Go to the beach first, or hit the pool? I LOVED it. I could so easily get used to that slovenly kind of life. This past week I was in Fort Myers on the west coast, Estero Island to be exact, in a studio condo four floors up facing the Gulf of Mexico and the lovely tropical sunsets. This was actually one of our cheaper vacations but one of our ( Read more... )

Poor misguided Mya, faithful and good all her life, then tragedy strikes and her world is turned upside down. Luckily she has a really seductive guardian angel.

Mazriel is the fallen angel who goes around in the guise of an estate attorney named Marco. He is the assigned executor of Mya's trust and that's how they meet.

I haven't been doing anything particularly interesting lately. I've been drawing a lot and that's always a good way for me to kill off a few days. I posted my short story on a few other sites and have been getting good feedback on it. I'm still working on ironing out Sanctuary. I'm trying to learn MS Word.

My, my, editors are expensive creatures. Even the less expensive ones are still expensive. I'm not going to be able to afford an editing at this point unless I can get another job. I suppose for the time being, everything is going to be put on hold. Instead of agents and editors, I'm going to have to concentrate on applying for jobs now.

I talked to the artist Saturday who will be doing the Smashwords edition of my cover for Cemetery Moon. I'm very excited about the prospect of working with him because I've seen the amazing compositions he can do. Better yet, he kept assuring me that all my seemingly complicated ideas seem to be no big deal for him to accomplish. Better still, he ( Read more... )

Yesterday, with the untiring, selfless help of my beloved husband, I was able to get all three manuscripts officially copyrighted. Filling out government forms is well...Lots of repetition and very tedious, slightly time consuming business, but it's done and the certificates are in the mail.

This is the guardian angel from my series, Pershabael, who goes by the name Percival Shelby when he's pretending to be a human ( Read more... )

I got a rejection letter from an agent recently who said my project had merit, but she just wasn't passionate enough about it to take it on. But just the fact that she took the time to write me and tell me that was encouraging. It was like the one I got awhile ago who said my idea sounded intriguing. Even though I was basically being rejected, I ( Read more... )
