My Midweek Mayhem, Release Party Pix and Awesome Witch Way to Turn Reviews!!


Hi y'all! My Midweek Mayhem is actually posting mid-week?! *gasps* I know, right? LOL
 




Working it out…
Hearing voices…
  • Am pluggin' away on book #2 in the Witch Way series. Current word count is a little over 52,000 words!
  • Here's a little teaser from book #2 I'm super happy with (as always, no spoilers to book #1 or #2). Ah yes, Breena still has the boys pining after her. Evil girl! Bwahaha. Hm...which hot boy's POV is this? Myles or Orin? Of course, the tenacious grin that creased her dimples when she smiled took him to heights of desperation. He’d do anything to be the reason for joy on her face. Anything.
Waiting game…

  • On week #10 of waiting to hear back from a lovely agent who is reading Running From Shadows.*continues to keep fingers and toes crossed and keeps querying*
  • On week #2 of waiting to hear back from the two agents and editor from the RWA conference. *also continues to keep all possible body parts crossed*
Getting personal...

My Witch Way to Turn book release party!!! It was so awesome! The venue was the beautiful Cove Tavern in Williamsburg, Virginia.





The cake!!




A big shout out to my friend Clara for organizing it. Also, many thanks to my dear friend Kat for making an absolutely gorgeous cake. 


 I know there were a lot of peeps who wanted to be there but couldn't, so I've posted a couple pix for your enjoyment ;) Missed you!!


Lovely Friends :)

  •  Creatures of the Moon by Kristine Overbrook! Fantastic read. I've been savoring it. The past couple of days have been intense at City Hall. So curling up with my Kindle has been my saving grace :)

Mikey and I had a beautiful outdoor wedding at a botanical garden in Belmont, North Carolina followed by an indoor reception with a jazz band. Ah, memories...
