My Resolution.
I love my twitter like chocolate loves caramel. When that little red number pops up on facebook, I squeal like a woman who's just found caramel covered in chocolate. The internet makes me happy and I so enjoy connecting with people I might never otherwise meet.
But I haven't had a letter in almost a year. And I haven't written a letter in years. Stamps are for those annoying vendors who haven't figured out to set up web-based payment systems. And every time I lick an envelope I'm surprised at how bad the glue tastes.
So this year, I'm pulling out one of my trusty pens (promo from my buddy Gabriella Edwards) and real paper notecards and I will write a handwritten note, card or even letter once a day, at least four days out of the week.
I will save the U.S. Postal Service single-handedly, I'm convinced.

Six Sentence Sunday: You see, Delia has this...thing.
It's another six sentence snippet from STONE KISSED
. Reviews have been generally positive, and I'm looking forward to the release day on 12/27 (though of course, you can preorder on your Kindle
, NookColor or other e-reader now). Be sure to visit the other authors at
http://sixsunday.blogspot.com
for their #SixSunday snippets. After all, there's nothing lonelier than an empty e-reader. Well, maybe something but...)
Delia stood before the thick oak doors of the Steward County General Hospital four and half hours later. Waiting won't make it any better.
"Waiting won't make it any better," the statue of St. Francis said from his alcove to the right of the entrance. His speech had slowed and softened over the years so he sounded like the locals who rested on his bench before him.
"I know," she mumbled between clenched teeth. "Give me a minute."

Five cups!
Coffee Time Romance gave Stone Kissed five coffee cups and Maura said she wanted to skip to the end (but she didn't!)
Between you and me, whenever I get a "Your book has been reviewed" notice I look at the message through my fingers. And according to authors with healthy backlists, the anxiety never really goes away.
