You Can Take the Girl out of Texas, but …

A blog! I need a blog! This thought has been keeping me up nights for quite a while, so finally, here it goes …


Texas cowI'm pleased to announce I'll be blogging here regularly (I hope) about my writing and family life, my adventures in the Colorado mountains, and mostly, my musings on what makes Texas so crazy and yet so special. Hint: It has everything to do with hard-livin', hell-raisin', big-hearted people. And maybe cows.


The big news today on the writing front is that the paperback release of Blue Straggler is scheduled for mid-February now, and readers can even pre-order the book now via Barnes and Noble. I can't wait to hold a proof in my hands soon. And my husband BETTER take me out to dinner. I'm talking steak and vodka, baby.


I'm already making some calls to see if I can set up a couple of book signings down in Texas in March. Let's face it: I love a good excuse to enjoy the spring wildflowers, especially the bluebonnets, and perhaps a margarita or two with some of my dear friends at Texas A&M. Stay tuned for updates!


For now, I'll leave you with a phrase a colleague just told me "must be a Texas-ism." I simply told her that my laptop crashed "like a mother dog." And now I'm thinking that may just be a "Kathy-ism."
