Nice, Caitlin! I still have to work today, but school was cancelled for Tessa. Lucky her!

Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments That was some storm! I'm heading home today. Caitlin, are the roads clear yet? Jenny are you buried? It looked like that storm covered all of Iowa as it moved thru, and all snow.

we didn't get too much here, about 5 inches. it was worse farther south of us. its super windy though so roads are drifted and white out conditions with snow blowing everywhere. roads weren't great this morning, I'm glad I have 4 wheel drive. its really cold again too. supposed to be miserable out the next 5 days.

Good luck. I still have 30 more pounds I'm trying to lose. I recently started using an app called Fooducate. It's really cool. I use it to track my food but it also has a ton of information on the foods you eat. A lot of stuff I thought was healthy I turned about to be all wrong about.

YES!! Come!!! Bring Adele and then you can be horribly outnumbered lol! They are still booking authors I think ;)

David Estes (davidestesbooks) | 10717 comments Mod
Ha! That would be SO FUN! Oh I wish I could attend as an author! I'm hoping end of 2014 and into 2015 I'll have the opportunity to go to some awesome events, but for now we've got to save every dollar we can :)


message 2071: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
Ah, too bad, that would have been FUN! Ah well, we will take lots of pics for you I'm sure, and we'll all meet up someday, hopefully sooner rather than later! And if you book for anything, you must tell your adoring fans!! (That would be ME!) HA! And okay, the rest of the group I suppose ;)


message 2072: by Jen (new)

Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments I'd be up for a trip to Australia! Of course, that $ thing could be a problem. If only I were independently wealthy - I'd take Karen and Jenny and we'd head to the Great Barrier Reef and lay on the beach with our books! THEN you could join us for margaritas or iced tea or whatever it is you all drink down there. What exactly DO you drink?

Ah well. We can dream. Or just go to Nashville in June! Woo-hoo!

Australia is an amazing place to visit/live! Of course, by then I'll be in Hawaii :) Here they drink pretty much anything LOL! Although I usually just stick to water and fruit juices ;)

I'm in love with that cover and will most likely end up having to buy the series in hardcover!

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
That's why I just bought it, although I still need to find a copy of Incarnate in hardcover!


message 2080: by Jen (new)

Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments I'm good with Hawaii. Especially Maui - I know a nice place to stay and a great beach (Ulua) My daughter Makenna is actually named for Makena beach in Maui . . . plus we could get some ribs to grill from Azeka's and go eat at Mama's Fish House -

David Staniforth (davidstaniforth) | 149 comments I finally finished the 3rd book of my fantasy trilogy. It's been much more difficult than the prior two, but looking back it was well worth the effort.

Now I can get on with the next project :D

Meanwhile, I finally have a little reading time in my life. Reasons to be cheerful :o)

Dre (drewolf) | 266 comments Woot Woot, David! That's amazing :D I wish I can start my own, too. I'd have to think of an original idea and get on with it. And having a little reading time is always a great thing. Woot!
