Ready. Set. Write!


I’m getting my hair cut and colored today, so I took the afternoon off. Then I looked at my workload and realized I could take the whole day off without any real problems. So, this morning, I’m perched on my futon in the office with my mug of coffee and my laptop. I have Thieves to write about.

See y’all mañana!

Paying it forward for a REAL hero

Get ready to vote.

My friend, Terri Garey, is calling out for a favor.

As writers, we know all about heroes. Well, Terri’s brother-in-law is a real life hero and this is your chance to say thank you to him. He is a Federal officer who works on the FBI’s Innocent Images task force, tracking down internet predators. (Like on the recent Dateline report, TO CATCH A PREDATOR) He’s devoted 21 years of his life to making other people’s life safe and now he’s been nominated as an America’s Most Wanted All-Star.

The grand price is $10K and a trip. The winner is determined by votes. Please take a second and go vote for Phil Dubord at America’s Most Wanted All-Star.

Thanks.

Golden Heart and Rita Finalists announced today!


Good luck to all my friends who entered the GH and Ritas this year. I have my fingers and toes crossed for you!

Extra fingers crossed for Maria Geraci. She has written a helluva regency-set historical. It came close to finaling last year. Anyway, this story deserves to not only final–but to win.

fishdog’s flophaus: what a trip

fishdog’s flophaus: what a trip

Or, as I like to call it– A day of firsts.

#1 boy’s 1st real concert, 1st sex talk, 1st time getting patted down, 1st hubcap burger–all in one day.

And there are some pictures, too.

It’s a little long but very enjoyable–as only my husband could make it.
