09/13/2005: "Hello"

I haven't disappeared off of the face of the earth--although I've sort of felt that way. I returned home Labor Day week-end. I'm so happy to report that my mother is doing fabulous. Thanks for all the healing thoughts and prayers. And since I've been home, it's been pretty hectic--alas, none of it terribly interesting. Tonight it was total comfort food for dinner--meatloaf and mashed potatoes.

However, on the writing front...I'm so excited to see my first Blaze out this month. For everyone out there that loved Temptations, I think you'll love the Blazes as well. I'm about to start a project that I'm so excited about. It's a time travel. My very modern heroine is at a traveling exhibit, Sex Through the Ages, when she finds herself transported back to 18th century Scotland. I'm REALLY looking forward to writing this.

"Some men admit they avoid confrontation (about breaking up) because they’re afraid we’ll cry. Of course we’ll cry; we cry at Hallmark commercials. What they don’t understand is that we’re not crying because of them, we’re crying because now we have to get naked in front of someone else.”
