Down To The Wire

Hey Guys,

How are you?

I am excited. I won my first match in the US OPEN & in less than 24hrs my book, "ON THE LINE" will be in stores on online for you to purchase. I would like to take this time to thank you for supporting me, reading my blogs, writing to me on myspace, twitter & facebook.

I hope that you enjoy the book. I share some very personal experiences & open doors on subjects that I've never discussed. You will see pictures of not only me but my family. "ON THE LINE" is personal & a reflection of me, Serena not me as Serena Williams. I will keep you all posted on where to find me on tour for the book.

To all of my twitter fans, thank you so much. I am almost at my goal of a million followers & counting...

Stay tuned, there is so much more to come.


Xxxx,
S

P.S. Jackie & Laura would like to say "HELLO" as well.... LOL...

Hi Serena, My dream is to watch you play live on a tennis court. However, if I could have your autograph on this book, that would be amazing. I have not purchased the book yet, but I will. I'm also a Florida resident--Broward County. Hey! Baby! you have already reached your goal. Each of your fans is a million! Good luck to you and Venus at the USO. I Love U both. Please Go For Your Shots! That's when you are at your best--The True #1! Love always... 4EVER

Serena, well done looking forward to reading the new book. You and your sister make a proud people out of us for all you have accomplished despite the many obstacles that besieged you along the way. Best of luck at the US Open!

Comment by : Joan Hunter Tuesday, September 1, 2009

So sorry I am a day behind in wishing you luck I keep forgetting the time difference between the USA and we here on the other side of the Atlantic, lol!! But well done for getting the first match so convincingly out of the way and I know you are just hungry to retain this title, it was so funny to hear you say your last grand slam seems like such a long time a go! A true competitor!!. So do as you do, take every match as they come and start with intensity and once you have them on the run keep focused and see out the game, save energy. I am watching your every stroke. Can't wait to read your book, Thank You again for sharing so much of yourself with us, we sure know you were 'Born To Play' and boy are you living out that desire, and long may it continue! Go Serena xLove all the way from Englandx

Comment by : Georgi Poloa Tuesday, September 1, 2009

Aloha Serena, What's up with your sis? Wow, what a surprisingly long match! I knew she'd find a way to pull off a win! Where were you? I expected to see you in the Williams section cheering her on. She's always there watching you after her matches. Just wondering. I only watch tennis when you're both playing.

Comment by : Ted L Tuesday, September 1, 2009

Hi Serena, Congratulations on your win yesterday & on your book that comes out today. I would like to say thanks for sharing your story & experiences with everyone. Your story is an amazing one & one that inspires many of people.

Comment by: EMMA OKWUMEH, Tue. Sept. 1, 2009: Hi baby girl, you were very wonderful on court as usual, congratulations. Pls keep it up, we will like to see you in another grand slam victory. My advice is to remain focused, avoid any distraction, believe you can do it again, hand over everything to God in prayer and believe in Him that He can do it again for you. May God's grace lead you through in Jesus name- Amen.

Hey 'Rena! I love your book! I pre-ordered it like 2 weeks in advance from Amazon.com and my heart fluttered like crazy when it finally arrived in the mail! I'm so busy with work, I haven't had time to go out to a bookstore, so I bought your new book along with a bunch of other books & DVD's about you and your sister Venus. I am very proud of you for your excellent First Round match! Keep it up! This title is yours! Grand Slam #12, here she comes! Kick butt, keep it up and know that you are the BADDEST chick in the Tennis game 'Rena! Ya better believe it! :) Love ya!!

Comment by : kiaha long Tuesday, September 1, 2009

Hey Serena I purchased your book! I love the entry when you first entered the tournament at the age 8 with venus in an tournament for 10 years old. I think that is awesome that you made it to the final to play venus. I like how you both swapped trophy's and you and keep that trophy by your side. my favorite part of the book is the photographs on page 149-153 especially when you first won your first grand slam at the us open in 1999. Keep up the good work serena! hope you do good at this years grand slam the us open bring it home again!.
