I couple of days later, when Barbara was leaving, I got a frantic but happy call "She touched my hand!!". Brenda then proceeded to tell me Barbara was just the same as on TV even after all these years, a gracious person, but piled into the taxi head first, a very Jeannie-like thing to do. I now have a granddaughter named Genie.nightreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00616455345918702775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-37275441037253301842010-02-08T20:00:32.934-05:002010-02-08T20:00:32.934-05:00My favorite celeb on Twitter has to be Susan Branc...My favorite celeb on Twitter has to be Susan Branch!!

He was determined to talk to her and didn't believe he might have to go home without it happening, due to all the other people lining up to speak with her. <br />When finally she leaned forward (he was in a wheelchair that day) and took his hand, she let him go on, and on, and on, and on ... while others had to wait ... she was very patient and kind, a real sweet lady.Blondi Blathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15656970490122824720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-33878693790293883962010-02-08T18:26:39.827-05:002010-02-08T18:26:39.827-05:00Loved your blog!!

Ended up being a life-changing happenstance, when she talked me into joining Story Circle Network. I'm a big fan of Susan Branch too, and have most all of her books. I think her strong sense of place, and wonderful slice of life drawings have probably influenced my blog and writing.Hill Country Hippiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08723660054417859671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-71873412744077894632010-02-08T15:07:40.690-05:002010-02-08T15:07:40.690-05:00My heroine, Vicky Hill, aspires to be the next Chr...My heroine, Vicky Hill, aspires to be the next Christiane Amanpour of CNN fame - a fact I mention in Vicky's adventures. A lot. <br /> It took me literally two years, to find an address for Ms Amanpour. I sent her my quirky Vicky Hill mysteries without expecting a reply. A couple of months later I got an email from her assistant saying that Christiane was enjoying reading them. I am still tickled pink about that.Hannah Dennisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02480842784992747246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4125103167537250391.post-42506506406319815092010-02-08T15:02:23.574-05:002010-02-08T15:02:23.574-05:00Welcome Country Girl, Mozart's Girl, Sandra, a...Welcome Country Girl, Mozart's Girl, Sandra, and Angietink.

Famous (at least in Boston) TV personality, fantastic writer, she's so sweet in person, and really generous with her time for speaking events, conferences, and SINC-NE board activities. When she's up on the TV in my gym doing a promo for the 11 pm news, I jump up, point, and say, "I know her!"

I thought about writing her many times when I lived in Ca.but never did, then I found her on twitter and was so surprized when she tweeted back to me. She doesn't know how thrilled she made me.
