Happy Debut, Deb Jenny!
Deb News:
Deb Gail’s Cancer is a Bitch received this great endorsement from Jon Clinch, acclaimed author of Finn: “Gail Konop Baker has achieved the near-impossible: She’s given us real life — funny, sad, intimate, heartbreaking, and hopeful — on the page. To write that way is her gift, and it’s a gift to readers too.”
Deb Jenny had the great pleasure of meeting Deb Lisa (finally!) while joining her on her fabulous segment on the syndicated morning show Daytime in Tampa. The show will air Monday, February 4 in the following stations: WFLA/ Tampa, FL, WRBL/Columbus, GA, WNCN/Raleigh, NC, WCWJ/ Jacksonville, FL, WSAV/Savannah, GA, WCBD/Charleston, SC.
Deb Jenny will also appear on Richmond’s Virginia This Morning on Thursday, February 7.
There’s a lovely feature on her publisher’s website on Sleeping with Ward Cleaver along with an interview between her and Natale Stenzel (whose fun novel Pandora’s Box also debuted this week).
Lastly, she’ll be visiting the fabulous Killer Fiction blog on Monday, February 4 (and where you can read a post today about an anthology in which Deb Jenny is a contributor, the proceeds of which go entirely to a shelter for abused women). And on Tuesday (or Wednesday) she’ll be at the fun Stephanie Elliot’s blog, Manic Mommy.
