Book blurb for You've Got Mail from Japan:
Margie and Sandy, two American expatriate women, meet and become friends while living in Saudi Arabia. After their husbands’ assignments were completed, both women returned to their homes in the United States: Margie to Nevada and Sandy to Texas. Margie soon accompanies her husband on his next assignment to Japan while Sandy remains at home surrounded by her family and friends.
Some things are very private—diaries, phone calls, letters, and emails between friends. You’ve Got Mail from Japan lifts that veil of privacy. This book contains actual emails exchanged between Margie and Sandy, with all the ‘warts’ and misspellings as they were written, on an almost daily basis over the course of a year. The writing is real and down to earth, as only emails between good friends can be. The friendship between these two women shines from the pages and you feel as if you have eavesdropped on a private conversation, but accidentally, and then they smile at you and welcome you into their circle of friendship.
Step into Margie and Sandy's world. Follow their incredible, somewhat quirky and offbeat journey as it actually happened. Share their times of joy, times of sadness, times of highs, and times of lows.
One reader stated, "I love this book! It is like I have broken into someone's computer, hacked their email, and now I am looking at all the juicy details...wow, this is fun!"
Warning: Do not purchase this book if you are looking for a typical travel guidebook or a how-to guide for being a model expatriate wife. You've Got Mail from Japan is not that type of book.

Do you Facebook?
For a long time I resisted joining Facebook. I already belonged to several online groups, mainly writing oriented, and these groups took up enough of what spare time I wanted to devote to online social interaction. I didn't need or want to spend even more time online.
Finally I broke down, at the urging of some of my author friends who already belonged to Facebook, and signed up for my very own Facebook account. It was like joining a secret society where I didn't know the secret handshake. I stumbled around the site trying to find my way.
I joined a couple of groups that looked interesting to me...writer related of course since that is my main interest. I discovered a few people that I already knew from other online groups that I belonged to (not Facebook groups) and invited them to become my Facebook friend. I searched for other people at Facebook that I might know, found some, and invited them to also become my FB friends. One thing led to another and first thing you know I had people inviting ME to become THEIR friend.
I created my very own group, Fans of Kristie Leigh Maguire, and invited people to join. I finally figured out that I could have my very own Official Public Writer Page and created that and invited people to join that.
I now have 109 fans at my Official Writer Page, 463 friends at my regular FB page, and 74 members at my fan page. AND I am enjoying Facebook! Wonders never cease. :)
I have a goal of having 1000 people join my Facebook Official Writer Page. Would YOU please help me reach my goal by joining?
