STORIES FROM BEHIND THE RED DOOR

This evening my first television documentary aired on CMN public access television. I am really happy with how it turned out. You can watch it on www.mydols.tv.

I spent hours on it. It was a true labor of love. I tried to be so independent, only asking for help if I absolutely needed it. But in the end, Joe, Jay, Chris, and James from CMN all helped me. Jay even told me he wants to enter it for an award which is amazing because it is my first show.

HOLIDAY CHEER

I have had a really wonderful week. I surround myself with the coolest, greatest, nicest people on earth and it keeps me focused and happy.

On Wednesday my writers group did a reading for Stories from BEHIND THE RED DOOR at Gilda's Club. I realized how attached I've become to my students. I feel like they're my kids. Honestly. I follow them around with a video camera and I cry over their every accomplishment. Today we all did a radio show at http://www.metrochickradio.com/. They all looked so professional in the studio with their headsets on! You can listen to the broadcast on the Internet.

On Thursday I had a guitar lesson with Kemp. He has been teaching me (bless his patient heart) for SIX years. I consider him one of my dearest friends. I designed him some business cards and they arrived on his birthday (Friday). He loved them. If you live in metro Detroit and want to learn how to guitar, give him a call. He's the BEST!

On Friday THE MYDOLS taped a video at CMN. Joe Johnson is producing a Mydols' version of Winter Wonderland. He figures he'll have it done by Tuesday. I can't wait to see it. My son Dylan was the cameraman so I'll be especially proud of the finished product. I LOVE my band mates. April looked adorable on camera. She has the cutest expressions. Wensdy look amazing. It's hard to believe she just had a baby. Wensdy also made some Mydols' dolls. Check out her blog to see pic at http://www.mydols.com/.

MAGICAL NIGHT

Last night the girls in my memoir writing class did readings at Gilda's Club in Royal Oak. There was a really great turnout (my parents and mother-in-law were there-thanks-I love you!) and things went really smoothly. I was so proud of my students. It was great to hear the audience react to their essays. After they read, they signed books. We sold quite a few. You can buy the book on-line through Lulu.com. (http://www.lulu.com/content/4745605) ALL the proceeds go to Gilda's Club--a free cancer support community.

On Saturday, my Gilda girls will be on the radio talking about our book. They'll be on http://www.metrochickradio.com/ with the fabulous Lisa Marie.

I continue to work on a documentary too. I shot some video last night. I hope to have the show on the air before Christmas. I really love editing, but it sure is time comsuming. I love the staff at CMN who have been so helpful and encouraging during the process.

KIM LYBRAND

I am really proud of the new website I designed for PR guru Kim Lybrand. Check it out at www.kimlybrandpr.com.

THAT"S MY GIRL!

My sister, Terry, had to go to Korea on business and she hooked up with our former foreign exchange student Jee Yeon Kim. I received this photo this morning taken in Seoul.

I am so jealous! I would give anything to see my little girl again. She looks so grown up. I miss her so much.

GIRLS GETAWAY GUIDE

I would like to invite all you rockin’ moms to check out Casey Wohl’s launch of the Girls Getaway Guide to Orlando and Girls Getaway Guide to Key West. Check it out at
http://shop.girlsgetawayguide.net/main.sc.

I got to take a sneak peak of the guide and I am already packing my bathing suit. (It’s currently FREEZING in suburban Detroit.) Casey has figured it all out for me--where to stay, where to eat, where to shop, and best of all where to get pampered. After 15 years of spoiling kids, it's my turn!

There truly is something for everyone in the guide. If a bar and cabaret isn’t your thing, then maybe you’d be interested in taking a scenic tour. The variety of suggestions is crazy cool.

And while you’re at it, register for Casey’s SPECIAL 12 days 'til Christmas giveaway. The prizes are so amazing...just take a look at them...

The winners will be selected on each of the 12 business days starting Dec. 8-23, with the Grand Prize selected on Dec. 24. Each day leading up to Christmas, a terrific Girls Getaway Guide prize will be given away to a randomly-selected entrant.

Yesterday Casey's blog tour stopped at Dominque's blog and tomorrow on December 4th, the blog tour will continue with Wendy VanHatten at Travels and Escapes.
