My Sexy Saturday: More fun with Dave and Melinda
Thank goodness for My Sexy Saturday. Without its weekly posts, this blog would get none of my attention at all. Does it matter that I’m waist-deep in the first draft of my third Love and Baseball story? It’s still untitled for now, but I’m falling for Anne Marie Becker‘s...
My SexySaturday: Wild Boys
Er … don’t get the wrong idea. There’s only one Wild Boy, actually. I just couldn’t resist the chance to misappropriate another ’80s song title for a blog post. (Like The Escape Club, I’m living in the ’80s— just not headed for the ’90s. We’re smack-dab in the middle...
Unlucky 13? Not so much
I’ve never liked the number 13. And I’m not alone. According to Wikipedia, the Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute in Asheville, N.C., estimates that 17 to 21 million Americans are affected by a fear of this day, making it the most feared day and date in history. “Some people are...
DIVA has a release date
When I decided I wanted to join the ranks of indie publishing last spring, my initial plan was to release my first book, OPERATION SNAG MIKE BRAD, around my birthday in October. I thought having a book out by my 42nd birthday sounded like an excellent idea. Plans changed,...
Did anyone get that license plate number?
Four days after signing a contract for DIVA IN THE DUGOUT, I’m still riding the high that comes with a first sale. But in the quieter moments (read: when I’m not jumping like a maniac and talking 3,000 miles a minute), I find myself wondering: What just happened here?...
My fourth contribution to My Sexy Saturday
To celebrate the sale of DIVA IN THE DUGOUT to Turquoise Morning Press, I’m digging deep for this week’s My Sexy Saturday blog hop. The rules are simple: Post 7 paragraphs or 7 sentences or 7 words. The choice is yours. It can be from a WIP or something...
My story about The Call
The Call, when it finally came, didn’t happen the way I expected it to. Does anyone’s? Rather than arriving with the ring of my phone, my call happened on the click of a mouse. I was sitting at my desk at work Tuesday night, killing time while I waited...
Back at Six Sentence Sunday
Wow. Long time, no blog, eh? It’s been too long since I jumped into Six Sentence Sunday, so here goes. When last we left Dave and Melinda, they’d just started making out. Terrible place to leave the poor dears, I know. These six sentences pick up several days later....
Six Sentence Sunday No. 4
Wow. With this weekend’s entry, I’ve completed a month of Six Sentence Sunday offerings. Let’s see if I can end the month with a bang, shall we? These six sentences pick up after Mel watches Dave tuck their daughter in and read her a bedtime story, so she’s feeling...
Six Sentence Sunday
I was totally bummed to find out last Sunday’s Six Sentence Sunday link was broken. I’ll try not to let that happen again. This week’s submission is again from “Diva in the Dugout.” Soon after Dave meets his daughter for the first time, the three of them head to...
