Passage from Time Out London
Here's the quote that I read out loud during Innovate Publicity Now:"Word of mouth is key to the movement's success, Pure Evil Says: 'Street artists are more aware of the art marketplace now. But it's seeing what everyone else is doing that makes you want to step up your act. We're not doing it to be accepted by galleries but by our peers. Street art doesn't rely on reviews; there are no tastemakers.' Instead, he says, the internet is best for spreading the word: 'If someone does something…See More

Bernice L. McFadden said… - Dear Lauren:
You may not know me or my work, but I am the national bestselling, award winning novelist of six critically acclaimed novels who has been twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction.
On Jan 9th, 2010 my debut novel, SUGAR will celebrate its 10th anniversary and in order to commemorate this milestone I am campaigning to sell 10,000 copies between now and that date.
“Bernice L. McFadden's first novel begins with the brief, poetic description of a crime so startling that the reader is helplessly drawn in, as if a bright red door stood ajar on a bleak and forbidding house. Pearl Taylor's daughter, Jude, has been found murdered and mutilated near a field at the edge of town. "The murder had white man written all over it," writes McFadden. "But no one would say it above a whisper. It was 1940. It was Bigelow, Arkansas. It was a black child. Need any more be said?" In the years that follow, Pearl catches sight of Jude in so many strangers that when Sugar Lacey comes to town and sets up her unwholesome "business" in the house next door, she doesn't know whether to believe what she sees in Sugar's face: a striking similarity to Jude, dead 15 years. In her sedate but supple prose--rising at times to a light, unforced lyricism in the description of landscape or character--the author perfectly renders the closed and protective society of a small Southern town, the superstitions, gossip, and prying.”
I’m asking that you purchase a copy of SUGAR for yourself, a friend or family member. And yes, KINDLE purchases count.
If you could help spread the word by blogging, twittering and Face-booking my campaign, it would mean the world to me.
Peace & Light,
Bernice L. McFadden

Getting lots of great content and we want to keep things lively but also give things time to be seen. Are you around this weekend? I want to talk to you more about well, everything -- GWN and SHE WRITES.
