Hi, Serena: Wow, your schedule is full. Have fun promoting your great book. I suggest everyone buy it just to have those adorable photos of you when you were so little. I loved your beads. And now, as a grown woman, you make us all proud to call ourselves women. Grace, talent, beauty, and intelligence abound in you. Have a super book tour, and remember we have your back - Always! Luv ya'!

Will you post videos during the U.S. Open?

Comment by : Gertrude Bradley Tuesday, August 25, 2009

Serena, will you have a way for your fans to purchase your book from your website?. It would cause the lions share of the revenue to go to you, and make your fans happy! I plan to get one no matter where I have to go to get it. I hope they will be on Amazon because I have an account with them. I am looking forward to the US Open, it is my second favorite slam and you are my favorite player...it's all good!

Comment by : Dr. James Lee jr. Tuesday, August 25, 2009

Can't wait for your book to arrive. But right now I'll have to settle for you kicking butt on the New York tennis courts. Have you got a new outfit? Maybe you can autograph and hand out a few copies after you win the title.

Comment by : Norma Brewer Wednesday, August 26, 2009

Hey Serena, I'm looking forward to watching you and Vee do well at the US Open. No matter what stay positive even when your not playing your best. I've watched you over the years and learned that whenever you get down on yourself, you don't play as well. My tennis partner and I have this moto... remember who you are.. Serena F..ing Williams the Queens of the courts. Nobody can beat you when you put your mind to it! SFW!!!!!! Same for Venus. Thank you for being you! Xxxx, Norma

Comment by : jonny ox Thursday, August 27, 2009

Your talents seem endless, Ms Williams. I really don't know of anyone more impressive. I'm hope the Dolphins know how lucky they are to have you. Maybe you should lobby Stephen for a roster spot. I'd love to see you suit up on Sundays.

Comment by : colin nixon Sunday, August 30, 2009

I wish you well at the US Open. It is yours to win because when you are on your game no one can best you. I e-mailed you once before. I wrote thst you must be focused, must never allow anyone or anything to take you off your game. Easy for me to say, but you are Serena and i know there is only one person who can beat you.That is you. Forgive me for being blunt. Colin

Comment by : Dimples Philips Sunday, August 30, 2009

Hey Serena, I can hardly wait to get that book. I've read all the excerpts, and everything you offered online about the book. I look forward to reading it. I can tel lit's going to be a funny, yet interesting book. I can relate to some of the things in your life. You and your sister Vee, reminds me so much of me and my sister V, the only diffrence is that we're not "famous"LOL, but we're sisters and best friends!! Thanks again for sharing. GOOD LUCK AND PLEASE LET US KNOW HOW THE BOOK IS DOING!!!

Comment by : Shante Phillips Sunday, August 30, 2009

Serena My name is Shante Phillips. I thank God for you accomplishments and all you are doing to help ensure the achievement of the lives of others. The little black dress look great on you. I have always been interested in the game and am starting to play to help with my weight loss. I recently joined Talent Link Talent Agency here in Charlotte to continue pursuing my dreams. I am a singer and also love to act. I need some improvemnts physically. When I see myself on camera I don't like the gap between my teeth. Many say that it is cute. but when viewing myself I get discouraged. I want braces. I was recently wrongfully terminated March 6th and life has been tough. I am in process of a lawsuit, a burden within itself but I need to go through with it. I have lost a lot since the termination. I care for my 62 year old father and am seeking a better life for him and myself. I have been out of church for a little over a month. I felt more depression creeping in. I will go back starting next Sunday. I truly love God and want to continue on with the charge he has given me. So many times I am misunderstood so I stay away from people especially when my personal problems become overbearing. I don't want to burden others. I also don't want others to know my personal business. People are so judemental. I can't share much with others and not find out that is was leaked out to someon else. Not all the time intentionally but sometimes people just casually mention things you entrusted them with and it makes you feel bad when another person you have not talked with concserning the matter mentions something to you about it. I have read comments from you and how you feel aout yourself. If there is an improvement you can make and want to do so do it! You are beautiful! Love youself and allow no one to take that from you. I will keep you in my prayers Shante Phillips

Comment by : Ernestine Miller Sunday, August 30, 2009

Comment by : Ketie Aristil Sunday, August 30, 2009

Rena, I wanted to congratulate you on your recent success in becoming part ownership of the Miami Dolphins. That is a smart move. I am so proud of you and Vee. I am sure that your parents are proud of you two. As far as your new book, i will buy it. I have always been a great fan of Venus and you and when you two would lose a match, i would be sad. Hey, your sister Vee will win the US Open this year. That is my prediction. My number one man Federer will win his 6th US Open. I will look forward to seing you and Vee play your best Tennis this US Open. Rena, just go out there and have fun and focus as well. Don't forget how blessed you are and that you have a lot of support from your family, friends and faithful fans. Love you, Ketie :-)

Comment by : Ibirinde Folu Francis Monday, August 31, 2009

Hi Serena, This is another effort on your part to put your life permanently in our heart. You are appreciated for your modest contribution to making our world a better place than you met it. However, how do we get this book in Nigeria? It should not and must not be limited to America market alone, you are larger than American market, and you are a national of the World, definitely not American alone. It should have been released across major cities of the World the same day. Anyway, thank you for been part of our lives. Your lovely die-hard fan in Nigeria, Regards Ibirinde Folu Francis

Comment by : Ibirinde Folu Francis Monday, August 31, 2009

Serena, just to wish you all the best in the US Open, I trust you will triumph, I know you are on your way to becoming the greatest woman tennis champion of the world. I and million of your fans across the globe are on our kneel praying for you. Just go there and conquer
