I love Romcom. I love to laugh and make others laugh. I love drama. I have been told I write really good drama that brings tears. When I can combine the two, it is great.
Picture this: The scene- Intense heart break, mammoth pain, leading to the emotional climax of the story. My heroine gets drunk [...]

Dear Inez,
You’re one of the most prolific people I know. Jinx, John, and now this new guy? All in five months? How do you do it? I spend forever finding a new man to adore, and end up test driving about twenty before The One grabs hold. But you - you love ‘em for 100k [...]
Em and I were talking about this last night and it got me to thinking. What stands in your way of writing? I know it’s different for everyone. For instance, many people can’t write with noise or with their children. I have a computer in the living room and an autistic son. Obviously, if I [...]
I’m super excited! No, I didn’t get “THE CALL” but I did get an awesome email from a favorite author of mine. She said that she’s sending me a copy of her upcoming book. *WOOT!!*
After having a downer of a week (over all not feeling good junk) this is *happy dance* news.
Ok, you might be [...]
I’ve only read one bodice ripper ever. And that was back in high school. I can’t remember the author or the title, but I do remember LOTS of sex in it. Detailed scenes of members journeying into budding love sheaths.
From what I can remember, the plot had lots drama. A strong-willed, yet delicate heroine forced [...]
*sniff*
When I finally get to the point where I write those longed for words THE END, there is a lot emotional baggage I have to dump. I write long. My shortest mss is about 80K. So I spend a lot of time with my characters. I know them, I love them. I fall in love [...]
How important is the Romance Community to you? To me, it’s very important. I’ve found many new friends via blogs or eharlequin. I’ve found writing buddies and reading pals. People who are very much like me. I’m part of Tales because of the community. If I hadn’t found this, where would I be in my [...]
Randy Travis? Remember him? My CP said something last night that reminded me of his 80s song “Diggin’ up Bones” and it’s been in my head ever since. I seem to recall there being more to it.
For the past six days (and for the next nine) I’m “fast drafting” a new project (modified; [...]
K, I’m going to be brutally honest here. We’re involving ourselves in this exercise today because I have nothing else to write about. But here it goes. How’s your goals list looking this year. This is a show and tell. I’ll show you mine but you have to show me yours. I’m not very [...]
