Working on the CBS Comedy Mom . #giveaway totally unrelated book.

Backstage at a TV show and a totally unrelated book giveaway. eBook of The Once and Future King (The book that spawned the musical Camelot and the Disney movie, the Sword and the Stone.) It was on sale last week and I bought a gift copy.
Last week I was on Mom. My few seconds of glory are on a video at the end of this post.
Mom, a CBS hit comedy, is a multi-camera show normally filmed in front of a live audience at Warner Brothers Studio, stage 20. Multi-camera shows hire you for the week. (Oh Joy) even though you have one line.
I thought you might enjoy some backstage pictures. I love the acting and the writing on this show. It was a privilege to watch the work. My dream has always been to be a regular on a sitcom. I want to be second banana with a few really funny lines. They have some fabulous second bananas on this show.
Day One: I arrive for the read-through of the script. I have my own assigned parking spot! A full breakfast is available pre-read-through, including an omelet station.
After rehearsal, I go for a costume fitting.
I wasn't required for Days three and four.
Day five: I arrived at 1:00 PM for makeup. Kentaro Yano, who did the tattoos for Black Panther gave me a series of wonderful tattoos. Allison Janney came in to get the spray tattoo for her back. So funny. (No pictures because that's part of the silence agreement which is part of my contract.)
We broke for Lunch
After lunch, Kentaro finished up the tattoos. And they shoot my scene.
Here is the final result. My Ten Seconds of Glory on Mom

You can't see all the wonderful work Kentaro did. That makes me sad. The work itself. Getting to be part of this cast made me very happy. What made you happy last week?

Snowfall On Lighthouse Land comes out today! And I have a paperback to give away. Small Town Christmas read, anyone? Second Chance Romance? The Gorgeous Olympic Penninsula? And one great ghost? If you love any of these things, this is a book for you.
Blurb: Growing up on the wrong side of the tracks, Jolene Harper is forever indebted to the mother who encouraged her to fly—all the way to sunny LA and a world away from Honeymoon Harbor. Although Jolene vowed never to look back, returning home isn’t even a question when her mom faces a cancer scare. Which means running into Aiden Mannion all over town, the first boy she ever loved—and lost—and whom she can barely look in the eye.
When Little Bird Publicity asked me if I would like to feature JoAnn Ross on my blog, I had never heard of her. So I looked her up. Her website immediately endeared her to me.

Blurb: Growing up on the wrong side of the tracks, Jolene Harper is forever indebted to the mother who encouraged her to fly—all the way to sunny LA and a world away from Honeymoon Harbor. Although Jolene vowed never to look back, returning home isn’t even a question when her mom faces a cancer scare. Which means running into Aiden Mannion all over town, the first boy she ever loved—and lost—and whom she can barely look in the eye.
Aiden’s black-sheep reputation may have diminished when he joined the marines, but everything he’s endured since has left him haunted. Back in Honeymoon Harbor to heal, he’s talked into the interim role of police chief, and the irony isn’t lost on the locals, least of all Aiden. But seeing Jolene after all these years is the unexpected breath of fresh air he’s been missing. He’s never forgotten her through all his tours, but he’s not sure anymore that he’s the man she deserves.
Despite the secret they left between them all those years ago, snow is starting to fall on their picturesque little town, making anything seem possible…maybe even a second chance at first love

Meet JoAnn Ross.
When New York Times bestselling author JoAnn Ross was seven-years-old, she had no doubt whatsoever that she’d grow up to play center field for the New York Yankees. Writing would be her backup occupation, something she planned to do after retiring from baseball. Those were, in her mind, her only options. While waiting for the Yankees management to call, she wrote her first novella — a tragic romance about two star-crossed mallard ducks — for a second grade writing assignment.
The paper earned a gold star. And JoAnn kept writing.
She’s now written over one hundred novels and has been published in twenty-six countries. Two of her titles have been excerpted in Cosmopolitan magazine and her books have also been published by the Doubleday, Rhapsody, Literary Guild, and Mystery Guild book clubs. A member of the Romance Writers of America’s Honor Roll of best-selling authors, she’s won several awards, including RT Reviews’ Career Achievement Awards in both category romance and contemporary single title. In addition, she received RWA’s national service award and was named RWA Pro-Mentor of the Year.
Although the Yankees have yet to call her to New York to platoon center field, JoAnn figures making one out of two life goals isn’t bad.
Currently writing her Honeymoon Harbor series for HQN, JoAnn lives with her high school sweetheart, whom she married twice, in her beloved Pacific Northwest.
Honeymoon Harbor, set in a small harbor town on Washington State's Olympic Peninsula, is about love, life, and family.
I'm going to link you to the series through JoAnn's Website because it's available in so many formats.
- Prequel Novella: Home to Honeymoon Harbor
- Book 1: Herons Landing
- A Novella, 3rd story : Once Upon A Wedding
- Book 2: Snowfall on Lighthouse Lane
