Well, I’m back home… yawn… The conference was a success by my calculations. I had a nice lunch with my agent on Wednesday. Then that evening at the booksigning, I met Jennifer Y.! I love putting names with faces.
Thursday morning Dianne, LuAnn, Karen and I gave our workshop on Group Loops, Blogs, [...]

Cliffhangers

I went and saw Pirates of the Caribbean 2 yesterday with my oldest daughter. Well, the youngest went, too. Although she only woke up to eat and she snoozed happily through Johnny Depp. I planned it that way, too. I love it when my plans work out.
However, I hate cliffhangers. And Pirates ended in a [...]

I’m off to Atlanta early Tuesday so Lucy Monroe graciously said she would post my blog. Except I can’t think of anything to say—I know, if you’ve ever met me you wouldn’t believe I couldn’t find a thing to talk about.
I blogged a couple of days ago on my blog about my sister-in-law. [...]
Ho, ho, ho…

Color me excited! I’m leaving first thing Tuesday morning for the national Romance Writers of America conference in Atlanta. I’ll have a chance to meet and chat with at least three editors that I am working with or have worked with. My agent will be there. I’ll be attending workshops and helping present one. I’ll [...]

We’re back from vacation and I had a very relaxing week at the beach in Punta Cana. I absolutely love the Caribbean and could go every week. LOL. People in the Dominican Republic are very friendly and the landscape is an amazing mix of mountains, sugarcane fields, and shoreline beaches.
When I’m there, I spend a [...]

Everyone reads something different. Some people love vampires, some wouldn’t pick up a vamp book if it was the last book on earth. Some like to read humorous stores, others think the humor distracts from the plot and romance. Then there’s the erotica stories that are really hot…bad pun…right now but not for everyone just [...]
That first moment of attraction…

I’m starting a new book and new books are a lot like new relationships. They’re so yummy. I am in love…or infatuated on my way to love and every minute spent exploring this new entity is delicious. The snags are inevitable and like any new relationship, there will be misunderstandings, moments of panic and sheer [...]

I watched Ghostbusters last night. I haven’t seen that movie in ages and I forgot how funny it was…
I remember how cool the special effects in the movie seemed when it first came out. Now they look sooooooo hmmm.. cheesy? The wonders of digital effects?
Anyway, back to the topic at hand. I love a well [...]
Love/Hate

You know one thing that I really… really…really hate?
Going to the dentist. Now it’s nothing personal against the dentist or the techs…just going there, having my teeth cleaned…I hate it.
I know there are plenty of others out there who feel the same way. There might be the odd creature that doesn’t mind [...]
