A year ago today, I was at my in-laws’ home. We’d just finished dinner and were heading to the living room to watch something on television when my cell phone rang. I thought, Hmm, who could be calling me; everyone is here. Well obviously everyone wasn’t because it was my brother and as soon as …

Please bear with me as I update my site to include my current WIPs and those books that are finished, searching for a home. Thanks!
I bought a Wii, and for the record, I actually bought it so I could have Wii Fit, so technically, it’s my Wii. I do, of course, let The Boy play it and he loves it. He plays it almost every day, except for the times that he is “grounded” from it. And this morning, …
Okay, so there isn’t actually film. I’m sitting in the lobby of the Dolphin hotel on the Disney World Property. One thing you can say about Disney. They’re subtle. This has to be one of the most OVER THE TOP lobbies I’ve ever been in. Okay, so I’m not a huge world traveler and I …

Me: I’m thinking about making my hero a veterinarian. Beloved: You know, veterinary school is very hard to get into. Me: That’s one of the joys of being a writer. I can just say it’s so and it’s so. No tests, no grades, no hassle!
When the Girl was little, she made up the names for her grandparents – Rugga and Bumpa. I guess a lot of kids do that. I have a friend who called her mother “Bimma.” When we were roommates and my mother called, she told me my Bimma called. I told her I don’t have a …
I finished Sword & Illusion! This was the final editing. Beloved is now going to read it for what I’m calling “polishing.” I do NOT intend to do any more rewriting or scene adding or anything like this. I’m going to RWA’s National Conference in July in Orlando, and I fully intend to do my …
