How to Make a Bump Key?
Did you notice in book 2 that Rhea uses a bump key to get into a secured apartment building without a moment's pause? Wondering how easily she could get into your home?

Videos Like This Warm My Heart
Yes. They warm my heart because I love that the characters I see so clearly in my head come to life in other people's minds when they read my stories. Maybe that's a bit narcissistic, but if I don't like this video, who will?
It's always fun to see how people cast the characters in my books, and this vid gives you a look as to what Kayla pictures as she reads. Do you agree with her casting?

"Stalk" Lake Scavenger Hunt Winners Announced :)
It took 18 minutes for the team representing the Springville Museum of Art to clinch the $1,000 donation.
Wow. That's all I can say, other than a BIG thanks to all her participated. I wish you ALL could have won...
For those of you who missed it, here's a look at the two teams that walked away with donations: Springville Museum of Art ($1,000 Grand Prize) and the Utah Refugee Coalition ($100 Barnes & Noble "Spirit Award")
We always like it when the governor drops by. He stopped in to...
Ready to Roll, Teams?
Two hours until the "Stalk" Lake City Scavenger hunt begins!
I'm hoping all teams followed advice and has an online team member. You'll need a team member like that for a few of the clues. And don't forget Twitter! Three out of ten clue locations are revealed plain as day there, if you find the right hashtag to search.
Best of Luck!!!

It Feels a Little Like Christmas...
I'm making my list and checking it twice. I'm also making little packets of bookmarks for team members who are competing in tomorrow's "Stalk" Lake City Scavenger Hunt. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm having fun :)
In 12 hours, it will be over and the winner declared. Totally weird!!
For those of you who are savvy and checking up on me, I will give you a look at the clue cards you are picking up tomorrow. In the spirit of a book release, the clue cards are bookmarks.
And the first team...

Casting Call
So it's no secret that I think Rhea could rock a movie screen. The right story, the right stunts, and oh the fun we could have! So when Kayla emailed me this today, I was excited to see how a reader envisioned Rhea Jensen. These are her four top choices to play Rhea.
Thoughts? Do you agree? :)
And thanks for making the vid, Kayla! Total fun!

I *Heart* Psych
I do. I love the USA Network's "Psych." Not only is it funny week after week, without getting old, but it seems to be the only show on television that can delay an inevitable romance season after season without resorting to cliches.
Seriously, that deserves a round of applause! Add that to the constant 80s references, their fun with pineapples, little insider digs and actors/producers fantastic, fluid chemistry, and I see several good seasons ahead.
I've been contemplating buying Season 1 so I ...

More Costco Nuggets...
It's been so long since I've posted about Costco wisdom bits that I almost don't know where to start... I guess with what sticks out the most (no pun intended... maybe):
Skinny men with little pot bellies should not wear soccer shirts. I LOVE kids that look like little adults. You know what I'm talking about--those kids that, when you look at them, you can imagine EXACTLY what they'll look like in 10 or 20 years, and probably what field of work they'll be in. Tiny little accountants...

I Have Only One Horn to Toot This Week...
In fact, it might get a little annoying. I should reserve the right be annoying this week because I want EVERYONE to know that they can win $1,000 for a cause they are passionate about on August 7, 2010.
Great sponsors have partnered with me to create the Stalk Lake Scavenger Hunt for Non-Profit. Any team can compete for any cause they would like, because in the end, the winning team will say what their cause is, and my phenomenal sponsors will donate to that cause!
It's THAT easy!!!

Proper Motivation
Have you ever seen a picture that did more than thousands of words when it came to getting you off your butt and into action?
When I lived in Maui, I frequently hung out with Emily. Though I arrived to the island as white, pasty and flabby as the worst of tourists, six months on the island changed my body in small, happy ways. Before living in Maui, I could never tan. I just alternated between red and white. Since Maui, my skin now browns a bit. :) Also, daily visits to the beach and nearly da...
