The Best Laid Plans
Today I thought I’d blog about how I finished my most recent Harlequin American and shipped it off before deadline. I’ve alreay started my next book, and need to have 3 chapters done for my editor’s approval (since the book was bought on synopsis) by April first. I’m already half way there. I thought I’d…

How a cover comes to life
I’ve always said that covers are like giving birth. You don’t know what you’re going to get until it comes out. Harlequin American has been doing some fantastic covers lately (I’m still with both Kathleen and Linda–moving to Toronto and finding that hot guy on her cowboy book. I’m single–I can do that, ha ha)….

Soundtracks of our lives

Happy New Year!
It’s the new year, and I’m thrilled that 2007 is here. The previous year was a blast, but it also had a lot of roller coaster moments and I’m hoping that those are all behind me now. (PS–above that’s my cat Wiggy, short for Wiggly–her brother is Wu. She’s starting 2007 with a snooze.) As…

Happy Holidays!
I just want to wish you and yours a joyous holiday season. I’m taking a little holiday break to do some writing and some R & R, so I’ll post again once 2007 is here! Michele

Permission to say no
The holidays are upon us. I’m finishing my second to last day of teaching before winter break, which starts this Friday. I have set a goal for the holidays: giving myself permission to say no. I’m going to start by saying no to buying those extra presents that will destroy my budget. No, I’m not…
