A Tribute to Queen Bee

Dorothea (Dottie) Benton Frank, author of so many best selling novels sadly left us earlier this year. I was honored to be a part of a video tribute to her that was shown at the Charleston Post and Courier's Fall Author's luncheon. Funny, talented woman. Click Dottie's picture or the box below to watch the heartwarming tribute to this great lady. 

Ian, Ian Fleming Slept Here

Next time you're in London-towne, check out one of the father of 007's fancy schmancy bachelor digs at 22B Ebury Street. When Ian married his long time mistress, Ann Rothermere, they lived at another house, 16 Victoria Square. During their marriage, Ian would make his annual pilgrimage to Jamaica and his home, GoldenEye. Ann would remain in London entertaining the likes of Noel Coward, Graham Greene and Evelyn Waugh. Meanwhile, Ian would be hard at his gold plated Royal Quiet Deluxe Portable typewriter click clacking out his newest Bond adventure--arguably becoming the world's most famous author. 

Written in Gold
