When I was kid, the Olympics bugged me. They took my shows off TV for two weeks. The nerve. And I’ve never liked sports. Until the summer of 1984. Newly married, I was a hairdresser with a beauty shop at my house. My husband worked days and half the night as a dental technician, then […]
Redeeming the Bad Guy # Giveaway
Over the years, I’ve redeemed several bad girls and a few bad guys. It always makes me wish I could manipulate real people the way I do my characters. Currently, I’m molding a bad boy rock star fresh out of rehab into hero material. On top of that, he abandoned his twins six years ago. […]
New Year Goals #Giveaway
Happy New Year’s Eve. It’s an especially special day at our house since it’s our son’s birthday. He’s twenty. How did that happen? Wasn’t it just yesterday that after 2 1/2 months of bed rest, the doctor sent me to the hospital to be induced. Three hours of pain later, a nurse said, “Maybe you’ll […]

Five Little Authors # Giveaway
It always amazes me how authors write so differently. At times over the years, I’ve heard about a book that sounded very similar to one of my unpublished works, only to buy the other author’s book and read a story completely different than mine, even though the subject matter was the same. Case in point–with […]
Lots of Firsts #Giveaway
I’m having a lot of firsts this month. My first novella releases on Sept 28th. It includes my first story set on a beach. First book in ten years without a cowboy on the cover. But my guy is still a cowboy and he even owns Romantic Beach Rides so couples can rent a horse […]
Writer Mojo #Giveaway
A few months ago, we bought a new desk for my husband. Only once we got it home, he didn’t like it. But it had so much storage with bookcases and a file drawer. Though I loved my white desk, the keyboard tray was too small to hold my my keyboard and my mouse. So […]
How They Met #Giveaway
Part of the fun of writing contemporary romance is creating unique, fun, or interesting ways for the hero and heroine to meet. Over the years I’ve used real-life things to inspire cute meets in my books. Like the time back when my husband was a youth director. We took a busload of teens to a […]
Vacation Inspiration #Giveaway
Since I started writing, whenever we go on vacation, a book begins to percolate. I often plan our trips around a jaunt I need to make for a book I’m writing. Back when I began my rodeo series, we visited the Fort Worth Stockyards and Aubrey, Texas. Both featured prominently in the series. Since we […]
Daddies are Special #Giveaway
In 2007, I received word that I’d finaled in the Touched By Love writing contest and the winners would be announced at the Faith, Hope, & Love Conference in Dallas in July. I’d already paid and planned to attend the American Christian Fiction Writers Conference in September, also in Dallas that year. My husband […]
