She bloggeth, she bloggeth not

I can only plead end-of-the-book madness! I'm on the homestretch with the new book, "A Wanted Man" (July 07, HQN hardcover), starring Rowdy Rhodes, of "The Man from Stone Creek" fame, and his lady, schoolmarm-with-a-secret Lark Morgan. All hell's breaking loose in Stone Creek, and I don't mean maybe.

Gunfights.
Train robberies.
Love scenes that will peel the paint off the walls.

It's crazy.
It's exciting.
Best of all, it's FUN!

Rowdy and Lark

They're the hero and heroine of my work-in-progress--and they are red-hot.

Mom, don't read this book. :)

At the Kitchen Table

One of the best blessings of my life as a writer is the freedom. I've got a killer deadline, but I can set up this laptop anywhere. There other day, I wrote an entire chapter while watching QVC. (I don't recommend this method, although it will improve your wardrobe.)

Today, I'm blogging at the kitchen table, after my usual stint of journaling and personal devotions.

In a little while, I'll go upstairs and write another chapter of "A Wanted Man". I can't wait for you to read it.

Fabulous

Did you know that words have vibrations? Good words bring good experiences, and the reverse, of course, is also true.

My life is full of fabulous things, and I'll bet yours is, too. I sometimes get distracted by all the non-fabulous stuff, and then I get into alignment with it, and it isn't any fun at all.

I'm planning to have a FABULOUS day today.

How about you?

And here's an affirmation we can all use:
I believe something fabulous is going to happen to me today!

Showing Up

Some days, and this is one of them, I'd like to crawl back into bed and sleep, sleep, sleep...

I can't, of course, because I have a deadline.

I always have a deadline.

What's a cowgirl to do? Get up, pull on her clothes, give those boot straps a good hard tug, saddle up and RIDE.

I don't always feel like writing, as much as I love it.

Some days, it's all I can do to show up.

Fortunately, that's all the Boss asks of me. I get on that horse.

And then it carries me.
