Finally feel like my old self. Actually wrote a scene today. It is hard to get back in the saddle again when I have had such a long down time. Going camping for Mardi Gras and plan to write a bunch. On March 12-13, 2011, I will be selling books at the Frisco Fest. Please come stop by and say hello. On March 26, 2011, I will be in Houma attending the Jubilee Jambayla Writer’s Conference and book fair. Visit http://www.terrebonne.lib.la.us/jubilee2011.pdf for more information.

Watch a short video promo my husband and I shot in one take with no prescripted notes. Should I get an Oscar or what?

Happy New Year. Have about 45,000 words done on Legacy of Revenge- its getting there. About 65% finished to my best calculations. Have been having health issues, so I have been concentrating on getting better. I signed a contract last year with Cherry Adair, saying I would write a book in a year. Well I finished one, but I have until March 20, 2011 to get the sequel done, so hopefully will get it done in order to qualify for a free trip to a conference in Washington State. Please subscribe to my blog if you would like to receive updates, especially when book two is published. Thanks for visiting my site.

Sold books at Southdown and Destrehan Fairs the last two weekends. Looking for venues for sales. If you know of any good craft shows that do not cost an arm and a leg, please let me know. Have 17 chapters done on “Legacy of Revenge” so far, but have not spent as much time writing as I should. Going to Sweetwater campground for Thanksgiving, but will have 3 grandchildren with me so do not anticipate much quiet time for writing.

I have 11 chapters of Legacy of Revenge written. After a few phone calls from friends and relatives wondering about will this person do this in the next book, or will this happen, and so forth, I have decided to put a comment out here to say- let me know what you might want to see happen in Book 2. I can’t promise you I will use your idea, but you never know, and it may inspire me to create a different book altogether. Book 2 is the continuing story of Colette and Wyatt and the blossoming love story of Jacob and Laurel.
