David and I are on Cape Cod this week, doing six book talks in five days. Tonight we got to our hotel, settled in, and then went out to dinner. On the way there, we turned on the radio and I heard my own voice! This was an interview with Mindy Todd, done on Friday. It was pretty weird, hearing myself as others hear me.
Being interviewed by Mindy Todd was a great pleasure. She had obviously done a careful read of the book. She was very organized with her comments and questions, which makes it easy for someone to follow the story. I had heard other interviews by her and knew that she is very insightful, but I was struck by that again during our interview.
To listen to the interview, you can go here. (Click on my picture on the right.)

Wow! That’s a busy week Saloma. Who organises all those talks and interviews? Is that your own marketing, or the publisher’s?
And I know what you mean about hearing yourself as others hear you. Whenever I hear my own recorded voice I think it’s my brother talking, which is very disconcerting.
What a wonderful interview!! Have fun with your busy itinerary. Enjoy it all! :)
Saloma, I’m trying to catch up after a summer of busyness but I’m out of breath!! You’ve had a wonderful summer and made it through the hurricane. You’re healing from a nasty fall on your bike (oh, that brings back not too distant memories – hurts more when you are 50 than when you were 5) AND you are interviewiing all over!! How exciting and I’m so proud of you! More catching up to do, now…
I, too, am trying to catch up after a very busy summer. I listened to your radio interview and it was so very nice to hear your voice. Now, I know you just a little bit better. Thank you for sharing so much here.
