A Brand New Novel
Josephine Baker, the early-20th-century African-American dancer, comic, and singer–hugely famous in Paris. Did you know that she was also a spy for the French Resistance during WWII?
Oct. 8, 2012 is the four-year anniversary of the release of THE JEWEL OF MEDINA, the much-loved historical novel about A’isha bint Abi Bakr, the youngest and most beloved wife of Islam’s Prophet Muhammad AND the most powerful and influential woman in all of Islam.

Stephanie, perhaps you’ll write a review of Jewel someday — perhaps in 2015 when I get publishing rights back and can (I hope) launch a paperback version. Thank you!
It sounds intriguing. Thanks.
Tweeted and posted on FB.
And I seriously appreciate your desire for the book to bring peace and harmony.
Can’t see a way to follow the blog though.
