Happy 2015!

Happy New Year! I love the beginning of a new year. A fresh start. The hope of things progressing and moving forward, hopefully in all positive ways. After an especially hard year, the beginning of a new year can feel like a new promise. I’m hanging on that this year.

What is everyone reading right now? I’ve been reading like a mad woman.

The "E" motioned News Takeover

This Sunday night (November 2nd) I will be taking over The “E” motioned News from 7-9 PM, CST. If you have any questions for me, come on over. Or if you just wanna hang out and chat about books, please come visit me! I will be doing a few giveaways and answering any questions you might have. This is my first blog takeover and I’m really looking forward to it. 

Right before that, I’ll be visiting L.B. Dunbar’s Fragrance Free Release Day Party from 6:30-7 PM, CST, so it will be a busy night. I’ll do a giveaway there too. 

Please join me! I have some fun surprises for you this November and the fun starts Sunday night…

Help me, Lucy

When the going gets tough, I hide. Hunker down and try to avoid any and everything. It’s impossible, with kids and a family, to get away with it too long, but I’ve done fairly well with my hibernation the last few months. Except for occasional trips~the Dallas and OC signings were AWESOME~I’ve managed to hibernate before winter even starts.

Today I’m forcing myself out of the fog. I’m sad about my mom. My father-in-law also passed away last week. I’m still grieving the friend who was like a brother who passed away last year. I’m just sad, period. But I’m gonna never come out of it if I don’t snap out of it soon. So here we go.

What do you do when you’re depressed? Usually I write, sing, force myself to be with my loves, exercise, take Vit D…I’m doing all but the writing right now, which makes me mighty cranky. Writing is my best medicine. So this little blogpost is me forcing myself to write. Aren’t you lucky? :) 

Pinterest!

Thank you for joining me on the blog hop! This is the final day, so let’s go celebrate on … Pinterest! :) Have had so much fun working on boards. There’s a little bit of everything over there—teasers, a few reviews (working on getting more on there), and inspiration for each book…

Here’s a little taste of what you’ll see~a few people that remind me of my characters. If you don’t like to see the characters, look away … and just keep your mental picture intact. If not, join me on a little picture album journey.

Maybe Maby:

Maby/BEFORE

Maby/AFTER (minus the colorful streaks)

Saul and Maby

Coen

Paschal

And more over on Pinterest…I’d love to see who you see as these characters too! xo
