Nearing "The End!"
Well, I'm nearing "The End" on my current WIP, anyway. In just a few days, I'll finish my current work in progress–my fallen angel story. I love nearing the end of a book I'm writing. The pages come faster and the thrill of the finish has me wanting to write constantly–I want that story done!
After I finish a book, I like to put it aside for a few days before I start editing and polishing up the story. During that break, I try to distance myself from the story. This is usually my reading...

New Cover: The Naughty List
I wanted to share the cover of my holiday anthology with you…
THE NAUGHTY LIST will be available on September 28, 2010. I was very excited to be included in this anthology with Donna Kauffman and Susan Fox. And I love our cover. So makes me want to go build a snowman.
My novella in this anthology is a straight contemporary story–by that, I mean no vampires, no demons and not even any serial killers! Just a fun holiday tale.
Soon I'll be able to post the blurbs so you can get a feel for the...

Over at Magical Musings, Edie is talking about getting story ideas from music and movies. I often get inspired by songs so I thought this was a great topic.
