Full Swing Cover!!!

Okay, I might actually be jumping the gun with this one, but I’m so excited I have to show it off. I got my cover for Full Swing *cough* buy it August 18 *cough* and I just lurrrrrve it. She’s cute and he’s buff and has a tattoo and I even got a golf ball. C’mon now, how many erotic romances have golf balls on the cover? Just mine! I’m an original, dangit!

So there!

I got pretties, I got pretties! Woohoo!

You’re being watched

So, today is a short post because I’m being observed by an intern at the library and I have to actually pull it together and teach the woman something. The crazy thing is is that she’s twice my age. For those of you not in the know, librarianship is a popular second career for people burnt out in other fields. Outranking someone way older than me is common, but still…odd.

Must run. I’ll let you know if I come off as nominally intelligent and professional later.

Motto for today: You’re Being Watched. Creepy.

Owwwie!!

Something I forgot to mention about conference. On the first day, I pulled a muscle in my foot. How? I dunno. Walking? Climbing stairs? Breathing?

Most of the time this would be a minor inconvenience. I’d just tell my staff at the library and they’d let me sit at the reference desk and kick me if I tried to get up. But at conference? What else do you do at conference besides walk around and stand in long lines? That didn’t help my foot at all, but I refused to sit in my room at RWA. No way in hell. So, now my foot is rebelling. It got worse and worse at conference and now whenever I put weight on it, it clearly says “No, bitch. Suffer.”

Sigh.

Floggings will continue until morale improves. (Of course, this would be an even funnier saying if it were posted at a BDSM club.)

Also, I’m considering this as my new website picture. What do you think?

Back to the drawing board

Now that I’m back from conference I have to buckle down and get back to work. How crappy is that? I have to finish Revenant by next month because Cobblestone wants it. I’m having a teensy bit of outliner’s block on it. I hope just writing and pantsering the hell out of it will make the story come, but I make no guarantees. I have a deadline, screw any kind of block.

Okay, maybe a leetle bit more conference goodness. I posted these over on Romance Divas yesterday, but I thought those of you who are non-Diva might wanna see too.

Here’s me reading naughty bedtime stories to the Divas. (Ignore the double chin, please)

That’s Bound by Sasha White. Go check it out, it’s seriously raunchy fun.

And here an adorable group shot of Shawn, Shelli, and of course ME! (In bed together. Divas gone wild!)
