Why am I giving away copies of David Sedaris' When You Are Engulfed By Flames? Because I was so tickled that Amazon linked my book with his, that's why!
I'm also giving them away (one each, to five people picked at random who leave a comment on this blog post letting me know you've posted this YouTube QUEEN OF THE ROAD video on your blog - you have exactly one week) to celebrate being roasted on Chris Eldin's blog, Book Roast! Since Chris is allowing me to give away a signed copy of QUEEN OF THE ROAD to the winner of her contest, I thought I wouldn't do the same.
Here's the video:

I purchased your book on a whim yesterday and haven't been able to put it down. I absolutely adore it! And, yes, your YouTube video is now up on my blog!

I'm currently reading your book for a book club with friends. Sounds like a great trip so far!

Okay, I'll play. :)
(Already have Sedaris's book, btw, but pleased to help spread the word about QotR!)

I've done my part (whether it's for good or for evil, I'm not quite sure).

Melinda - we've already "chatted," but thanks so much, again. Yay for whims! (How do ya think I ended up on a bus for a year?)
But Jenny - how did you find out about QUEEN OF THE ROAD? I LOVE bookclubs! (Been in a fabulous one myself for over a decade.)
Softdrink and JES - thanks so much!

Received your book yesterday...and just finished it. My husband purchased (on the sly) a 29 ft RV, that has been sitting in our driveway since March of this year. It hasn't moved. We are planning a trip...but after reading your book I cant wait to get on the road. I live in the middle of the Mojave Desert and it's 110 degrees out today. I went in the RV and kick on the AC, laid down on the coach with my Dachshund Ozzy, and laughed so loud I thought The neighbors would wonder what I was doing. Thanks Doreen for a wonderful trip through the states. I cant wait to get on my journey now.Best wishes to you and Tim.
