Man, isn’t she so cute? Smiling away like that. A year ago, she had no idea….
what real deadlines feel like,
that she will never sleep the same again,
that Twitter is actually an awesome place to hang out, 
that she could feel stress, frustration, betrayal, joy and gratitude simultaneously,
what it’s like to cry over cutting a whole scene for the better of the manuscript,
that adding two pages about riding up in an elevator could be so smexy,
how energized she will feel while proofreading a final galley at 2 in the morning,
how thrilling it will be to see her name after the copyright symbol,
that having her words reviewed–for better or worse–is a true blessing,
who her real friends are. And she had many!

Relive the BIG DAY here. And then have a cupcake!

Speaking of Love – cover & launch

Did you read PLAYING AT LOVE? Did you love Mac? Me too! And now, she has her own story.
SPEAKING OF LOVE 
is H E R E ! ! !

Speech teacher and successful matchmaker Mackenzie Simms decides to find a woman for her friend, handsome newspaper tycoon Rick Duffy. Though they’ve been each other’s go-to dates for the past month, Mac and Rick couldn’t be more different: she is outspoken, sarcastic, and completely loathes his privileged lifestyle. He’s laid-back, unassuming, and seems comfortable at an upper-class charity function. So why can’t she stop thinking about him? 

Rick knows he and the opinionated-though-adorable Mackenzie are better off as friends, so he agrees to the double-date getaway Mac plans at his family cabin. But seeing Mac cuddle up with her “friendly” date rankles Rick beyond reason, and Mac regrets her matchmaking scheme the minute she sees the way her beauty-queen cousin looks at Rick. Can Mac ‘fess up to what’s really in her heart, when speaking her mind puts everything at risk?

puppy love

“Someone help me! Help me! Help me, pleeeee-heeeeeeease….”

Every few months, I get the Puppy Fever. And right now, I’m sweating it out. I mean, look! How completely adorbe, right?
I want a dog.
No, let me rephrase.
I want to want a dog.
I want to want to want a dog.

Whenever I get this way, I have to remind myself what a big commitment and responsibility it is to have a pet. I don’t have the best track record. I kill house plants, people. All the time. I also remind myself about all the “cleaning up,” etc. that has to be done with a dog. This usually helps the Puppy Fever to pass quickly. But for some reason, this time, it’s not sticking. It’s kind of cute, right? 
(I’ll admit, my current Puppy Fever is most likely fueled by the story I’m working on. My guy has dogs. And it’s dreamy.)
So I’m wondering….for a semi-stable, semi-responsible chick like me, why should I NOT get a dog? Huh? Tell me now, or forever hold your peace.

I’ll be waiting, and looking HERE.
