In The Still Of The Night by Samantha Lucas

Up In Flames by Emma Sinclair

Weight Watcher Wednesday

Wednesday, January 10th, 2007 | Uncategorized | No Comments

I gained a stinking 1/2 pound last week. But, I’m not surprised. I didn’t exercise the three days before I weighed in, and I ate like a little piglet that previous weekend and I cheated. So sue me! However, I’m still below the original goal I’d set, so that’s good.

Also, I had to change my weigh-in day because the hubby’s schedule changed. He used to be off on Saturday’s and Sunday’s, and Saturday was my day. But I’ve now switched to Wednesday’s so I’ll be going this evening. Wish me luck that I’ve lost my goal of 2 pounds..hopefully more. I’ve been doing really good since last Wednesday. I haven’t cheated, I’ve exercised four days, plus I’ll be exercising tomorrow before I go as well. So here’s to weight loss!

Extra! Extra!

Weight Loss This Week - 3 lbs

Total Weight Loss - 14 1/2 lbs.

W.I.P. Tuesday

Wednesday, January 10th, 2007 | Uncategorized | No Comments

My new story is rolling along. It’s tentatively titled Thoroughly Tempted. Here’s the blurb…

Wesley Duncan’s cousin sends him on a forced vacation, a week at Tempted, the perfect place for him to recover from a gun shot wound he received on the job. But recovery becomes the last thing on his mind with a woman like Sierra around.

Sierra Morgan is looking forward to having Tempted, the Florida resort and spa she owns with her best friend, all to herself for a week. So, when a sexy stranger shows up, Sierra is in serious danger of becoming thoroughly tempted.

I’m currently on page 25 (single spaced) of this wip and it’s coming along well. I have no targeted word count….I’m just letting the writing take me where it wants me to go. I have several (depending on how long it ends up) e-pubs I’m considering sending it to, so we’ll see.

Happy Tuesday

Mystery Monday

Tuesday, January 9th, 2007 | Uncategorized | No Comments

My cozy author feature this week is Kate Collins. She’s the author of four cozy mystery’s called “The Flower Shop Mystery’s.”

The Flower Shop Mystery’s are about Abby Knight, a defunct law student who bought a flower shop. The first book in the series is called “Mum’s The Word.”

So maybe Abby’s life isn’t the bed of roses she was hoping it would be. She adores her job, but a new low-cost competitor is killing her profits - and a black SUV just rammed her vintage Corvette in a hit-and-run. Determined to track down the driver, she accepts the help of hunky ex-cop Marco Salvare. But their budding relationship is threatened when the trail turns deadly. Now Abby is caught in a tangle of menacing phone calls, police corruption, and murderous road rage. If she’s not careful, the next flower arrangement might be for her own funeral.

The second book in the series is called “Slay It With Flowers”, the third, “Dearly Depotted” (which I’m reading now and loving it), and the fourth, “Snipped In The Bud” (the one I read first).

Someone orders a black rose for Abby’s old law school nemesis, Professor “Snapdragon” Puffer. But her plans for a speedy delivery are foiled when he catches her putting the bloom on his desk and sends it straight into the trash. Abby flees in terror, only to run smack into Carson Reed, the professor who recently had her arrested at an animal rights protest. After a biting exchange, Abby storms out of the building. But if there’s anything she can’t stand, it’s injustice and bullies. So, even though she knows bad luck comes in threes, she ignores the advice of her sometimes boyfriend, hunk-a-licious Marco Salvare, and heads back in to retrieve her dignity and her flower - only to find the rose now decorating a dead professor, and herself the prime suspect.

I have absolutely loved this series even though I read them all out of order. Ms. Collins has a new book in the series coming out in March called “Acts of Violets.” You can visit her on the web here.

Now, go out and buy some books!

Did I Stick To My Goals?

Monday, January 8th, 2007 | Uncategorized | No Comments

Ha! Fat chance. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. The two stories I told you about last week started off pretty strong…I was keeping to my word count and then by Thursday, I fizzled out. Didn’t write anything Friday. However, inspiration struck on Saturday and I wrote over 20 pages this past weekend…on a totally different story. How crazy is that?

Still, it did feel good to put words on paper. It is an awesome feeling. So, I plan to continue with this story and hopefully complete it soon and start another. The other two might just sit on the back burner for now unless another magic jolt of inspirations kicks in.

I hope you have a great week!
