So happy to be receiving
Above: photo of one of my new store offerings, on my website, http://www.prettykittydogmoonjewelry.com/: "Marry Me" , a party dress bracelet of white gold core encased Venetian hearts, primarily. Pearls, Venetian heart beads, Swarovski rondelle spacers, tiny silver beads, great big Swarovski rounds in Crystal, sterling roses, brushed sterling heart beads, round sterling beads with rhinestones, little hearts of sterling. Quite a lovely bouquet of a bracelet, nest-ce pas? I loved making it!!! PS: extra little open heart on side near clasp. Keep your heart open as you love.



My dear friend Jennifer Dangerfield http://theartofcuriosity.blogspot.com/ has reviewed Links beautifully on her blog and also...and this is the amazing part: she went out of her way to acquire a copy from the Amazon here in the USA, which has the book much earlier than Amazon. co. UK.


Therefore, her review, which is beautiful (just as she is), is on our Amazon, where I get to see it all the time!


Sometimes when someone is that kind and thoughtful, it gets a little overwhelming. I am very grateful. VERY. Thank you, Jennifer. You are a beautiful writer as well as a lovely person.





Kim Miles http://www.kimmiles.com/ has some amazing beads up as I mentioned , and now she has gone and put up a YouTube feature which was only on her blog previously. It is adorable and hysterical. When the little boy says..."_____"





--hey, I am not going to give it away--that's called a spoiler, however, you just want to flip out it's so cute.

Plus watch it and you want another dog. and another kid. THAT'S A LOT FOR me TO SAY! I wish this blogger thing had emoticons. I would be smiling at you, right now!

Glad tidings and good things. Thanks for sharing and that was so incredibly sweet of Jennifer. I'd have already purchased your book...but I know you wanted to send me one so I've waited. Just so you don't think I'm slacking on the review!

Though when Katie and I reviewed each other's books on Amazon some weenie left a review slamming us both for being untrustworthy afterwards. How lame is that?!

I think we want a pig...which is rather like having a dog and a kid rolled into one squealy thing.

I remember, Margot. It was really ridiculous and awful. I was stunned when that person did that...it was hurtful and beynd wrong.

Don't you worry about when I expect people to review--you are essentially a part of the book, because of the interview...that is why you are one of the people, like Kate, and Kim Miles, who will receive a copy from me. I just have to keep mailing out the ones I only just got yesterday for some special purposes. Not purposes that put you all second, but that I made promises concerning. I know you know what I mean! You know even more than I, concerning this sort of stuff! You know everything!!! xox yay Margot!

Jean, it was my pleasure to review your beautiful book. Speaking of beautiful, I LOVE 'Marry Me'!

Miss Margot,

I know that I owe both you & Elizabeth a review too. I received both of your books during a time when I don't think my head was screwed on properly ;-) But I hereby promise that I will tap along the keyboard very soon!

After all the PAIN inflcited on me whilst I waited for 'Sparkletastic' to be published in the UK, I no longer buy the bulk of my reference books via .co.uk. I stick to .com with the consequence that I don't suffer book-stress any more.

My Dearest Jennifer

Just knowing you is reward enough. You owe me nothing. Your work is so joyful to behold that it is a gift I cherish that you share it with us. Truly.

Ms. Jean

Oh I know! I still have to order more of my last book to ship out to folks I owe copies too. There is never enough time! Next time around...I'll help you get more free books if you ask me how. Shhh...did I say that out loud?! Ha.
