[F]oto (er... video, that is) Friday

I'm sorry this is so dark! And please forgive me where I talked in circles; it was unscripted.

Kim Michele Richardson is a dear heart with a special spirit, all of which becomes clear as you read The Unbreakable Child.

To find out more about Kimmi or the book, visit her author's website or her blog.

  2. What, you did all that talk unscripted? Wow! I am very impressed. You'll do so great at publicizing your own book, when time comes (very soon!)

  3. You're really good in front of a camera!

    First take?

    Maybe you should think of a career in television...

    Sounds like a great book. One that would really tug at my emotions. I'm thankful for people who have the courage to tell their stories and be a help and inspiration to others. Thanks for the recommendation.

    Lori - I sure hope so! And thanks, that was wonderful of you to say. :)

    FringeGirl - Yeah, first take. ;) TV? Naw...

    Linda - "Compelling" is a perfect word! I wish I'd thought of that while I was taping. LOL

    Melanie - Maybe we can trade services? ;) And I LOVE that WV. Can't tell you how much.

    Jenni - Thank you! I never thought I would be, but goes better than I ever expect it to.

    Jody - That's what I love most about video posts; that extra something you get about a personality.

  14. OMG, I forgot to comment on the corn nuts. That reminds me of the place I waited tables in college. We had those peanuts where people throw the shells on the floor, so we'd snack on them between tables. Every now and then a peanut skin would adhere to the back of my throat just as I approached a table. Very good first impression. :P

    I'm glad you made it through okay.

  16. T. Anne - Thanks! Mmm... Corn nuts...

    Joanne - I'd like to know what you think when you've read it!

    Terri - I hope it gets lots more promotion!

    Wendy - Aw, thanks. :)

    Jessica - What's for lunch? Can I come? LOL

    Melanie - ROFL! I once approached a table with the dessert tray and a cold. Didn't have a kleenex *snort* so I had *snort* to sniff heavily *snort* through my rundown of the *snort* goods. Needless to day, they didn't want any dessert. ;)

    Turk - Thanks and your welcome! :D

    I tried to find Kimmi's book in the bookstore but they didn't have it. So I'll order it from amazon.

    By the way, Janna, you did a great job reviewing Kimmi's book.
