I had so much fun picking last week’s Six Sentence Sunday that I decided to do it again. This week, I’m sharing a few sentences from the scene where Dave meets his daughter. Enjoy! He looked down at the girl, who’d plastered herself to her mamma’s leg and was watching Read more…
This is a week for firsts — first guest blog post, first three-minute-straight run (as part of the Couch to 5K program). I might as well add another one to the list: My first Six Sentence Sunday post. In my WIP, “Diva in the Dugout,” Dave and Mel had one Read more…
Thanks to everyone who stopped by yesterday to make Love & Laughter’s first guest blogger feel welcome. With 60-plus page views, I’d call Keri Ford’s visit a success. (Keri, please don’t tell me you were the visitor 50 of those 60 times.) I’ve been adding to the list of articles Read more…
I can’t remember how I first “met” Keri Ford. I think I found her through Twitter first, then picked up “On the Fence.” It doesn’t matter, though: Between her sometimes hilarious tweets and engaging, steamy stories, I’m hooked. That’s why, when Keri was looking for stops to add to her Read more…
I’m super excited to have my very first guest blog post scheduled for tomorrow, May 23. Keri Ford, whose Uninhibited in Apple Trail series kept me from getting much sleep on my overnight flight to NYC for RWA Nationals last summer, will be stopping by as part of her Roughnecks Read more…

Everyone says writers need to read anything and everything they can get their hands on. I’m sure they’re right. When I was younger, my nose was always buried in a book. Reading was my favorite free-time activity. Nowadays, with a full-time job and a Boyfriend, I have a lot less Read more…
My first Desert Dreams Conference won’t be my last. It’s over now, and I just settled into my favorite spot at the Starbucks in Camp Verde (near the outlet, naturally). The plan is to sneak in a little writing time before I crash. Am I nuts? Why not skip the attempt Read more…
Long time no hear from me, eh? I might not be blogging very much these days, but I’m still writing, writing, writing my free time away. All that hard work is starting to pay off, though. I have a completely revised/hopefully ready for submission version of “Operation Snag Mike Brad” Read more…
Twitter is abuzz. Bloggers are raving. Last night I read a story on a mainstream wire service talking it up. (I’m debating whether I can get away with running it on our books page without causing an uproar.) What has everyone so hot and bothered? “Fifty Shades of Grey.” I Read more…
