Wait, there's more!
As I sit here, watching the predicted storm path for Hurricane Sandy, I am finishing a preliminary reworking of my Christian Romance, An Unexpected Woman which has, as you may know, been picked up by The Writer's Coffee Shop Publishing House .
My editorial team sent me fantastic notes and suggestions and I spent this week working on them. Since the novel takes place in Southwest Florida during the spring and summer, it may not surprise you to hear that tropical storms do play a role in the story.
Which is why I was smiling a little as I finished my work today. Hurricanes seem to follow me around, you know? And this one has my name on it. Sort of.
I hope that if you are in my quasi-namesake's path, that you are safe and sheltered in the coming days.
Until next time,

Kind of a Typical Day
This is kind of a Typical Day in the Life.
I had to fill out a Manuscript Information form on Éire's Viking this morning, which includes scrolling through the manuscript itself and pulling out short excerpts that can be used in promotional stuff. Also involved is figuring out tag lines for the book. That is ALWAYS hard for me in my own work.
Anyway, I got that done and then it was time to send the latest version of EV in after I tinkered with a couple of chapters so that when my editor dives back in, she's doing it with the latest version.
AND I've got the final book of the series to work on as well. Today.
...While I am preparing for the release of An Unexpected Woman which happens NEXT MONTH.
Mondays are pretty awesome. :)
