In honor of Sex and the City 2’s release in just 7 days, I thought I would do a little blog countdown. 🙂 I have been so excited about this movie coming out! It’s like getting a chance to visit with my girlfriends and see what they’ve been up to for the past couple of years. True SATC fans will know what I’m talking about here, right ladies? Yes, it sounds insane, but these women are a part of my life. Even though they are totally fictional, they are more real to me than a lot of people I actually…

When I was younger, I used to sleepwalk. I don’t think it was ever really a nightly kind of thing. At least I hope not. How in the world I managed those stairs without ever falling, I’ll never know. (Okay, so I did fall down them several times, just not while I was sleepwalking.) I didn’t want to believe my family when they first told me I was sleep walking. I thought my sister was just making fun of me. But one particularly memorable morning, I came down and Mom and K were laughing at me. I asked what was…

Wow, I forgot what it’s like to get up before 8 AM. It sucks just as much as I thought it would :P. Yes, I know, I am so spoiled. But getting up this morning is all in the name of good writing. Now that I snagged an appointment with my absolute number one dream agent (squeeeeeee!) at Nationals, I have to get off my bum and write, write, write!!! This novel needs to be in tip-top shape by the end of July. So, with newfound motivation, I find myself up early to meet a writing friend at Cafe Carolina…

Well, last night’s Survivor Finale was a huge disappointment. Heroes vs. Villains was truly one of the best seasons out of the past 20 Survivor Seasons, and I so wanted Russell or Parvati to win. It’s funny because all I’ve told my sister about it for the past couple months is that I’ll be happy if anyone but Sandra wins. And of course… Sandra won! Last night on the live broadcast, Jeff asked her whether being the first ever to win two seasons makes her the best Survivor ever and she said yes. I beg to differ here. Sure, she…

I know it’s only Friday, but my eyes are already turned towards Monday’s Agent and Editor signups. RWA’s National Conference at the end of July holds many exciting moments I’m sure, but the most important from where I stand is the agent appointment. Last year, I wanted to pitch my contemporary series romance to the editor at Silhouette Desire. I got my wish. She had time available, I pitched to her, and she asked for a full manuscript! That’s why I’ll be attending RWA as a PRO this year instead of a general member (one step up from last year)….

My 14th book of the year. And it made me cry. This is also the first thing I’ve ever read by Elin Hildebrand. I really enjoyed this novel. The reason I picked it up was because a reader on a random forum recommended it for seeing how an author uses multiple points of view. I am so happy that I discovered this author! Here’s the basic story: A group of 4 couples are best friends on the island of Nantucket. They name themselves the Castaways and do everything together – vacations, celebrations, etc. But then one day, while celebrating their…
