I’m off soon to the Romance Writers of America conference in Orlando. Looking forward to meeting old friends and making new ones. I’ll have swag in the main Goody Room and some special swag for those who track me down! Special swag is limited, so be sure to catch up to me early. Here’s a photo of some of the special swag!

I’ll be gone next week, but will try and post photos daily of what’s happening at the conference. Have a great weekend!

#WriteWed All my bags are not packed! #RWA17

I love attending the RWA Conference every year. It’s such a fabulous time to network with readers, writers and so many industry professionals. It’s also a chance to catch up with old friends who I only get to see at the conference and renew those bonds.

Right now I’m in the final stages of getting ready. Last night I got part 1 of the packing done, namely, the swag for the conference attendees.

Next is some extra-special swag for those of you who want to come by and chat with me at the Sourcebooks Casablanca book signing! I’ll have some handmade bookmarks and other goodies for you there!

If you’ll be at the conference, please let me know! I’d love to get together with you! If you won’t be there, look for photos next week as I share my adventures at the conference with you!

#FunFriday & #Giveaway – Running of the Bull . . . Dogs that Is!

It’s that time of year for the running of the bulls in Pamplona. You’ve probably seen news stories about people being gored or injured as they try to outrun the large bulls on narrow Spanish streets. The practice began when cattle had to be transported from one location to another and local youths would run and dodge in front of them to show how brave they were.

But now, there is another fearful animal to dodge: the bulldogs. This commercial from Geico is hysterical! Click here if you cannot see the Geico Running of the Bulldogs commercial below.

The Yo-Yo Affect #TransformationTuesday

Almost a year ago I shared a picture of my weight loss, nearly 40 pounds off my body and on the way to losing more. Or so I thought. Today I’ve gained back all that weight and am back to trying to lose it again. This isn’t a new thing for me. I’ve gained and lost hundreds of pounds and it can be truly discouraging. Just when I think I have it figured out, I go back to carbs and BAM, the weight comes back.

This time I’m back to the same regimen as before, but with some carbs here and there since the virtually no carbs thing totally backfired once I stopped it.

If you’ve been on the same yo-yo up and down as me or if you’ve lost it and kept it off, I’d love to hear from you.

For now, the old me is back, but hopefully not for long.
