Happy Friday! Whew! I didn't think this week would ever end. I'm so looking forward to sleeping in this weekend, especially since I've been up at 5:30am every day for two weeks now. Yuck. However, it was all worth it in the end due to the wonderful people I've met and the fun I had.

As...

Continuing my recounts of the Book 'Em NC event, today I want to talk about the Author Meet-n-Greet from the night before the big event.

Let me first go into my expectations.

This was my first big conference, out of state, and I wondered if I'd have to deal with th...

Good morning, all. How was your Valentine's Day? I hope it was pleasant. The kids and I ended up making homemade lasagna roll ups, salads, and freshly made breadsticks. Everyone enjoyed it and the girls got to help out.

I guess you're all waiting to see who the big winner of yesterday's giveaway was. Between Facebook, Twitter, a...

Happy day before Valentine's Day! Are you planning something special for the loved one in your life? Tim & I had our big night Friday. It was quite nice and fairly low key...just the way I like it.

Today I'm inviting you to join in on a multi-author giveaway. This is a BIG one you won't want to miss. Stop by my good friend, Ro...

Nope! Today's my birthday. Woohoo! Today I turn the big 3-5.

I've received a lot of sweet birthday wishes across social media sites today, and with thousands of friends, fans, and followers it's simply impossible for me to respond to each and every one of them. So thank you, all of you. You're lovely sentiment makes me smile and warms my heart.

I'm spending this morning doing some laundry, watching a horror movie, I'll make FIL's breakfast in a bit, and then later I'm ha...

Sooooo, I've taken on the parenting task of teaching my oldest daughter how to drive. Tim isn't as secure in his ability to remain calm and reassuring when it comes to this task. Therefore, it has fallen to me.

I'm trying. Very hard. Trying to get through this parenting trial with the kind of grace that I've been able...

I survived.

"What did you survive?" you may ask.

Well, I survived the holidays, my oldest daughter's 15th birthday, New Year's, illnesses, and even the teenager getting her learner's permit! Eek!

The holidays were a rush of my teen in my cousin's wedding, my mother's birthday, FIL in the hospital, hosting Chris...

As you read this, I'm on my way out of town for a day trip with Tim and our girls.  We had the family Thanksgiving get-together last Saturday, freeing us up to do what ever we wanted today. With Tim off work and the girls out of school this week, what better time to take a trip?

Today we will spend the day in Pigeon Forge, TN.  I have reservations for a late lunch and show at Dixie Stampede at 1pm.  When Tim & I saw the Christmas show there last year we knew we had...

Hello, friends. I hope everyone is having a pleasant October so far. I'm still getting it on with Killer Intentions (Liz Baker, book 3). Liz is currently leaving the beach and heading back to Adele's estate. Gregory is hot on her heels & Chad is just plain ole HOT!

I have some big plans for Liz and her cohorts during this book and over the next two or three (at least) books to come. Of course I also have the short stories to dish out as soon as

As you may have noticed, the time between my blog postings has stretched. I'm currently in a rush to finish up Killer Intentions (Liz Baker, book 3) in order to get it into editing and production as soon as possible. The book is scheduled for a December release, but will probably be toward the end of December.

In the meantime, I'm enjoying the peace and quiet to work that the kids being back in school has afforded me. Not only that, but Tim has been working ...
