My Mac is away from me this weekend and I miss him already. He’s with his dad for his grandmother’s memorial service in Oceanside this weekend while I’m on a business trip in Canada. I was so sorry to miss Pat’s memorial–and just as sorry to not see Ty’s family. I will be heading to […]

Book Signing Secrets Podcast
Waxcreative, my web designers who specialize in author sites (and who create so many of my fun printwork I love to share with you all, like these fun bookmarks that I used for She’s Gone Country), have started a podcast series highlighting book signing tips from author-to-author, and my interview was published this week. As […]
The Fun of Foreign Editions
Like most my author friends, I love getting copies of my foreign editions on the mail. It’s almost like Christmas when you open up the box and discover your book, but now in a new language with a brand new cover and title. I was doubly thrilled this week when I opened a box and […]
Wed Wine Tasting & Fun
I attended another wonderful event last night here in Bellevue with moms from Cherry Crest Elementary. The women were really nice and very fun and made me feel so comfortable. I appreciate all those who have bid on an evening with me at their school or non-profit auctions and hope you know that I’m the […]
It’s May…and almost Mother’s Day!
Can’t believe it’s early May and the RWA conference in New York is just 7 weeks away! The annual conference is usually late July and I’m excited that I’ll soon be meeting up with so many of my author friends, but a little overwhelmed by all I have to do first! She’s Gone Country continues […]
Birthday Boy!
My littlest boy is two today! I’ve cleared my schedule so that Ty and I can spend the day doing fun toddler things with Mac before celebrating with a family dinner with his brothers tonight. And then tomorrow I start writing again!! But first, today will either be a zoo today or a Pacific Science […]
Happy Easter
On Friday Ty and I took some time out for ourselves and drove to Skagit Valley to see the tulips and have lunch in La Conner. All the tulips were already gone except for a few fields but we had a great time just driving and chilling in Ty’s classic Chevy truck. It was fun […]
Gladiator For a Day
I have my very own gladiator and he was amazing in battle. Two weeks ago Surfer Ty and my boys attended “Gladiator School” in Rome and Surfer Ty was pretty amazing. He’s always been a fighter–he’s something of a legend in San Diego–but watching him fence with his gladiator instructor wowed me. Ty only needed […]
Home from Rome
It was an amazing ten days in Italy and a rather hard jolt back to reality when I woke up yesterday morning at 3:00 am and couldn’t go back to sleep due to jet lag. There was so much to do but Mac wanted Mommy to himself, away from the phone and computer and stacks […]
Taking Off
Heading to airport in a few minutes and am leaving computers behind. Will try to check email now and then from an internet cafe but as this trip is all about enjoying Italy and my guys I’m not really worried about business at all. This will be a real vacation–no work, no writing, no blogging […]
