Why I love the “Teach Me Tonight” Blog
So some woman with an opinion did a piece about the evils of Romance Novels. She got it published in the Guardian.
Here’s the smart response by the “Teach Me Tonight” crew: http://teachmetonight.blogspot.com/2007/12/bindel-piece-by-piece.html
Now if only I could make their intelligent thoughts fit on a T-shirt logo….

Back from Vegas
Man, can’t believe it’s been so long since I posted. I’m a bad, bad e-published author
Oh well, moving on.
Spent a great weekend in Vegas with my sisters. Visited the Spa at Mandalay Bay and saw Australia’s Thunder from Down Under. Can you say “YUMMY”?
Christmas was crazy and January has been very busy. We did several home renovation projects and it’s tax prep time for us. With two businesses and my writing – time goes very fast.
I’m working on Roz’s story and a spicy contemporary story targeted for another publisher. I hope Samhain will buy this next Half Moon Rising story, but no guarantees. My editor said her slots are closing fast for 2008, so I don’t expect anything out until 2009 – if she buys it.
Sometimes I feel like I’m staring down two roads with my writing career. The e-published route or the unpredictable road to the NY publishers. I know there are authors who do both, but right now I can’t devote full time to writing. Little kids, my husband’s businesses and all.
I know to make good money in the e-publishing world an authors has to do TONS of online promoting…and guess what? Not my strongest suit! The screen time writing is sometimes all I can take of the technical world in one day. I swear computers sap my inner spirit and drain my energy.
So rather than blabber on and on, I’m going to go check on my daughter who is home with the flu and write 500 words before supper.
I’m pretty certain the right road will eventually reveal itself to me. In the mean time - I write.
Hopefully next time I check in I’ll have Roz’s story finished
