With BREAKING ALL THE RULES coming out in a few short weeks, I should probably be giving you a teaser from it. But when I saw this week’s My Sexy Saturday theme was “My Sexy Addiction,” I couldn’t resist. I simply had to pick a scene starring Mike James. You see, Mike is probably MY […]
Yes, I went there. Again. If you forgave me the first time, you can do it again, right? It’s time for another My Sexy Saturday blog hop. For those of you playing along for the first time, here are the rules: Post 7 paragraphs or 7 sentences or 7 words. The choice is yours. It […]
No doubt about it, writing is hard. First off, it’s not easy to make the time to sit down in front of the computer. Life — in the form of work commitments and family time — so often gets in the way. Yet we do it week in and week out. Why? Because we love […]
I’m afflicted — cursed, if you will — with being that most heinous of attributes: Nice. Too nice. Some people — normal people — might think nice is a good thing. And that is, indeed, the case when you’re dealing with fellow human beings. A little kindness can go a long, long way. But when […]
Thanks to one of my NARWA sisters, I found another contest to enter … a chance to win a pitch with a Harlequin American editor. Since I’ve long envisioned “Operation Snag Mike Brad” as an American Romance, I decided to go for it. I can’t say I always envisioned it in that line. When I […]
Sadly, not much writing has happened since Wednesday (and that writing didn’t count toward my Word Count Countdown, because it wasn’t actually writing on any of my WIPs). I’m at a certain point: Finished MS but no query or synopsis — and since our NARWA meeting next Saturday is on the dreaded synopsis, I’m kind […]
In an effort to get over the disappointment of not finaling in the Golden Heart, I’ve been a busy, busy writer. 😀 No giving up for me, no sir. I spent the weekend working on a synopsis for “Blind Date Bride” and reworking the ending on my losing GH entry. (I’m getting rid of their […]
What to do, what to do? I’m at a bit of a loss again. After writing more than 1,000 words on Meg and Matt’s story yesterday, I’ve hit a block. If I take a page of advice from the “write quickly and often” book, I’ll sit down and make myself write something — anything. But […]
Based on the contest feedback I got on “Operation Snag Mike Brad” today, there’s no way in hell it’s going to final in the Golden Heart. Guess that means I don’t have to worry about coming up with $425 to pay for Nationals, eh? I got scores back from a contest I entered right before […]
E-mail was not my friend this morning. Remember the agent who requested more of my MS a couple of weeks ago? Rejected. After careful consideration, they decided it wasn’t right for their agency. Sounds like a pretty standard rejection, I suppose. However, there was also an encouraging note. A very cute concept but this didn’t […]
