What a DAY! 12/02/2011
 
It started when I got up.  It was pitch day at Savvy Authors and I planned to do just that.  Problem was, I wasn't sure I could before I left for work at 7:30.  Luckily for me, they are set to Eastern Standard Time.  Yippee!  I sent it in...all 25 words.  Now I have to wait a week to find out if she is interested.

On the subject of waiting...it's been 4 weeks since I subbed my urban fantasy to the latest publisher.  I will assume not hearing anything yet is good.  Yeah, that's the ticket!

It was a long and BUSY day at work.  I swear from 3:00 to 5:00p.m. they must have been dropping people in from the sky!  So, of course I was late getting home and scrambled when I got here to get the animals fed.  DUH, right?

Well, I had my OSM about 15 minutes ago.  I'm being interviewed today by D.A. Kentner on his blog.  And, the day was pretty much over.  Eek!  So I scurried on over to see if I had missed anything.

Please take a moment and drop by.

RELEASE DAY! 08/30/2011
 
Is it just me or does that sound naughty? 

LOL  In this case it is...a little bit.  Mr. Fix-it, my contemporary romantic suspense released today from SirenBookstrand, Inc.  My pre-orders were double what they were for my debut novel, Dare to Dream, so I am stoked!

Hellofa Week! 08/06/2011
 
It's been a hell of a week for yours truly.  Where to begin?

At the urging of a friend, I signed up for one of those on-line dating thingamabops.  It's a new age, people are busy, who has time?  I understand the concept.  But remember, I've been out of the dating loop for over 3 decades.  (God, that makes me sound so old!)  So what do I get right out of the box?  Two, count them, 2 internet predators.  It was quite the learning experience.  Perhaps more so for them, than me.   LOL

Boys, we southern girls didn't just fall off the cabbage truck.  We will find you and it won't be pretty.

So you pick yourself up, dust your bruised ego and climb back on that bronc.  Time will tell if I'll find Mr. Right or not.  I'm in no rush.  Much.
I spoke to a very nice man last evening...

Two job interviews this week as well.  Waiting on the outcomes.  They are still interviewing so I will have a lot of competition.I should know something by the end of next week.

Dare to Dream is out on Amazon!  Yeah, it surprised me too.  I have my release date pretty firm for
Mr. Fix-it--August 30th.  I still need my cover art and line edits, but all systems are go otherwise.  Check My Stories page for blurbs and buy links.

The folks in New York still have parts or all of my urban fantasy series.
~sigh~ New York has their own time table which I am pretty sure will result in my posthumous acclaim. When I said I wanted to be on the New York Times Best Seller's list in five years I didn't mean five after I died.

My fault, I wanted to be a writer.

Speaking of dead.  It's been 105 or more for a week.  Zero rain.  I'm feeding my winter hay.  This does not bode well.

Hugs!

I just found out my book, Dare to Dream, is listed in Goodreads, Best Time Travel Fiction !  Yes, there are about a zillion others, but that doesn't lessen the honor.  Here's the link if you'd care to cast a ballot.

It's up to number 46!

I have a tentative release date for Mr. Fix-it, September 6th.
Siren Publishing, Inc.
I received my copy edits yesterday and will send them off this weekend, so that date may move up.  I'll keep you posted.

Remember, as soon as I get my ARCs, I'll be having a contest  and the lucky winner will receive a copy of both, Dare to Dream and Mr. Fix-it!
