2016 Worlds-Tuesday Practices

Hello from Boston!!!! I'm soooo happy to be back in one of my favorite cities. Skating + Boston = perfection!
I started the morning off at pairs practice where I was very excited to see Sui/Han, who I adore and want to see atop the podium this year. They did a run-through of their intense Spanish-themed short program, highlighted by some HUGE elements. Sui looks so fierce and strong compared to the other dainty Chinese pair girls. She and Han of them have such a great dynamic together.
Kayne/O'...

GOLD RUSH Update

Hi there! It's been a while since I've posted any GOLD RUSH news so I thought I'd give an update. First, in case you haven't heard, GOLD RUSH is a new standalone skating romance I'm working on. Liza from the Edge Series and the Ice Series is the main character, and the story follows her journey toward the 2014 Winter Olympics. It's a spin-off from the other series, but you won't be missing any vital information if you haven't read the other books (but you should definitely consider checking t...

2016 U.S. Nationals-Sunday Events

I had a lot to catch up on at home after Nationals, so forgive me for the delay in posting my last recap! Sunday was another up and down day in the emotions department. It started off with lots of fun at the Friends of Figure Skating breakfast followed by a quick trip to the Saintly City Cat Show next door to the arena. It was both hilarious and adorable! Meet the cat known as Rhett Butler:


And his ice castle LOL:

Back to the skating, the men had a high standard to live up to after the ladies'...

2016 U.S. Nationals-Saturday Events

Well, today was an emotional roller coaster. To sum up, here were the things that made me ecstatic:
1) Tarah Kayne and Danny O'Shea being total bosses and nailing their whole program like it was an easy practice. When Tarah landed the throw Lutz, I became a crying mess. The way they relate to each other is so lovely and honest and it really draws you in to their performance. 2) Marissa Castelli and Mervin Tran energizing the crowd with their Journey program. Even though they had a couple...

2016 U.S. Nationals-Friday Events

Friday started off with an AMAZING junior free dance event. The depth at the junior level in dance in the U.S. is astounding, and this event showed off just how diverse and strong our teams are. The tiny teams of Katherine Grosul/Cameron Colucci and Eliana Gropman/Ian Somerville were adorable and so impressive for their ages. Chloe Lewis/Logan Bye gave a passionate tango performance, and I hope they can continue to move up the ladder because they are one of my favorite teams to watch. The who...

2016 U.S. Nationals-Thursday Events

Greetings from St. Paul, Minnesota! I've made my annual trek to the U.S. Figure Skating Championships (this makes 16 in a row!), and I'm loving being back in this world that I so enjoy. I arrived in St. Paul on Wednesday evening and started my day Thursday at senior dance practice. This was after reacquainting myself with the Skyway that I walked through many times back in 2008 when Nationals was here.
I watched the first group of dance and got to see my favorites Madison Chock and Evan Bates...

Dancing With the Stars Tour

I haven't blogged in awhile, but I wanted to share a quick review and my photos from the Dancing With the Stars "Dance All Night" tour. It was an awesome show! I've been to the So You Think You Can Dance tour and Move Live, but this was my first DWTS Tour show. I think the overall dancing was a little better at Move Live, but this was still a fantastic two hours of entertainment.
The show started with a high-energy group number to Icona Pop's "Emergency" and then Val got on the mike and welcom...
