Secondly,do you now have a plan of how to "de-magnetize" yourself or help others with this? If so, what a great follow up book ??? Hello Karla,

I tend to classify the genre as women's fiction or contemporary women's fiction. Most people call it chick lit because of the humor, but I think the story goes a little deeper than typical chick lit. The main character is on a quest for something more than the perfect shoe or handbag. It really is more of a romantic comedy but that's a label we usually put on movies, not books. Maybe I'll call it romantic comedy contemporary women's fiction chick lit. :) And my editor told me to put "A Novel" on the cover. Bonehead that I am, I didn't remember until after the illustrator finalized the cover. So I get that comment quite often. A lot of folks think it's non fiction Rhonda,

Every time I saw the cover I thought it was a non-fiction book. Now I'm curious about the genre. What would you classify it as? I love it. People talking in your head. I know that's right and the thing is they won't stop. You have to get them down on paper or something. They really come alive.
