ROBUST discussion

Hello, I'm Dakota. I'm just publishing LE MANS a novel, the first in my series of 13 motor racing books collectively called RUTHLESS TO WIN.

Before I go on about myself, can I just say a huge thanks to Claudine, Sue and Keryl for helping Andre Jute edit my books. Without you it wouldn't have happened.

I'm the mother of a teenage daughter, the wife of a dreamy inventor, and a working engineer. We live in Switzerland. I like reading well-written novels of suspense, so that is what I work at writing. There's much more about me on Cookie's Book Club Blog ( http://cookiesbookclub.blogspot.com/2... ) if you are curious and have the stomach for it.

PS It wasn't my idea to put my face on the front cover of my book!

Welcome to the madhouse, Dakota.

Welcome.

Hi, Dakota!

Eh up.

Welcome! It has been a pleasure helping out.

Welcome Dakota. I have enjoyed being a part of the event that is RUTHLESS TO WIN!

Thank you to all of you for the warm welcome, and a special thank you to those who gave up their spare (and reading!) time to volunteer for editorial duties. (Why does that sound vaguely like something from Gilbert & Sullivan?)

Dakota's next series - Broadway's backstabbing behind the curtains thrilling capers...all set to music. Audiobooks only.

And occasionally we'll let a backstabbed producer fall through the curtains into the laps of the first row punters...

You might want to check this out. I'm sure Andre will speak for you.

Editing Dakota was such a communal effort, it would be harder to find an editor who won't stand up for her! Dakota's anyway such a standout, we can leave here to Tahlia's best judgement.
