About the Author
Rosalyn McMillan is a dedicated wife and devoted mother of four, and grandmother of five, who is currently surviving both rheumatoid arthritis and Alopecia Totalis, a disease that causes bodily hair loss. Rosalyn worked as a sewing machine operator at Ford Motor Company for nineteen years before medically retiring. She used the challenges in her own life as inspiration to become a successful novelist. Rosalyn loves to research newsworthy stories and use them as sub-plots in her real-life novels.
Her first novel, Knowing, debuted as a highly successful initial achievement. Knowing sold over 70,000 hardcover copies and over 400,000 paperbacks. It was a national best-seller and charted admirably on many book lists.
Rosalyn then followed the success of her first book with One Better, then Blue Collar Blues, The Flip Side of Sin. This Side of Eternity was Rosalyn’s fifth novel; the plot centered around the sanitation workers strike in 1968.
Rosalyn remains a loyal student of her profession by reading two to three hundred books a year. She feels that it’s imperative for an author to keep abreast of the New York Times best-sellers as well as fresh voices of fiction.
Currently, she lives in Memphis, TN, with her husband, John, where they relax fishing in their stocked pond.
Some of her favorite authors are John Sanford, Alice Walker, Maya Angelou, John Grisham, Toni Morrison, Eric Jerome Dickey, Kimberla Lawson-Roby and Terry McMillan.

About the Book
The relationship between Charity Evans and her sister Lynzee Lavender brings new meaning to the term “sibling rivalry.” Lynzee writes science fiction, and her New York Times bestseller status gets her into A-list parties and fattens her bank account. She can’t stand the fact that Charity is a published author too, though she swears that Charity is nowhere near as good.
It seems like the publishing industry might agree, because Charity is having trouble getting her contract renewed. Is it possible that Lynzee has had her blacklisted? With her savings dwindling, Charity struggles to pay her bills, and the pressure is putting incredible strain on her marriage. Things only get worse when Lynzee drops a bomb: she reveals that Charity’s husband is the father of a child she gave up for adoption years ago.
Charity’s life goes into a tailspin as she struggles with the shocking news. Should she tell her husband about the child he never knew he had, or would that be more drama than their already fragile marriage can handle? Charity chooses to fight back against her sister in a very creative way, but the fallout from all this drama might leave plenty of casualties in its wake.
Bestselling author Rosalyn McMillan narrates the tale of two literary sisters that will make readers ask: How much of this is based on actual events?

I wanted to say thank you to LaShaunda and SORMAG for hosting Rosalyn McMillan today.
Rosalyn, you will love being featured on SORMAG today. "We Ain't the Brontes" is your first book in ten years? Tell us what you have been up to in the past decade. A lot of readers miss you!
LaShaunda,thank you for hosting me today. I appreciate your support.
For the past ten years I've been busy writing. I've got nine books that are completed and ready to be published. Some of them I'm going to publish as e-books. Also, to make a living I've been selling cars, bridal dresses, furniture, and Jenny Craig.
Rosalyn,
Thank you so much for stopping by SORMAG today. I was curious to know if you were suffering from writer’s block or just given up on the writing. Glad to know the muse didn’t leave you.
Social media has become the norm for writers now, so what’s your favorite social media and why?
LaShaunda, no I never suffered from Writer's block. I've got dozens of stories I would like to tell.
My favorite social media is Facebook. I'm on it several times a day. It's easy to use and you get instant feedback. I don't like twitter. I can't decipher all of the language tags. However, I do try to use Twitter because I know how much it helps with networking.
