August 2001:

So many new things! I've created two new sites at WZ.com, which you'll see as "The Busy Person's Guide to.." to your left. I've also contracted with LTDBooks to publish Storm and Choices as ebooks and trade paperbacks, which is very exciting. I've also got a brand new grandson, and is he beautiful! Proud grannie talk? You bet!

March, 2000:

Do you like the new look? This should be easier to navigate through my pages as you'll see the links consistently in the frame to the left. Let me know what you think.

October 1999:

I've added some wonderful resources for writers! Some of the sites at About.com deal with writers and writing, and I've added links to those sites on a Resources for Writers page. Click on the page from the links to the left.

July 1999:

I've added links to the new Delphi Forum I maintain as part of my Santa Cruz / Monterey Bay site where I have a Writer's Room. I hope you'll stop by, see what's happening and post your contribution to our discussions about writing.

March, 1999:

Like the cobbler's children who had to wait for their shoes, my own pages have had to wait on a number of other commitments before being updated! However, I've made a number of changes which I hope you'll take the time to investigate.

I've added a navigation bar as you can see. It adds a cleaner look to the overall design and when you browse through the offerings, you'll see a few extra pages.

One of these pages is South America for Visitors, the new site I am producing for About.com. Please take a few minutes for a virtual tour of that wonderfully diverse and intriguing continent!

Another page is a tribute to Lilly Christian, the Cat Lady of Boulder Creek. Read it, and you'll see why she was so special and why people still remember her.

Don't forget -- if you want a peek at my home territory, click on Santa Cruz / Monterey Bay and you'll see why I love my home.

The newest page is the Excerpts Page, where you'll find links to excerpts from most of my work. Read 'em and tell me what you think!

October 1998:

I've changed the name "Guest Book" in the links throughout these pages to "Communications Page" so it won't confuse anyone. Also, a small design note: I know I've violated umpty rules of good design by using so many different backgrounds. However, just as I have many moods and facets to my personality, so my pages reflect the many sides of me.

September 1998:

In addition to updating my home page with publishing news I've redone my book page and added an excerpt for Choices. Don't miss!

July 1998:

I've added some great links to Special Links which you won't want to miss. And I've revamped the Guest Book. It's now the Communications Page with two free! communications tools. Make sure you put them to good use.

January 1998:

Thank you for joining me -- do you like the new look? I recently aquired my own domain (www.bonniehamre.com) and moved everything over to it. Please bookmark this new site so we can visit again.

I'm thrilled to be the About.com guide to Santa Cruz, CA. I'd like to share this wonderfully scenic, diverse and culturally-rich county with you. Each week, I write an article featuring life in Santa Cruz. Sometimes humorous, sometimes historical, sometimes reflective or serious, but always topical, the feature is a favorite piece to write.
