Hey all,

Join me live for an hour on www.artistfirst.com on January 19, 2005 at 7:00 p.m. EST! Hostess Maxine Thompson will be interviewing me on my life, my books, and other related topics. The show will be recorded, so if you miss it, you can listen to the rebroadcast or I can send you the recording as an e-mail attachment. You'll need Windows Media Player. Just click on the link they have on their main page. More information can be found on www.artistfirst.com, which has millions of listeners worldwide. Listeners can e-mail me to get their questions answered live, and the first people to do so will receive free autographed copies of Dance with Your Heart: Tales and Poems That the Heart Tells. The e-mail address to which you send e-mails won't be mine; they'll announce it during the show.

So, listen to me if you can, and pray that I will not make a booboo during this live broadcast! :) E-mail me if you have any questions or comments.

Let's make some of our dreams come true starting this coming new year 2005...

Take care and best wishes always.

Shirley Cheng
