Happy New Year! |
Hope all of you had a marvelous holiday season
and are ready to get 2008 off to a great start. I was fortunate enough to see
all of my family sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I went hiking with
my two grandsons in Wisconsin Dells during their Thanksgiving break and went to
New York with my daughter during December for some shopping and shows. I also
visited with my editor while in New York and then went to Shreveport Christmas
Eve to visit all my sisters and a couple of my nieces. There was lots of talk
and laughter. And lots of food, of course. Im
very excited about the books I have coming out during 2008.
Well
continue with the stories of the Four Brothers of Colts Run Cross with Point Blank
Protector in February and with Loaded in June. Then in November, well return
to Jacks Bluff Ranch for Miracle at Colts Run Cross. This is a heartwarming
story that reinforces all the love and closeness of the wonderful Collingsworth
family. Ill also be researching my next series.
I wont give the title away, but I will say it will be an action-packed and
very sensual and romantic series of three books with the most heroic Texans you
can imagine.
As you can see, Ill be very busy this year with
my writing activities, but Ill be certain to find
time for some of my other favorite activities as well.
Im hoping to improve my golf game, read lots of
books, enjoy my family and my husband and I plan to
do some traveling. Hopefully well be visiting
the northwest after the RWA conference in July and Ill
have to make several trips to the Chicago area to visit
my grandsons and to the beach at Gulf Shores, Alabama.
And Ill be attending and speaking at several conferences
both in Texas and across the United States. Who knows,
maybe well run into each other somewhere along
the way.
Here is a picture of my daughter and me when we were enjoying the Christmas holidays. And
a photo of my grandsons, the light of my life. |
