About Me:
LaConnie Taylor-Jones, a native Memphian, is a health educator consultant and holds advanced degrees in community public health and business administration. Married, she is the mother of four and resides with her family in Northern California.

For over twenty-five years, Ms. Taylor-Jones has been an avid romance reader. In the summer of 2003 a challenge from her husband made her seize the opportunity to blend her enthusiasm for teaching health, social responsibility and social justice with her love for reading the genre. Her experience as a health educator sparked a multitude of storylines and her romance, which she defines as the spirit of adventure, played a pivotal part in her road to publication. In a little over four years, she’s authored three full-length novels.

Ms. Taylor-Jones is an active member of the Contra Costa Alumnae chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., the African American Community Health Advisory Committee, Black Women Organized for Political Action, and the San Francisco Area and Black Diamond chapters of Romance Writers of America.

RESPONSE TO SUNDAY'S CHALLENGE QUESTION for TPL MEN

Hi Everyone:

The men at TPL wrapped up the weekend in grand style!! They represented well and my thanks to everyone who particpated in the 'A Love for All Times' Virtual Book Tour.

Here's the question: Does a woman’s past really matter if you know, without a doubt, she is THE ONE for you? Do you believe it is possible for YOU to love a woman for all times?


Take a moment to read the answers to the question from a man's point-of-view!!

RESPONSE TO SATURDAY'S CHALLENGE QUESTION FOR TPL MEN

Hi Everyone:

Well, TPL men did it, again!!

Here's the question:
Since Victoria was able to change AJ’s strong opinion about the dual role a woman can have in the home, is the woman the one who has the power/influence in a relationship? Yes? No? Tell us why?

Take a moment to review what the men had to say.

RESPONSE TO FRIDAY’S CHALLENGE QUESTION FOR TPL MEN

Hi Everyone:

First, let me thank all the TPL men who dared to be played and answered Friday night’s challenge question: Just how long should a man pursue a reluctant woman? And how long would YOU pursue a woman that is avoiding you; yet you know she is the one for you?

The participation was great and the men provided some very thought provoking insight. Thought you’d like to see the responses, so here goes!

p.s. I note that we are both in Nor Cal - I'm in Santa Clara-
and that we were both Greeks. I recently set up a Group for
my fraternity (Pi Kappa Alpha) and it is starting to take
off. We are going to use the group to help communicate
and organize an upcoming 60th anniversary for the chapter.
Wil has been so very supportive- see the welcome banner on
the top page of TPL now. The brothers & sisters of PKA have
the best ride in town- a 1923 American LaFrance Fire Truck!

NPR's All Thing's Considered

Obama To Announce Afghan Strategy New Week

President Obama is expected to outline his strategy in Afghanistan in a televised appearance next Tuesday. The announcement is expected to be followed soon by testimony on Capitol Hill by senior Obama administration officials.

Golden State Highways Are A California Nightmare

California roads once were the envy of the world. But like a lot of things in the Golden State these days, they’re not what they used to be. Federal Highway Administration data show that of the 20 major urban areas with the worst roadway conditions, eight are in California, with 64 percent in "poor condition."

Indian PM Visits Amid Worries Over U.S.-China Ties

Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh will be the guest Tuesday at President Obama's first White House state dinner. Arvind Sumbramanian, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, says Singh's visit comes amid fears in India that its relationship with the U.S. is playing second fiddle to U.S. ties with China.

Letters: Mammograms, Health Care, Armstrong

Listeners respond to the interview on new recommendations on mammograms, the story on the Senate version of the health care bill and the remembrance of civil rights leader James Armstrong. Melissa Block and Michele Norris read from listeners' e-mails.

Jimmie Johnson On Nascar Win

Jimmie Johnson captured his fourth straight NASCAR Sprint Cup championship with a fifth-place finish in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Johnson needed only to finish 25th or better to claim the driving title. Johnson says his strategy was to stay out of trouble and be smart.

New Charges In Somali Terror Case

NPR has learned a federal grand jury in Minneapolis unsealed a roster of indictments Monday charging a handful of men with recruiting young Somali-Americans to fight for a terrorist organization in Somalia. Law enforcement officials revealed details of a more than yearlong investigation into the disappearance of some two dozen young Somalis from the Twin Cities area.

For Firms That Cut Wages, Keeping Workers A Worry

The economic downturn forced many companies to seek extra ways to shrink costs: Some imposed furloughs or fewer work hours; others tried a straight wage reduction. Many of those companies are now concerned, however, about hanging on to their employees.

Catholic Leaders Fight Social Change

Catholic bishops and other church institutions are renewing an aggressive stance against the advance of social polices they see as contrary to their beliefs. The U.S. Catholic bishops pushed for the passage of an amendment to the House health care reform bill limiting the use of taxpayer funds for abortions.

News Corp., Microsoft Weigh Tie-Up

News Corp. and Microsoft are working on a deal that might take News Corp. content off of Google and put it exclusively on Bing, Microsoft's search engine. That means that if you do a Google search, content from a News Corp. outlet, such as The Wall Street Journal or Fox News, would not show up. You would have to use Bing to find it.

Composer Of All Things Considered Theme Remembered

The pianist and composer Don Voegeli passed away this weekend. He was 89. Voegeli wrote classical, jazz and experimental music, and is best known to public radio listeners as the man who composed the theme song for All Things Considered.
