Hello My Many Writer Friends -

Most of you know me by now (I hope!). I'm Nancy Mills and I teach the Spirited Woman Workshop across the country and I recently began moderating the Spirited Woman Circle - which is this powerful 1-hour phone conversation series with famous women authors and actresses. Our first call was with Janet Fitch of "White Oleander" fame - and the call was a great success.

Our second Spirited Woman Circle conversation is on April 4 with Frances Halpern, the host of NPR's popular "Beyond Words" radio show. Authors and wordsmith across the country kill to get on Frances's show. The woman is a dynamo!

Frances has never done a teleseminar before, and in her conversation she will talk about how she went from radio guest to popular host, what makes an author interesting, the best way to get on a radio show, how to promote your book, and more.

In the second half of the call you'll be able to ask Frances questions about your book, your writing, and more.

As a fellow writer - and from my heart, I urge you to sign-up for France's call. She has so much insightful information to offer. To sign-up and to learn more about the series, go to http://www.TheSpiritedWoman.com/spirited_woman_circle/

Both Dotsie and Miss Georgia Richardson (of BWS and "JawJaw" Queendom fame) have signed up for the whole 8-part series - and they were both on Janet Fitch's call. Here's what Georgia wrote as a thank you to me after the call. She's amazing.

"Simply THANK YOU. It was excellent. After I take care of some business, I'll go into BWS and sing your praises. Very nicely done. Very professional. And I'm VERY happy I joined. No regrets here. The one thing that was such a pleasant surprise to both Dotsie and myself was how REAL Janet (look at me, calling her by her first name!) was. We loved that about her. Add us to her groupie list!"

That's the whole point of this series. It's an "up close & personal" chance to chat with women you might never have a chance to meet. I look forward to you joining us.

All my best,

Nancy, thanks for posting this.

I was on the call and it was delightful, inspirational and educational.

I can't wait for the next one.

Can you explain to me how a teleseminar works? Do you call a number or what?

A teleseminar works this way. You call a "bridge" phone line - which means many women can get on the call at the same time.

The caller, which is you, pays for any long-distance charges from your area code. But, there are many 1 cent a minute calling plans these days and great phone plans.

Some teleseminars are free in terms of a registration fee. Our teleseminar is only $15 - which must be paid in advance.

Women from all over the country join in the call. It is great fun and a wonderful way to communicate.

I hope this helps you Dianne. I'd love to have you join us.

Best,

Thank You, Nancy.

I think I might join.

Yes, Dotsie, it was informative and I loved it. As I said, no regrets here. Nancy does a good job as hostess with the mostees as my kids use to say.

Course she should...I taught her everything she knows....what? Oh peeshaw...would I lie?

Okay, okay...good grief...tough room.

Yes....Georgia...if truth be told...you lie through your queenly teeth. Any fool knows that a spirited woman stands ABOVE a queen anyday on the throne.

I'm now going to tell my mother that you taught me everything I know. Oh-ma-god (is that how they say it in Alabama?) she is going to be upset.

Chat with you on April 4 - and you know what? I can't wait.

Best, Nancy
