Hi Everyone,

Happy Friday. For those of you writing in NaNoWriMo, how’s it going? Are you keeping up? I’m doing my best to run with the challenge. So far so good. I keep getting halted by the need for research. Oy.

I know I’m supposed to keep going, but I’m not willing to go down any ole path just to get words on a page. I encourage you to make sure you’re going in the right direction as you blaze through your book. It will do you NO good whatsoever to start out with a suspense and end up with a sweet romance. I’m just saying…

My new book trailer is out for Dining With Joy. Check it out if you have a few minutes!

Also, next week over on my blog, I’ll be running a contest for a chance to win a KitcheAid Mixer and a cook book, plus signed copies of Dining With Joy! No, I’m not at all uncomfortable with this shameless self promotion!

Hey, I lost out on a really great opportunity yesterday. I can promo if I wanna. 😉

Okay back to work. I have another few thousand words to write. Susie will fill us in on Cancun (oh, such a hard life) when she’s back next week.
