So close…
…to the end of this book, I can taste it. It and the warm whole wheat chocolate chip cookie bowl I'm devouring as I write this. This week I've done a guest blog and an interview over at Under the Covers Book Blog. They're celebrating 500 followers and if you haven't been over there, go [...]

Favorite Tumblr Posts From Recent Days
I'm doing this kind of post today, a picture one because, well, it's fairly easy and not taxing my brain. Most of my cells today are focused on Forever In Blue Jeans as I am in the final turn. I've come around the last bend and can see the checkered flag at the finish line. [...]

Been Writin' So I'm Sharin' An Excerpt
What do y'all think about my L? I love it! I love the corsets I use most often, too, but I love this L! I think as people see it more, they'll associate it with me and that whole recognition and branding thing that I've been reading about will maybe take effect. Who knows. We'll [...]

Convince Me I Need A Keurig!
If you have one and love it, convince me that I need one. Y'all know I'm a coffee whore. It's a plain and simple fact. I am told more often than not in this online community when people think of me they think of three things … Coffee, cupcakes, and Vinter. It's more than just [...]

My Porn List
According to the World English Dictionary as cited on Dictionary.com, Porn, also called: Porno, publications or broadcasts that demonstrate an unhealthy or voyeuristic interest in a particular subject. Well, okay. Unhealthy, I don't know about that, but I'm sure there are cases to prove it. Voyeuristic, oh hell yes. When the word porn is brought [...]

I want to write…
… a story with a heroine based on this picture… I am just completely inspired and fascinated by the swirls of color. Of course, I'm completely inspired and fascinated by this image too… I have a thing for the jeans and barefoot look… sexy and casual and comforting even. Anyway, just thought I'd share… Off [...]

I'm Still Here…
I'm still here. I promise. I pinched a nerve in my lower back a few days ago and well… PAIN. To sit, to walk, to stand, to pretty much move at all. PAIN. Add in PMS and I'm just a barrel of fun! I was just starting to get back to my writing after the [...]

A Moment to Catch Up
It's been a long couple of weeks. My mom has been here. We've gone to the races. We've had a lot of heart to heart talks. I've written only about 400 words. I still haven't heard from my editor, but I have sent her an email, just inquiring. I'm an anxious as the rest of [...]

I Met Kyle Busch!
(this was the image that was the first inspiration for Cam Carter in Stick Shift…cocky, self assured, a little wicked and devilish) Yes I did! He was doing a signing at Walmart, organized by NOS Energy Drinks. The store is down the street from me and well, hell, y'all KNOW I'm not gonna pass up [...]
