BTW--The Prodigal Just Won't Quit!!!

Have been trying to post all day!!! 'Cause look at the cool photo a friend sent, of me and two-time RITA nominee, Blaze author Joanne Rock.

If you're thinking she looks like a model--bingo!!! Among other things, including being wicked smart and a professor, she was also a model in a former life. And quite possibly one of the nicest ladies I know.

So, here we are dancing at the Harlequin "Puttin' on the Ritz" party, Friday night of the RWA conference.

And here I am earlier int he week, with the Wet Noodle Posse again, at the wonderful place we went to to commit death by chocolate. Dailey's in Atlanta has some of the best deserts around. What better place to take the most tallented group of writers I've ever been a part of???

The reviews are still pouring in for The Prodigal...check out this blog, from one of the best reviewers around. Someone else nabbed my book for the site she works for, but she couldn't help but take a peak herself. Thanks Barb!!!

Wanted to also point everyone to a Super Heroine article I've done for the Wet Noodle posse site. They asked me to cover this wonderful woman, and learning more about her was an amazing experience:

Seems like back-to-school shopping was a great blog diversion for everyone...I'm really thinking we need to plan a shopping day around my next reader event ;O) Anyone coming to the GRW Reader Luncheon this fall?? Sherry Kenyon will be here, ready to schmooze, and there's lots of great shopping in the area!!!

What does everyone think about their college alumni rag? I've been interviewed for mine (Tech Topics--yes, I went to Ga. Tech--feel free to giggle at the odd choice of careers I've backed into). It was a cool exeprience, and the reporter was very enthusiastic, but I'm still a little stunned that they'd think what I'm doing is feature-worthy. It's not exactly rocket science, which they teach there, BTW.

Tell us about your last reunion, or your last homecoming whatever, high school or college. Reliving my recent past was a hoot!! So many great memories I hadn't fallen back into in years. Would you go back? Do it all again?

College totally changed my life, in a lot of amazing ways. But Tech was hard. I'd like to think I'd do it even better if I went back, but I'm in no hurry. I'm digging the whole, been there, kicked it's ass, spank me I'm done thing too much to want to do it all again just yet.

BTW, I wrote the first chapter of my paranormal idea tonight...what a cool story...wonder if anyone else will ever get the chance to think so...
