I truly appreciate your patience

This illness has been rough.  The cough and congestion are long gone, but the bone-deep fatigue has been slow to fade.  I'm almost back to normal--as normal as I'll ever be, anyway--:) and I am eager to write and blog regularly. Our winners this week are Cheryl Gagne...

Almost Out of the Woods

I think the c-diff is under control, and I am feeling much stronger, though I'm not quite there yet.  The trip to Atlanta was a marvelous experience, and I'm so glad I went.  I'm also glad I kept a low profile and returned home in fairly good shape.  Due to crowds and...

My (Modified) Atlanta Adventure

Well, cowgirls, I managed, with a lot of help from my friends, to make it to the Romantic Times Conference after all.  Not bad for a woman virtually climbing out of a sick bed to board a plane!  I had originally intended to attend the entire conference, but...

Inspiration

As I am temporarily between projects, I am devouring new books.  Some, of course, are only new to me--you may well have read them.  Every Tuesday, I head for Audible.com Today's listen is "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho, though I am nearly through.  On the playlist...

Makin’ A List and Checkin’ It Twice

No, I'm not getting ready for Christmas in March.  🙂  I'm making a list of things I need to do to work as efficiently as possible and write good books, plus more personal things, like consistent exercise, etc.  Examples: I'll be writing "The Wager" next, and this is...

My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

It's true.  My heroes have always been cowboys, and they probably always will.  #1, of course, is my late, great dad, Grady "Skip" Lael.   This month, on March 21, my new contemporary western romance, "Forever A Hero", will be available wherever books are sold, as...

The Book is Done!

Well, mostly done.  There will be revisions, but the story is complete.  I finished yesterday afternoon, and I think I was in shock for the rest of the evening.  I made supper, took a relaxing bath, went to bed and listened to a good part of Naomi Judd's new book,...
