Let me see here...

Just wondering if I post to blog it how it will show up on facebook. This is a test, this is only a test...

No words last night, just thinking about words and percolating while on the elliptical trainer. I do my best thinking in the shower or working out ;) And now I need a little more coffee to hit my brain before doing anything else.

It's off to work with me!

Hello all!

If anyone has sent me an email in the past few months my website's email has been down. I apologize! Please resend. And I can't get a hold of the guy who originally set it up to have the problem fixed. So please temporarily use my name separated by a period at lycos dot com (don't you love trying to fool phishers?) :)

In other news...Shadow of an Oak is out there and searching for a home. I am anxiously trying not to either a) annoy my agent by bugging her constantly, or b) obsessively check my phone/email to see if anyone has called about it :) I'm doing okay at a) and failing miserably at b). In the meantime I'm working on a fantasy involving ghosts, desaparecidos in Argentina, and an exchange student. It's 230 pages into it - so dreaded middle of the book - and chugging along.

Just teaching two days a week, and I still love it. I took part of the year off to get married (yeah!) and am back into the swing of things. My new married name is what I'll be using for my adult paranormal fantasy novels, one of which is also searching for a home right now. So, yeah, lots of obsessive checking of email :)

And that's all for now. Other than to say that Haagan Daas raspberry sorbet is my new weakness.
