Greetings Family,
Next year 2010, I will celebrate 20 years as a published author!!! The celebrations will begin in October of this year so stay-tuned for details. But I am planning several major events that coincide with my anniversary and the release of WHAT MOTHER NEVER TOLD ME (the sequel to RHYTHMS!). The first is a major launch party in March 2010 the second is a blow-out party during the 2010 Romance Slam Jam Cruise!
I am extending an invitation to the Fan Club Family to join me in celebrating on the Cruise Ship. Below is the information. And the payment plan is manageable. Think about it and join us. Great time for us to all get together!
We are accepting bookings now! While cabins last, a $50 deposit per person will be required at reservation time. After your initial deposit, you will have until October 12, 2009 to pay an additional $150 per person. Final payment is due by February 9, 2010.

Payments are per person and are completely refundable up until February 8, 2010, one day before final payment is due.

To book a spot, call 866-721-3225, referencing group number 62BF31. Because we are booking so far ahead, things are a bit flexible so you don’t need to know your roommates or type of cabin at this time. Think of the initial deposit as just a placeholder with more concrete decisions to be come later.

The rates include gratuity, taxes and fees and are per person:

Interior Cabins 1st and 2nd persons $544.43

3rd and 4th persons $389.43

Welcome to my fanclub. I am truly honored that you decided to join and want to be a special part of my world. When I started writing waaaay back in 1990, I was so unprepared for where this writing life would take me. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I would meet people from all across the country (and out) who believed in me, loved what I put on a page and actually wanted more!!
The longevity that I have had in this very fluctuating business has been more than just a miracle. It's been because of you, and you and you. All of you who have loved and supported me all these years--both near and far. I could not have survived without you.

So to thank you all for the love, I wanted to have a place that is JUST FOR US!!! And that means JUST FOR US. You must be a member, no one else has access to the information and what goes on in Donna's Fan Club .......(I can't heaaaar you) Stays in Donna's Fan Club!
