Tuesday is the big day! It’s the big launch of my friend’s first novel, “The Rooms Are Filled.”

My friend's beautifully written novel.

My friend’s beautifully written novel.

It’s a touching story of a young boy who was forced to leave his family farm after his father suddenly dies and his mom can’t afford to keep the land. They move to suburban Chicago and he struggles to adjust to a very different environment. That same struggle is taking place with his young, closeted teacher and they form a beautiful bond.

Jess is a full-time mom of two great kids and she deftly juggled them while writing this straight-from-the-heart book. Pretty impressive, right? Not to mention, she’s militant about getting enough sleep, and her house didn’t go to pits during the process either. She’s pretty amazing and I’m so excited for her latest baby, this novel that’s published by She Writes Press.

Want to know how she managed to do it all? Curious about the book? Want tips on getting published?

Well, we’re having a BYOB party and anyone can attend! It’s a Google hangout on Tuesday, April 22 at 7 p.m. Central Daylight Time. Here’s the link to the event.

I’ll be there, along with one of my other besties, education consultant Ginny Washburne and all three of us will chat over a nice glass of wine. So, who’s going to join in on the fun?

    • It was very, very fun! Maybe once a month we can all chat and drink together. It wasn’t as emotionally hard as I thought to drink and have fun with you from afar. Also I was thinking there’s a lot of great information in that hangout on publishing, it’d be great to capitalize on that. I’ll shoot you an email. Luv ya!
