Happy New Year, a new book, and resolutions oh my!

I've loved 2012, but I am more than ready for 2013. I've done a cruddy job blogging here. That's got to change. I'm so excited about the books I'll be releasing this year. I hope my readers love them. It's so much fun to write romance. My husband likes to tell people I write steamy books somewhere between Harlequin Romance and 50 Shades. I just laugh.
He's my ultimate hero. He's such a huge part of who I am today. Back when we met my life was headed in a different direction. He believed in me, supported me, encouraged me.

My resolutions this year:

Write, write, write. I want to do Candy Havens' FastDraft at least three times this year. If you're a writer, check out Havens' Fast Draft class if you can. It's AMAZING!Continue submitting to publishers. I'm an indie author, and I love it. I realize the book world is changing. But I want to be a Harlequin author. It's been my dream FOREVER. My first romance was a Presents. Greek shipping tycoon meets virginal secretary who's won a vacation. He sees her, loves her on sight, steals her away and holds her captive on his ship. Totally, completely, 100% wrong on every level imaginable, and still I LOVED it. My cousin and I read it secretly in 7th grade. I think she stole it from her mother. From then on I was hooked. I devoured the books. My high school librarian subscribed to the Harlequin books and let me be the first reader. When I attended a national conference a Silhouette author gave me her flower the company had given the authors on the way into the Harlequin/Silhouette party. That flower sits on my bedside table, a constant reminder of my dream.Work on giving back more. I want to do more critiques and be more of a cheerleader for my writing friends. Blog more often. :)New book: January will mark my next new release on kindle: Second Chance Hero, a steamy romantic suspense. It's a reunion story, my favorite kind of romance. In the meantime, don't forget you can find my other books on Amazon, and as always if you read my books and enjoy them, please rate them and write a short review to others can find them too. Have an amazing new year!
