I missed heading out for the boys’ swim lessons this morning. They provided a “goal” to getting out of the house on time. I did manage to get the boys to Summer Day Camp pretty much at the stroke of …

Filed under A Writer's Life

Well, this week has certainly marched on by. Lots happened, lots of writing, lots of inspiration, lots of rejections (yeah, I keep telling myself that they are part of the publication process, but it’s still an ouch).

Swim lessons are …

Is it really Friday already?

The week has been dominated by swim lessons, summer day camp, and topped off by a visit from my best friend from college. We had a fantastic visit and vowed not to let so much …

Lost in 1849

Filed under A Writer's Life

Sorry for my lengthy absence, rumors of my abandonment of the blogging world have been highly exaggerated. Instead, I’ve been lost in another year, another century, in fact. 1849. I’m sure you’ve gathered by now that the historical romance I’m …

Monday, April 14th, 2008

My hubby’s been out of town for a few days, and I’ve been “home alone” with the kids (picture me doing a Macauley Culkin scream). I’ve been getting up at 5 so that I could get a little work done …

I am totally jazzed. The Romance Writers of America (RWA) annual convention is “right up the street” from me this year (about 6 hours, but hey!). Registration is now open and this morning, despite my internet connection being slower than …
