Second Day Back to School--As the Mom's Life Turns...

Okay, I said I'd be back yesterday afternoon... Word to the wise. Don't believe everything you hear ;o)

Then again, I said I'd have new prizes, and last week's winner... And, well, you can take that one to the bank ;O)


eHarlequin.com gave this pillow away at their Thursday night pajama party--I snagged one for the blog. Beside it is a signed copy of one of my faviroites, Susan Elizabeth Phillips' Ain't She Sweet? I'm dying to send these goodies to one of our commenters this week!!! I'll draw next Monday, so let us hear from you so you can be in the running!!!

As for last week's Spice...the great bag and copy of The Blonde Geisha go to.... sharon, who left a comment on the 6th. Email me your snail mail addie, and I'll send your prizes on their way. Remember, if Spice isn't your thing, I'd be happy to exchange the set for something else in my RWA treasure chest ;O)

Oh, and as a back to school, Mom-getting-her-life-back-bonus, check out what came in this morning's email...

The Perfect Daughter is a nominee in Cataromance.com's Reviewers' Choice Awards (for the first half of the year). It's the book's first award nod, so I'm thrilled, and just look at the great group of ladies I've finalled with.

Looks like they're going to have great prizes Friday, and special ones all week for those who come out and post a comment leading up to the event. So, check it out. Friday, I'll be doing a "roving reporter" interview of some kind...not sure of the detials yet, but I'll let you know... Can't wait!!!

Okay, as the mom's life turns... Honestly, I need to get to the gym (to work on some of that stuff I've avoided all summer), and then back to writing All-American Father. Maybe we need one more excerpt this week????? Moms, it was great hearing your BTS stories yesterday. Everyone keep us posted on all your news!!!
