Yahoo Group

I’ve started a yahoo group if anyone is interested in joining. It’s a no promotion group, very laid back, check anal tendencies at the door *g* (because anal people make me crazy)

Discussion is open to anything and everything. No rules. Just the way I like it :)

Here’s the link! If you join, do please post an intro :)

Crispy Feet

Spent Sunday at the beach swimming and fishing. :fishing: The weather was simply gorgeous. The water temp was perfect. Not too hot, not too cold. We caught a bunch of sharks, so that was fun, and I even remembered to wear sunblock. For the most part.

THe tops of my feet are SO burnt. :help:

Tonight we’re going to grill steaks and celebrate the release of Colters’ Woman, which as you probably guessed releases tonight! :cheer:

In the meantime, I’ve got a really smart assed hero to see about.

Conquering Germ Warfare

Yeah, that’s what it’s been at my house. All out germ warfare. The kids all got well. Mama? She comes down with a double whammy of strep throat and mono. :dunno: Yeah, I’m having a lot of fun. But I’m on day three of antibiotics, and can only now manage to swallow without excrutiating agony.

I only have a few days left until Colters’ Woman releases. :whoo: I’m so excited. I’ve already gotten some fantastic reviews, and I’ve been a bit flabbergasted by the excellent feedback I’ve received on the story. I can’t wait for release day, which is officially Tuesday, but the releases always go up on the Samhain page Monday night. :lol2:

And I just contracted another story that my editor is excited about, so uhm, I have PLENTY to do in the coming months. Lots and lots to do… and uhm there’s the small matter of a proposal I have to get to my Berkley editor in two months. :help:

So yeah, working. That’s what I’ll be doing if anyone is looking for me. :writersblock:

Understood

Yes, it’s been hanging out in the sidebar for awhile, but I wanted to post a larger size. I heart Anne Cain. She does wonderful covers. :worthy:

Understood releases December 19th.

Shhhhhh

I’m whispering, but I think maybe the sickies have finally left. :sweating:

Middle child has been home the last two days running a huge fever and puking. :puke: Yeah, lovely, I know. But all seems better today, and I no longer have the headache that had me wanting to cleave my forehead in two.

Which is good because we have a dove hunting trip planned for tomorrow. :shoot: Should be a blast. Friend of ours has the entire hotel rented out for our group. We’ll go down tomorrow, hunt until dark and the goof off the rest of the evening.

The Sickies are here

Few random snippets. I’m giving away a signed copy of Seducing Simon over at Writeminded today to celebrate the print release. I’m also over at Romance Junkies for the next two days for staff pick days. I’ll be giving away lots of cool prizes and chatting with the readers. It should be fun, so hop over if you get the chance.

My daughter was sick over the weekend. The amazing thing about when kids get sick, is that they can come down with one set of symptoms, get well, then they make YOU sick with a whole different set of symptoms. Daughter had fever and upset stomach. I get headache and sore throat. :huh:

So since I’ll be busy with Romance Junkies staff pick days, I’m gonna go shop for an ebook or two and curl up in my comfy chair to chat and read a good book. I’m taking a sick day. :passedout:

Rainy Monday

Today was supposed to be another drive to Houston, but my baby is home with a fever and it was raining to beat hell this morning when I got up, so I rescheduled Houston for another day.

We’re at home enjoying sweet baby snuggles, watching it rain and watching Disney. Really, it doesn’t get much better than that :hug:
