New…

I need to spread my wings this year. Learn to enjoy what’s new. Not look back at the old that wants to keep pressing down on me. This week, come back daily to share in the fun as I relish the ways three months of hard work are finally paying off, because I have…

A NEW Spring to enjoy…

A NEW novel to revise…and it’s already a “Guaranteed Read” from Dorchester–learn more about this amazing publishing program I’m lucky enough to have been chosen for, and look for Secret Legacy in stores in November!

A NEW Harlequin Superromance release on shelves 4/10…and there’s already only one left on Amazon, so don’t miss your chance to pick on up on B&N or in your local bookstore/section of choice. Cool!

New contests to offer…win $20 Amazon Gift Certificates here AND here  (AND out here the week of the 10th, when I launch my blog release contest for everyone who visits and comments the rest of the month).

New travels to share…from the two weeks in March that saved my sanity and got me back to one (where I could relax into Secret Legacy and make it sing for you).

Of course I have more pictures to share than just this one with cover model and friend Bill Freda, but what a lovely place to start, right ;o) All week, I’ll be uploading pics to the blog so you can see why I’m feeling so amazing and new this Spring morning, while my teenager is upstairs sleeping ’til noon because it’s Spring Break, and my body’s luxuriously tired from hiking all day yesterday on a nearby mountain and my mind is dreaming up dream things to write so you can feel this new, too…

(NOTE: Many of these pics and stories were posted from the road last month on my Facebook feed and Twitter profile, where I do more frequent updates. Part of my new and improved “revised” year is to put content up when it’s happening, and social media seems to be the way to go for that for me. So, if you want to see the news while it’s happening, friend me on Facebook or join the 1,800+ strong (wow, really???) already following me on Twitter!)

To open this week’s picture show with more of what I KNOW you love most–NEW HUNKY GUY Photos!!!

I committed to several teaching gigs scheduled for early this year, BEFORE I learned I’d be having January surgery. It wasn’t easy to get packed up and hit the road for nearly two weeks, but lots of friends were there to make the experience amazing and liberating rather than just exhausting.

When cover model friend Bill Freda learned I’d be teaching at an event near him, he hopped over the night of the book signing to give me a hug and make me smile, and to wow the crowds as usual:

Of course, I taught while I was there, too, with my agent Michelle Grajkowski, and I spoke on a Romance panel with fab authors Virginia Kantra and Tara Nina. See–I was working. Really I was!

    How wonderful and since you are writing this in April it is to be hoped you have recovered from your surgery.
    Be well

  2. Patricia Barraclough says:

    Hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend.
    Take good care of yourself and keep on the recovery path.
    I’ve been waiting THE FIREFIGHTER’S SECRET BABY since reading the excerpt last year.
    Have a great week.

    So glad that you seem to have recovered well from your surgery! Stay
    on that “good recovery pathway”!

    It’s great to see that Firefighter’s Secret Baby is on it’s way onto the shelves! I’ve got to get out this week for a copy!!

    I need to rejuvenate too; having retired this winter and enjoying the wintery days inside; time to get moving! your book sounds great:)

  5. Minna says:

    I’m looking forward to reading this book!

  6. Beth Re says:

    I am also looking forward to reading the new book!

  7. Joyce says:

    Looking forward to reading your latest. I truly enjoyed Dark Legacy and I am looking forward to Secret Legacy.

    Good thing I’m married and very much in love… that cover model is so yummy… it’s nice to know that when I look at the cover of the book (after I eventually buy it) that it is based on a real person). The cover of a book os a big draw to me when buying any book. I do love a strong man with a soft heart for a baby. : )

  9. Sunnymay says:

    Take what time you can recuperating and by all means, don’t even think about lifting anything heavier than the Dr. orders. Get better fast.

  10. Linda Henderson says:

    I really enjoyed Dark Legacy, can’t wait to read the next.

    Hope you’re taking it easy and on the road to recovery. Really nice cover – there’s something about a strong hero tenderly cradling a baby in their arms, showing a vulnerability.
