This wonderful little video clip was sent to me by one of my editors, who found it to be hilarious and I couldn’t agree more! I was rolling on the floor laughing my ass off (ROFLMAO for those who do not have teenage kids and wondered what that Acronym meant).

Wicked Wednesday – Apples, the Not-so-Amazings and the Amazon
Last night I picked up my Golden Apple Award for Author of the Year! It was so exciting and totally spectacular to receive this honor in front of so many friends and industry professionals. My wonderful editors, Stacy Boyd and Jessica Alvarez, were present as was Mavis Allen, another delightful editor from Harlequin. The New York City Romance Writers Chapter did an amazing job with their hospitality and the goodies they had for us to nosh on. Here’s a picture of the award I got, along with a beautiful certificate created by my friend and fellow writer, Patt Mihailoff.

A Cuba Libre
Cuba has been on my mind lately, maybe because of the Chicas. Maybe because one of my Cuban writing friends e-mailed me a week or so ago to say that the lines from Miami to NJ were buzzing about Castro’s death. (FYI — NJ has the second largest population of Cubans in the U.S.)

Silly Saturday – Only in the Romance World
Last Sunday, we spent a hot but delightful day at the Red Bank Street Fair. Here’s a shot of the intrepid writers from NJ Romance Writers who attended the fair.

The fair is from 4:00 to 5:30 and is open to the general public. For more info on the book fair, click here! Come meet us and remember — a portion of the profits go to stamp out illiteracy in NJ.

Fashion Friday – Finally gone . . .
Well, maybe not totally gone. The tents are down, most of the generators are gone and they’ve begun to disassemble the rest. This is what Bryant Park looked like this morning.
Now, I know the NYT says that most New Yorkers don’t mind losing the park for a week or two, but I for one don’t listen to a thing the NYT says anyway. Continue reading “Fashion Friday – Finally gone . . .”
Thoughtful Thursday – About Changes and Dead Sharks
“A relationship, I think, is like a shark. You know, it has to constantly move forward or it dies. I think what we have on our hands is a dead shark.” –Alvy Singer (Woody Allen) to Annie Hall (Diane Keaton)(quote courtesy of Rotten Tomatoes) Continue reading “Thoughtful Thursday – About Changes and Dead Sharks”
