My First Poem…

Okay, here it is. The poem that I had to write for my current class. I had to do a lot of research on how to even write one. Let me know what you think… Only if I Grant It A simple word not so simple It builds me up It tears me down An [...]

Writing Poetry Terrifies Me!!!

I know, I know! I’m a writer…but of novels with action and adventure and LOVE. I have never, ever written a poem, but write a poem I must. *shudder* Let me rewind a bit. As you all know, I have gone back to school. Last semester’s class, International Business, darn near killed me. That teacher [...]

Jeans and Heels Writer

I’d like to welcome this month’s guest blogger, Angelita Gill (AKA my writing soul sister!) She truly knows how to bring her characters to life on the page. Glad to have you, Angelita. A question people often ask, once I proudly tell them I am a romance writer, is where do I get my inspiration [...]

GHS 20 Year Reunion Fun!

Last night, Keith and I attended my 20 year high school reunion. The venue was beautiful and the company even better. I think the most shocking for me was how many people (mostly the guys) I didn’t recognize…though, I think it had more to do with my intense shyness back then more than everyone having [...]

Romance Was In Bloom This Weekend ~ Congratulations Peter & Lindsey!

This weekend, Keith and I got to share in the heartfelt and very beautiful exchanging of vows between our close friends, Peter and Lindsey.  Their day was perfect despite the rain that forced the ceremony inside.  As a romance writer, I love to watch the dynamics between couples.  It is great fodder for creating true to [...]

RWA 2011 National Conference ~ So Much Energy!

This past year has been an active one, despite my being very quiet here. I went back to school, recently became the Center for Distance Learning Student representative for the Student Affairs Committee, still have the day job, and the kidlets, hubby, and house keep me VERY occupied. And crazy enough, I STILL had…well, I [...]

Lisa Lewis – How "Love's Road Home" was a dream come true

Hi everyone! Sorry for such a late post, but the weather was beautiful today and some quality family time was needed. And that worthwhile excuse plays into my blog content perfectly…  DDCT “What the heck is that?” you ask. It stands for Dreams Do Come True.  And I can honestly say that it’s not just [...]

Immorti by MK Mancos Release From Wild Rose Press!

I can’t tell you how happy I am to see this release day finally here. This particular book has had quite the journey. If it were an airplane passenger, it would have racked up a lot of frequent flier miles. It all started about 2005 when I got the idea for this book from a [...]

High Octane by Kathleen Scott

Thanks for having me here today, Sandra to promote my latest Samhain Release, High Octane. I absolutely love action and space battles and epic love stories. Combine all those ingrediants together and you get a story after my own heart. It’s odd how some story lines will come to you. This one began with a [...]

Life and HEAs

Back this past summer when Sandra invited me to do a guest blog (thank you Sandra!), I thought, Cool! I’ve got about five months to write a post. Not too hard to do. Guess what? It’s now the day before Christmas Eve, and I’m trying to figure out what to write about here. So after [...]
