="wp-caption" title="CJ England" href="http://www.cjengland.com/" target="_blank">CJ England</a></li>
<li><a class="wp-caption" title="Bookmadness" href="http://bookmadness.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Kim Smith&#8217;s Bookmadness</a></li>
<li><a class="wp-caption" title="Brigits World" href="http://www.brigitsworld.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Brigit Aine</a></li>
</ol>
<p>I hope that you&#8217;ll visit these sites.  They&#8217;ve all supported me in my goals as an author.</p>
