Writing life...glamorous??? Not so much but sometimes...

Writing routine: Every morning at my computer, break for food and exercise and some trashy TV, then back to but-in-chair writing. Repeat. Rinse. Write.

But occasionally I discard the writer uniform of comfy clothes, no makeup and hair snatched out of the way in a ponytail.
Sometimes I fix up my hair, apply makeup, slip into something black and slimming, and assume the role of "Author" for a few hours.

Tomorrow night is going to be one of those nights.

 I've been invited to attend AUTHORS ON THE MOVE -- a fundraiser in CA's state capitol where the cost to attend is $200 a plate.  I'm going with another author, Dawn Lairimore, who wrote the brilliant IVY'S EVER AFTER (if you haven't read this princess & dragon unite to fight an evil prince modern fantasy, check it out now)! Our chauffeur (Dawn's dad) will drop us off at the Hyatt Hotel where we will be treated to a pre-dinner for authors only. After conversation and great food, we'll be escorted into the main room and assigned to a table, where we will be the guest at our table and answer questions about our books. We'll move to two more tables and talk more about our books. The third table will have dessert -- always a YUM moment (I've done this event before).

After speeches, introductions of authors, and dessert (did I already mention dessert??), authors will be escorted to tables where we will sign our books and get to talk books even more (I really love to talk books).

And the next day it's back to the writing routine. .
