Congratulations to my fellow Laced With Desire authors, Jaci Burton, Joey Hill, and Denise Rossetti. We won the CAPA Award for best anthology in 2010 from the Romance Studio! Whoohoo! What a nice Valentines present! Check out the excerpt for my story, La Petite Mort in Laced With Desire. What’s the name of the company…
One of my 2011 goals is to get the Max Starr series up in print. The first two books, Dead to the Max and Evil to the Max are out there! And this month, Desperate to the Max is available. I’ve reworked the text for some of the technology changes we’ve experienced since I first…
Finally I have all my calendars up! I don’t know why, but there’s a weird sense of excitement about what goes up on the wall. This year I splurged and bought a Norwegian Elkhound calendar for my hubby for Christmas. Yes, I paid full price and bought it two months before Christmas (because I got…
Okay, I heard about Glee when it first came out, and I thought it sounded so…dumb. A glee club? How…high school. But then I started hearing great things about the show. And I was still dubious. But finally, just because I love musicals (I got The Sound of Music on Blu-Ray for Christmas!!!), I thought…
For the first time in about five years, I actually bought a Christmas tree! And even decorated it! And I’m having the whole family over for Christmas Day. Usually we do it at my sister’s house, but I made the executive decision to have it at my house this time instead of making her do…
I had a marvelous Thanksgiving holiday with my mom and a wonderful visit out to my brothers. One of the highlights of the trip was meeting Chelle and Emmitt. Chelle is a great fan of mine (whoohoo, thank you, Chelle, for making my entire year), and I fell in love with her baby Emmitt. That’s…
A little business first! Congratulations to Estella on winning last week’s blog, a copy of Marianne Stillings Sighs Matter! I’ve got your address, Estella and I’ll get the book mailed out to you as soon as I get back from vacation (next week!). And now, I’d like to introduce my special guest Rosemary Gunn. I…
My sister sent me the link to a video the other day. And I just have to say I absolutely loved it. I don’t know why, maybe because I’ve always loved The Sound of Music. Almost as much as Beauty and the Beast! Both of which I’m getting on Blu-ray for Christmas (oops, I’m not…
First of all, thanks to Crystal Kauffman for stopping by last week and giving us that great story! It’s almost Halloween! And my favorite thing is to open the front door to all those little ghosts and goblins! Kids are so adorable. I love their costumes, and they get so excited when you tell them…
I’d like to welcome my very good friend, Crystal Kauffman. She’s a wonderful writer, as you can tell from the fantastic excerpt below! So now I turn it over to her! Hello and thanks for stopping by! It’s day 3 of my world tour promoting my newest release, Saving Lady Ilsa. I’m grateful to Jasmine…
I want you, my loyal blog followers, to be the first to know I’ve got a new contract with Berkley Heat! Whoohoo! My editor wants me to write the next two books in my “DeKnight Trilogy.” I’m so excited, because I love all these characters. Of course, each book in the trilogy follows the story…
Whoohoo, my computer is up and running with its new hard drive! Cross your fingers for me that it lasts! So, this weekend I went down to my mom’s old folks home for a barbecue. They had different jazz bands set up around the compound and lots of good food. I like the New Orleans…
