Next Author Chat: Jeconais ~ Tomorrow! on Saturday, October 8 at 4:00 PM EST

[rdprice29]

Actually, I messed up the Time Zone changes.  Jeconais' chat is at
9:00 pm London time, which makes it:

4:00 PM EST, 3:00 PM CST, 2:00 PM MST AND 1:00 PM PST in the States. 
I think the international times are still ok.

Sorry about that!

 and Jeconais is exactly that – a great Author.
