About This Author
I am a 40 year old married mother of two teenage boys. I live for writing, especially romance. Love the happily ever after scenerio. The best thing about writing for me is the ability to lose yourself in your work, and feel as if you've accomplished something great. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters.
Poisoned Purple Pen
New siggie



She sat down at her old wooden desk, pen at the ready. Her thoughts raced. What shall I write today? Tilting her head to the side, a small smile tugged at the corner of her mouth before enveloping her delicate face. The purple ink began to fill the once blank sheet, each stroke a labor of pure joy as the words flowed from her mind, her heart, her very soul.

Lost in a haze of purple she stands alone

My Dreams...

to write of romance and endless love
to love without boundaries
to learn from past mistakes
to laugh with all my heart
to be the woman I am meant to be


Inspiration



TODAY...

I will reach for the stars

Will not give up

Will give all that I have

Dare to dream the impossible dream

For anything in this life is possible


Daughter of Desire

Wow, it's been 5 1/2 years since I wrote in my blog. That is a very long time.

I just spent July battling it out for the Throne in "Game of Thrones"  Open in new Window. by Creeper Of The Realm Author Icon . That was quite an intense ride, but I had a lot of fun. Win or lose, it is worth it. I made some new friends, that is the ultimate bonus as far as I'm concerned.

Team Greyjoy did not disappoint, and I am so grateful for my team that stepped in and worked out to complete in review battles and did a really good job of placing in some of the writing competitions.

Thanks to all of you who joined me in this endeavor. I cannot thank you all enough. So here's a shout out to all who gave their time in the month of July to take on this challenge with me. No matter how big or small your contribution was, it do appreciate it.



Now I'm back to working on my Endurance Series. A Perfect Fit, and Megan's Man are now published! That makes me happy. Bride 2 Be is halfway to completion, and with any luck, I'll have it finished by the end of September. At least that's the reasonable goal I've set for myself.

This month I joined "I Write in August-September-October"  Open in new Window. by NaNoNette Author Icon and "I Write Romantic in Winter"  Open in new Window. by NaNoNette Author Icon . All day I've been searching for contests to write for. I'm kind of bummed I haven't had any luck just yet. But, I'm hoping by tomorrow some contests that I enjoy will update and post their August Prompts.

And I really need to jump back into the "Cross Timbers Groups"  Open in new Window. by Carol Saint Ann Author Icon . I always get great help when I'm working on one of my novels, and this will be good for me. I can use the interaction and reading other stories to help get my own creativity flowing.

Guess that's my little update for now.

~Sweet dreams of *Heart* and all things romantic!
