NOW WHAT?<p> I'm thrilled to announce my newest book, I WROTE A BOOK. NOW WHAT? just released. It has already made the Top 100 Bestseller's List on Amazon in the Authorship category, and I'm beyond excited with early, stellar reviews. For years, I've talked about writing this book, but I'm glad I waited because I learn something new seemingly every week! If you're a new or aspiring author, this nonfiction book about writing, publishing, and marketing will guide you through the process. And it's funny. You'll find what--or who--made me break out in hives when I pitched my debut novel.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn8U1s9OqVHuqdQqhU8UWZE8ICQAWHuUKvU4sKQ97oHImdG3j2S3goTR7SddiPNyuXzE2NtPwPsQWpZ5yXKYqfahjC0DeAKPoWaTBqq53muhaL67zaOjNKIKLPVnrPc7HszVOl_RnjavPS/s2048/I+Wrote+A+Book+Now+What+1600x2400.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1365" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn8U1s9OqVHuqdQqhU8UWZE8ICQAWHuUKvU4sKQ97oHImdG3j2S3goTR7SddiPNyuXzE2NtPwPsQWpZ5yXKYqfahjC0DeAKPoWaTBqq53muhaL67zaOjNKIKLPVnrPc7HszVOl_RnjavPS/w266-h400/I+Wrote+A+Book+Now+What+1600x2400.JPG" width="266" /></a></div><br /><p>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New";">After a few weeks in disarray and unable to find my humorous novel-writing muse during the scary Coronavirus pandemic, I came up with a unique idea. I'm thrilled to announce I created THE QUARANTINE COOKBOOK and am donating the proceeds to charity.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New";">Nearly 200 easy, delicious recipes will provide a much-needed
distraction while sheltering in place—and your family will thank you! Included
are my favorite five-ingredient recipes, plus plenty of comfort food,
meatless meals, appetizers, salads, sides, soups, and desserts.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New";">And when you don’t
feel like cooking, I included a generous dollop of almost 60 Non-Stir
Crazy Activities, a dash of unique Six-Word Memoirs on Quarantine Life,
and a pinch of hilarious food quotes that are sure to bring a smile during
these trying times.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New";">Included are many of my favorite recipes including Quarantine
Balls, Bacon Asparagus Quiche, Stuffed Pasta Shells, French Dip Sandwiches,
Asian Salmon, Rosemary Pork Chops, Parmesan Chicken, Strawberry Yogurt Cake,
Brownie Pie, and Chocolate-Covered Cashew Clusters, to name a few.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New";">Easy on the
pantry—and budget—these family favorite recipes using common ingredients are
sure to become yours too. Since we’re homebound, let’s cook! Stay healthy, and
happy eating.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New";">During the crisis,
proceeds will benefit: Tunnel2Towers.org which is providing housing for fallen
COVID-19 healthcare workers and first responders with young children. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New";">Here's the Amazon link for both the eBook and paperback. This would make a great Mother's Day gift, birthday gift, wedding gift, and memorable cookbook for your own collection. </span></div>

In my newest novel, COWBOYS AT COCONUTS, which releases in December, I got to write about cowboys! Yee-haw!<br />
<br />
Creating cowboy characters was a first for me
and I had great fun developing my western characters. I got to use terms
like, “Howdy, ma’am” and “over yonder.” Don’t get me wrong. My cowboys
aren’t cliche, but country boys and farm hands really do use those
terms. And many drop their g’s. How would I know? I dated a cowboy from
Oklahoma over twenty years ago, plus my dad grew up (and still lives on)
a Missouri farm.<br />
<br />
Most cowboys tip their hats, have dusty boots, tight jeans, oval belt
buckles, and occasionally drive ancient pickups. They’re always tan,
mannerly, and are hard-working guys. I had so much fun I’ve got to keep them around in my next book, too!<br />
<br />
If you've read my Coconuts series, you know I have cops, hippies, brides, bankers, a high
school counselor, and a wedding planner. And now...cowboys complete with country music, ponds, country roads, cows,
horses, hay bales, tire swings, diners, honky-tonks, and much more.<br />
<br />
My main characters and their supporting cast will return, of course.
BFFs Suzy, Alex, and Hope are, as usual, in the midst of constant chaos including a trip to Nashville, an undisclosed <i>Eat, Drink, Chill</i>
trip for Alex, and all kinds of surprises for Suzy, the almost-forty
pregnant wedding planner. After all, the New York socialite can’t have all of the fun.<br />
<br />
Here's my blurb:<br />
<br />
<i><b>"Kiss me. I'll explain later."</b></i><br />
<i><b>Grinning, the cowboy tipped his hat. "Yes, ma'am."</b></i><br />
<br />
Two worlds collide when a wealthy New York socialite plants a kiss on
an unsuspecting cowboy. His ancient pickup is a far cry from her
personal limo and Cheri Van Buren’s more accustomed to the Big Apple
than Soggy Bottoms, his farm. Still, the caterer to the stars
surprisingly adores the simple life—until keeping her notoriety, plus a
scandalous secret, becomes a full-time job.<br />
<br />
Blunt bank
marketer Alex takes an undisclosed hiatus to go on a self-imposed <i>Eat, Drink, Chill</i> trip to decide once
and for all if she’s going to end her disastrous relationship with a sexy cop.
When someone begins to make the decision easy, a phone call changes everything.<br />
<br />
Determined to
put the pieces together after her adopted parents’ train-accident-turned-soap-opera
nightmare, Hope heads to Nashville with her amnesia-laden hippie dad. Will he
have a breakthrough or is it too late?<br />
<br />
Pregnant with twins at nearly forty, Suzy juggles her wedding
business while enduring morning sickness and embarrassing OB/GYN visits.
The last thing she needs is unsettling news from her son, not to
mention a shocker by her teen stepdaughter. <br />
<br />
Maybe that old adage about opposites attracting is true. Maybe not.
One thing’s for certain. A cocktail at Coconuts is always in order. <br />
<br />
RELEASE DATE: December 4, 2019<br />
<br />
NOTE: Even though this is the fourth book in my Coconuts series, all
may be read as a standalone, but I wouldn’t recommend reading them out
of order if you plan to read more than one!<br />
<br />
THURSDAYS AT COCONUTS (Book 1)<br />
CHAOS AT COCONUTS (Book 2)<br />
BABIES AT COCONUTS (Book 3)<br />
COWBOYS AT COCONUTS (Book 4)<br />
<br />
Happily, there will be two more novels in this series in 2020!<br />
<br />
I'd love to know how you feel about cowboys. Happy reading!Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16685726789687443442noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5744229911868864730.post-68267498099237170262019-07-08T09:39:00.000-05:002019-07-08T09:52:36.332-05:00Top Twenty Reasons to Visit Coconuts<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

VISIT COCONUTS</span></b></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<ol>
<li>To overhear the juicy gossip of long-time best
friends Suzy, Alex, and Hope, who go to Coconuts weekly (or more if there’s an
emergency, which is often!)</li>
<li>Getting a glimpse of the gorgeous, wealthy New
York socialite, Cheri Van Buren, and ask if you can borrow her incredible designer
clothes or shoes.</li>
<li>Having the cute flip-flop wearing server, Gus,
who always knows what cocktail everyone wants for Happy Hour, serve your
favorite drink—or possibly serve him!</li>
<li>Hoping to be handcuffed by sexy, bad-boy cop Lt.
Tony Montgomery. He may be a rascal at times, but he sure is sexy. Those arctic
blue eyes…</li>
<li>Adding your initials (or painting something
tropical) on the floor-to-ceiling beach mural.</li>
<li>To ask hunky, dark-sunglass-wearing Gage for a
ride in his limo and hoping he remembers the chilled champagne!</li>
<li>Showing Alex she isn’t alone with her OCD
tendencies by tying a paper straw holder into a knot in solidarity—and handing
her some anti-bacterial gel after you touch her hand.</li>
<li>Hugging Suzy for all she has been through.</li>
<li>Ditto for Alex.</li>
<li>Double ditto for Hope.</li>
<li>Giving Alex advice on whether she should ditch
the cop once and for all and pursue Gage, Cheri’s limo driver.</li>
<li>Giving Suzy advice on how to handle her surly
teen stepdaughter, Izzy.</li>
<li>To discuss wedding themes with Suzy and hire her
company, Weddings by Suzanne, for a wedding.</li>
<li>To share (or gather) Italian recipes with
Fernando’s mom, Mama Gia, but scooting away before you offend her and she
thumps you on the head!</li>
<li>Commiserating with Hope for everything she’s
gone through with her hippie parents and telling her that her frizzy hair is
beautiful and to stop worrying about her weight!</li>
<li>To see newlyweds Jon and Fernando and hope
Fernando teaches you to dance the salsa.</li>
<li>Requesting the infamous zebra print menu and
scouring it to order every item on the menu—or at least the crab cakes or
truffle popcorn.</li>
<li>Hoping to catch a glimpse of either Nikki,
Tony’s hateful, spiteful ex, OR Hannah, Alex’s bank marketing intern who is
gunning for her job, and possibly trip them or spit in their drink. Trust me,
they deserve it!</li>
<li>To find out about the unique, hilarious cocktail
the New York socialite insists the women drink.</li>
<li>To tell the women you admire their unbreakable
bonds of friendship and wish you had friends like them. Who knows? Maybe
they’ll invite you to join them at their high-top table at Coconuts!</li>

I'm thrilled to announce the third book in my Coconuts series, BABIES AT COCONUTS, is now available for pre-order on Amazon! I had a blast writing this book, which is my most multi-cultural, head-butting yet, and there's even a trip to Paris, as well as a baby shocker!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The first two books in my series, THURSDAYS AT COCONUTS and CHAOS AT COCONUTS (Book 2) are romantic women's fiction. However, BABIES AT COCONUTS turned out to be a romantic comedy. Remember, I'm a pantser and my characters take over!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I adore the expressive cover and especially the violet hue and Bird of Paradise flowers. Both have special meaning in my book. You'll have to read it to find out why! Special thanks to my cover designer.</span><br />

They asked me to write "The Last Word," which is a standing advice-type feature in their bi-monthly literary magazine.<br />
<br />
I pondered what to write, and as I watched my favorite reality television show, The Voice, it hit me! Read a portion of the article below to see what I mean. Here's my article in a nutshell: Emmy-winning coaches on the show tell singers to "find their lane." Of course, they mean country, rock, blues, gospel, hip hop, or rap. I realized this advice could easily apply to writers because readers expect us to stay in our lane, otherwise, they would get whiplash if we penned a heart-wrenching contemporary romance only to follow that with a western, and the next year, wrote a time travel sci fi for good measure.<br />
<br />
The other similarity between The Voice and writers is the very premise of the show. Coaches do not see the singers <i>until</i> they've been selected. Much like writers who toil away in their offices or at Starbucks and submit their work to agents and editors online (behind the cloak of their laptop.) Our submissions are selected based upon the quality of our <i>work</i>--not on our appearance, which is a lot like The Voice, right? <br />
<br />
This was a fun piece to write. I hope you enjoy it.<br />

<br />
I'm thrilled to tell you about my new release, CHAOS AT COCONUTS, which is book 2 in my Coconuts series. Book 1, as most of you know, was double award-winning THURSDAYS AT COCONUTS. Both are romantic women's fiction with plenty of humor and suspense.<br />
<br />
Without further ado, here's my cover and an Amazon pre-order link. I'd greatly appreciate pre-orders. My release date is April 11.<br />
<br />
I think you'll enjoy catching up with Suzy, Alex, and Hope again, as well as meet the wealthy socialite, Cheri Van Buren. I had great fun creating havoc--and satisfaction--for them. *evil author laugh*<br />

I thoroughly enjoyed participating in the 2017 Holly Jolly Chick Lit Hop with over 60 authors and tons of readers. We had creative holiday contests daily, each author awarded individual prizes, and we collectively contributed to three $100 Amazon gift cards, just in time for Christmas shopping! This was a great way to meet new readers and authors. What a fun, festive win-win.<br />

First of all, it's a Christmas novella (right at 25,000 words).
Secondly, I adore the cover. Once you see it, you'll immediately
understand the sweet, heartwarming tone of my story. Ready?
Drum roll, please...<br />

<br />
See what I mean? Too cute for words. I can say that since I'm not the designer. However, I did find the scrawny tree and angel while perusing photo sites and the tree is exactly how I pictured it. One of my characters, Betsy, who is in kindergarten, picked it out. :) It's just slightly bigger and prettier than Charlie Brown's Christmas tree, but not by much.<br />
<br />
I'll share my blurb below but wanted to tell you how this madcap, hard-core writing adventure began. After I wrote, edited, and submitted my Coconuts Book 2 (it was accepted and I got a contract, by the way, which I'll discuss in another post), I plodded around the house wondering if I should immediately dive into Coconuts Book 3 or try my hand at writing a novella with entirely different characters for a change of pace. Since I love holiday books and movies, you know what I decided.<br />
<br />
While reviewing several of my short stories and half-novels on my computer, I discovered 6,100 words for a Christmas tale I had completely forgotten about writing. As I read it, I fell in love with the characters and the story. I knew I had to finish it--and fast since it was already October! For any chance of a holiday release, I also knew I'd have to indie publish, another first for me. I'm very happy with my publisher, Soul Mate Publishing, but let's face it, they represent over 300 authors who are all vying for their attention, have their own tight schedules, and cover art needs. There wasn't any way I could get this story out before fall of 2018 if I traditionally published, so I jumped in with both feet, rolled up my sleeves, and went to work on figuring out the indie side of the publishing business.<br />
<br />
I researched cover artists and checked on their timelines. I sought out beta readers and editors who could turn the work around in a few days. Then, I hunched over my computer and pulled several 9-11 hour days over three weeks. By focusing solely on this story, eating out a lot, skipping housework, and a few(!) showers, I managed to add 18,100 words in three weeks! That's a record for me. I can't say I'd do that again because my back and wrists hurt, plus my eyes looked like a road map. I ended up penning THE END while wearing my trusty wrist braces. Don't worry. I'm fine now but it was a grueling schedule.<br />
<br />
Thanks to my cover designer and beta readers, the whole project was finished and released on schedule on November 1 while I was in California visiting my daughter and grandson. I had tech issues on release day, talked to eight Amazon representatives, and got so worked up my daughter had to take the phone. Whew! I'm glad that's behind me. Now, I have to market it. I'll be having several contests in November and December, as well as a launch party in December. More about all of that later.<br />
<br />
As promised, here's the blurb for MIRACLE ON AISLE TWO:<br />

My novella is available as an eBook and also in paperback. I'd love to hear if you enjoy Christmas stories or have written under extremely tight deadlines. Happy reading!<br />

Since receiving runner up in the "Favorite contemporary" category for SLEEPING WITH ELVIS, I've attended two major conferences and just realized I hadn't updated my blog.<br />
<br />
A big thank you to UnCaged Book Reviews for nominating SLEEPING WITH ELVIS based on reviews and to the readers who voted for me. It was a huge honor to be named runner up. See my pretty badge?<br />
<br />
Have you read SLEEPING WITH ELVIS? It's set on charming, secluded Key Lime Island and my hero is an Elvis impersonator who happens to have a cursing parrot (with impeccable timing!) I always infuse plenty of humor and suspense, along with romance, of course!<br />
<br />
<br />
As background, my mother loved the King and so did I. I've been to Graceland twice and even saw Elvis perform when I was a teen. It was a thrill. Sadly, he died two months later. I've also watched several Elvis impersonators/tribute artists. While watching one perform in Florida, I had a light bulb moment and SLEEPING WITH ELVIS was born.<br />
<br />
Below are my cover, tagline, and Amazon buy link. Thank you for your support! <br />

<i>NOTE: Today's blog post is brought to you by my newest hero, <b>Ty Townsend</b>, in honor of Book Boyfriend Blog Hop week. Read below about how you can make him the official book boyfriend. Take it away, Ty.</i><br />
<br />
Hello and welcome, everyone! My name is <b>Ty Townsend</b> and I have a unique profession. I'm an Elvis impersonator! Everyone always told me I look like the legend himself, and since I love to sing, I chose a career where I could honor his legacy. I perform in Branson and Vegas and hope you'll attend one of my shows. Between gigs (like now) I chill on my favorite, secluded beach, Key Lime Island. In fact, I just got out of the water. Anyone have a towel?<br />
<br />

Since I'm campaigning for Best Book Boyfriend, may I humbly suggest ten reasons why you should vote for me:<br />
<br />
1) I have a sexy black leather costume just like Elvis. I'll wear it if you want. <br />
2) I'll sing any Elvis song you like. What's your favorite?<br />
3) I love to play the guitar. Want a lesson?<br />
4) My crazy pet is a parrot. Her name is Saylor and she curses a lot. "Vote for Ty, dammit." (Sorry, I can't control what comes out of her mouth. It can be embarrassing, especially in certain situations if you know what I mean.) <br />
5) Key Lime Island is a private beach that's only accessible by boat or helicopter. In other words, it's very private. Want to go for a long walk on the beach? <br />
6) Are you thirsty? I make a mean key lime martini? *heads to the kitchen*<br />
7) Can you sing? We can perform a duet at The Tipsy Turtle. Come on. It'll be fun.<br />
8) Maybe you'd prefer a boating adventure. I'll rent a speed boat from the Key Lime Marina. Let's go.<br />
9) *Plucks a Hibiscus blossom* You need this behind your ear. Purple looks great on you.<br />
10) Remember, please vote for <b>TY TOWNSEND</b>. Thank you. Thank you very much.<br />

I adore writing kidlit. They're fun, challenging, and a refreshing change in between my novel writing. Plus, I can't think of anything more important than encouraging little ones to read.<br />
<br />
As a side note, I drafted this book over two years ago, but had to wait until my daughter had her first child (and would give me his name!) Ethan is the main character who gets magical powers from eating food that makes him pucker. The other character is Luke, Ethan's cousin, who is also our grandson and gets to fly and do crazy stunts in the air. I actually sent photos of both boys to the illustrator and asked him to "age" them. He wasn't thrilled about using real people as characters, but in the end, he did a great job of capturing both boys' likenesses.<br />
<br />
Here's the cover:<br />

</o:OfficeDocumentSettings>
</xml><![endif]--><b><i><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;">Ethan loves lemon
cookies, lemon cupcakes, and even slices of lemons. But he doesn’t realize he
receives magical powers from food that makes him pucker. When his best friend,
Luke, mentions he wishes he could fly, Ethan—having just eaten lemons—waves his
arms, and whoosh, Luke flies overhead like a bird. Much to his surprise, a
wide-eyed Ethan watches Luke glide above the swing set, hover over their
special tree house, and make figure eights in the sky. After the initial fun
and excitement, Ethan begins to worry. How will he get his friend back on the
ground? Will Ethan regain his super powers or will Luke fly in the sky forever? Ages 3-7.</span></i></b><br />

The cover captures the wonder my main character, Pepper, feels as she
enjoys her first taste of an exciting beach vacation--a far cry from her shabby trailer in Arkansas. But she had
better enjoy the serenity now because, well, you’ll just have to read
it and find out!<br />
<br />
An enticing novel plot isn’t anything without a diverse cast of
characters to keep readers turning the pages. It takes a while for
characters to develop fully (maybe ten edits will do it!) After much
work and a gazillion tweaks, I am in LOVE with my characters! Well, not
Derek. He’s a jerk but we have to have a villain to cause mayhem, right?
Plus, they're fun to create.<br />
<br />
I’ve fallen for my main character, Ty, the Elvis impersonator, but also
have a sweet spot for the elderly veteran, George. Ty makes me swoon
and George makes me cry. And the cursing parrot? Come on. Now, I want to
get one! Meet them:<br />
<br />
Pepper – She lives with her crappy boyfriend in as shabby trailer in
Nowhere, Arkansas. They saved all year for a fabulous vacation to Key
Lime Island but she just lost her job as a daycare worker. She’s going
anyway. Money problems, fears of flying, and boating be damned.<br />
<br />
Derek – Pepper’s nasty, cheating, controlling boyfriend. Little does
he know she plans to break up with him the second the vacation is over.
But he doesn’t go away easily–Not. At. All.<br />
<br />
Ty Townsend – A drop-dead gorgeous Elvis impersonator who has
unplugged on Key Lime Island to escape social media trolls after he
messed up the King’s lyrics (twice!) He rethinks his unique profession
and enjoys downtime, until he discovers a woman lost in more ways than
one.<br />
<br />
Saylor – Ty’s cursing African Grey parrot who is entertaining, albeit with a serious potty mouth (thus, her name!)<br />
<br />
Captain Dan – The leathered, tough-talking, big-bellied captain of their charter, <em>Reel Time.</em><br />
<br />
Mia – The captain’s efficient, lovely first mate for the excursion to Key Lime island.<br />
<br />
Frank – Ty’s gold-chain-wearing, no-nonsense manager who wants his entertainer back on the stage.<br />
<br />
George – A retired psychiatrist and Air Force Veteran who has sadness of his own but becomes Pepper’s hero.<br />
<br />
Stephanie Silk – A porn star who creates havoc.<br />
<br />
Of course, there are many more secondary characters who play
interesting roles but the characters listed above are my main cast. When
I write, I envision an actual play or movie in an effort to bring my
characters to life.<br />

For now, I’m deep into final edits. Stay tuned for a launch party in mid-August! Back to the hamster cage… Elvis has
left the blog.<img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley emoji" draggable="false" height="16" src="https://s1.wp.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/wpcom-smileys/simple-smile.svg" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" width="16" />Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16685726789687443442noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5744229911868864730.post-63515560437715664472016-06-29T17:35:00.003-05:002016-06-29T17:51:46.731-05:00Where to Begin?This is downright embarrassing. I haven't updated my blog since last fall. <i>FALL</i>. I'm surprised I remember how. What in the world have I been doing? A LOT.<br />
<br />
Since I can't possibly write about every single item that has occurred, let me give you a quick rundown:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>My daughter and son-in-law had their first child--a boy--right before Thanksgiving. Joy!! This, of course, entailed many trips to L.A. beforehand and my throwing a baby shower. Maybe that's why I was so busy.</li>
<li>My novelette, SANTA BABY, appeared in an eight-author Christmas anthology, SIZZLE IN THE SNOW. </li>
<li>I went to Florida and had three book signings in Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and Sanibel. Great fun. I love Floridians. They're so welcoming and THURSDAYS AT COCONUTS is a great fit for the Sunshine State.</li>
<li>I penned my newest novel, SLEEPING WITH ELVIS over the past several months. More about that in another post. I am a HUGE Elvis fan. I had an epiphany about a plot including an Elvis impersonator and my novel was born. I was busy all winter and spring writing this novel and will share details soon. I promise!</li>
<li>I received "Best Debut Author" from BTS Books in April at TNEE (The Novel Experience Event) in Atlanta. I was bowled over. This was after six months receiving a 2015 RONE AWARD at the InD'Scribe Conference in Palm Springs. Sigh. Pinch me! Seriously, I could not be more humbled or happy to see my work recognized.</li>
<li>I've been writing like crazy on my Coconuts sequel. I know. I know. I should have had it out by now. The good news is I have enough ideas for at least two more books! Yippee. More of Hope, Suzy, and Alex--as well as several new characters.</li>
<li>We had a big family vacation the first week of June. There were 21 of us. Try getting a table for that size group every night for dinner! It's a challenge.</li>
<li>Now, I'm FINALLY updating my website. I'm only three books behind. Good grief.</li>
</ul>
I'm sure there's more to add, but I have to get back to updating my site. I wish the summer would slow down but I"m looking at edits the entire month of July for SLEEPING WITH ELVIS before it releases on August 10! Stay tuned for details about a launch party, the cover, blurb, excerpts, swag, and more.<br />
<br />
I hope you've had a wonderful time since we last chatted in October. I'll do better with my blogging. :)Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16685726789687443442noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5744229911868864730.post-69645815600141513392015-10-20T15:01:00.002-05:002015-10-20T15:01:25.075-05:00Holiday Newsletter from Sizzle In The Snow Authors<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm way behind on posting the Sizzle In The Snow newsletter due to my recent travels to California (twice). All eight authors are submitting wonderful holiday songs, recipes, memories, DIY projects, and more. Since the posts are lengthy and I'm attempting to catch up, I'll just share a portion of the last two newsletters. Enjoy the excerpts, Christmas songs, recipes, and memories. Follow us on Twitter at #sizzleinthesnow and watch for our eight-author Facebook Launch party in November!<br />

<span lang="EN-CA" style="line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Clara lay flat on her
back, dead silent. A rock dug into her shoulder and she fought the urge to
wiggle out of the way. The dirt beneath her was dry and chilly while a small
pool of sweat puddled between her breasts. The stranger she’d met only a half
hour earlier lay directly on top of her, propped up on his elbows on either
side of her head, covering her body head to toe in a protective shield. Her
hands were pinned between their chests and, no matter how hard she tried to
still them, trembled.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span lang="EN-CA" style="line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">He kept as much of his
weight off her as he could, but their bodies still clung to one another. He
lowered his head an inch and whispered, “Relax.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span lang="EN-CA" style="line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Clara nodded. “What did
you say your name was?” she whispered back. He’d never told her his name, just
grabbed her from the store and ran like hell.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span lang="EN-CA" style="line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">“Shhh.” His breath in her
ear sent shivers down the side of her neck, and if they weren’t being chased by
a couple of thugs with guns, she’d take time to enjoy the feeling.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span lang="EN-CA" style="line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">She took a slow, deep
breath but it forced their bodies tighter together, and dear God, she enjoyed
it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Rum or Bourbon Balls – Great For Christmas!<br />
<br />
1 Cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips<br />
<br />
1/2 Cup White Sugar<br />
<br />
3 Tablespoons Corn Syrup<br />
<br />
1/2 Cup Rum <strong>OR </strong>Bourbon<br />
<br />
2 ½ Cups Crushed Vanilla Wafers<br />
<br />
1 Cup Chopped Walnuts (optional)<br />
<br />
1/3 Cup Powdered Sugar<br />
<br />
Place chocolate chips into a microwave-safe medium bowl. Heat in the
microwave for 1 minute, stir and then continue to heat at 20 second
intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. Stir in sugar
and corn syrup. Blend in rum. Add crushed vanilla wafers and chopped
nuts. Mix until evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate until firm.<br />
<br />
Roll the chilled chocolate mixture into bite-size balls. Roll balls
in a mixture of ground nuts and confectioner’s sugar, or just plain
confectioner’s sugar. Store in a covered container for a week before
serving to blend the flavors.<br />

<strong><span style="color: red;">A sweet holiday memory by author Kim Hotzon </span></strong><br />
<br />
<a href="https://crystalfirsdon.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/6th-memory-pic.jpg"><img alt="6th Memory Pic" class="wp-image-265 alignright" height="124" originalh="124" originalw="211" scale="1.5" src-orig="https://crystalfirsdon.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/6th-memory-pic.jpg?w=211&h=124" src="https://crystalfirsdon.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/6th-memory-pic.jpg?w=317&h=124" width="211" /></a>There
is one special Christmas memory that I’ll never forget. As a teenager,
I woke on Christmas morning to an announcement from my younger brother,
who was only 3 at the time. “Santa built a house!” His wide-eyed
exuberance brought me running to the front window. I wiped my bleary
eyes as he pointed at the driveway. “See? Santa built you a house!” He
jumped up and down in his excitement. Gazing at the driveway, I was too
stunned to speak.<br />
<br />
What I learned later that morning, as my dad handed me a set of keys
duct-taped twenty layers deep, was that he had re-commissioned an old
car donated by the church, turning it into a shiny, fabulous set of
wheels for his teen-aged daughter. He’d spent months, along with a
family friend, detailing and overhauling the car, getting it ready in
time for Christmas. I could never have imagined in my wildest dreams
receiving a car on Christmas morning. Naturally, I squealed, standing in
my housecoat on the driveway, as I ripped off the cardboard from a
hundred boxes covering the car. The entire ‘box’ was wrapped up in a
giant, red bow. To my brother’s eyes, it certainly looked like a house,
though I had to explain to him that it was in fact a car. I was humbled,
surprised, and delighted by the realization that others would go to
such lengths to make that car into something special for me. My dad
provided a lesson in giving from the heart that resonated deeply. The
only condition given to me? I had to save up for car insurance!<br />

I'm thrilled to be among eight authors whose novelettes (10,000 words each) will be featured in the upcoming Christmas anthology, SIZZLE IN THE SNOW, by Soul Mate Publishing. My story is entitled "Santa Baby," and I had such fun writing it. <br />
<br />
Last spring when I saw the Call for Submission for this anthology, I immediately thought of five storylines. I happily started on one and was half finished with a sweet, heartwarming story when the editor, Char Chaffin, asked for a steamy novelette. Huh? Screech the breaks er, keyboard. My story was not steamy whatsoever.<br />
<br />
So, what's an author to do except save the current document (as yet untitled) and start over with a blank page. I scratched my head trying to think of a steamy Christmas story that would still have a heartwarming happily ever after. I thought and thought and finally did it! I'm really happy with the result and hope you will be as well. It's unique as far as holiday stories go. :)<br />
<br />
All of the SIZZLE IN THE SNOW authors are sharing recipes, DIY holiday tips, favorite songs, excerpts, Christmas memories, and more. I'm running hard to catch up since I've had an insanely busy fall. Look for those fun posts over the next couple of days while I catch up. Meanwhile follow us on Twitter at #sizzleinthesnow and stay tuned for our Facebook launch party in November!Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16685726789687443442noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5744229911868864730.post-87235251235568565232015-09-29T15:23:00.000-05:002015-09-29T15:23:25.105-05:00I WON the RONE!!

I'm still walking on air after winning the RONE for THURSDAYS AT COCONUTS at the recent InD'Scribe Author & Reader Con held in Palm Springs, California. My debut novel won in the "Women's Fiction/Chick-Lit category." I couldn't be more excited or honored.<br />
<br />
First, thank you to the readers, reviewers, and judges. This was a three-tier judging system based on reviews, popular vote, and finally, judging by industry professionals. What a thrill. <br />

To top it off, the conference featured Anne Perry as the first keynote speaker. Anne Perry!!! She had me at accent. I just love her British accent. Anne talked comfortably and openly about writing and her journey. It was riveting.<br />
<br />
The second day our keynote speaker was Catherine Bybee who is not only a NYT and USA Today Bestselling author but also a cool chick! Her personal story had me in tears and motivated everyone. Her Weekday Brides Series is extremely popular and she gave everyone a copy.<br />

We also attended a variety of workshops on everything from writing about sex to indie publishing. I learned a great deal from the author panels and made many friends from around the globe. Authors descended upon Palm Springs from many states, Canada, England, and other countries. It was thrilling to meet them and hear about their journeys.<br />
<br />
There were also book signings, author luncheons, and dancing every night! To top it off, there were male cover models!! Female models, too, but the guys?! Come on.<br />
<br />
I was also fortunate to meet several fellow authors from Soul Mate Publishing--Alina Field, Janna Shay, Darcy Flynn, and Sue Berger. What fun to meet them, as well as many of my author friends from Facebook in person!!<br />

I'll be one of the signing authors.<br />
<br />
There will be parties (yes, parties and male models!) Thursday night is a "Dress Like your Favorite Movie Star" party. I'm going as Marilyn Monroe. I have the white halter dress from a sixties-themed party I held for my husband years ago. I just need to add red lipstick, bling, heels, and maybe a mole. :)<br />
<br />
Friday during the day will be book signings and workshops. Friday night is a fun blog hop with everything from Arabian Nights to Hoedowns.<br />
<br />

I'm beyond humbled to be a finalist in the Women's Fiction/Chick Lit category and am honored that reviewers and fans voted for my debut novel, THURSDAYS AT COCONUTS. Thank you very much!!! <br />
<br />
I believe there's a breakfast on Sunday and then we'll probably all collapse in one happy heap. Come and see us if you're in or near Palm Springs, California!<br />

Actually, it has been a lovely, albeit extremely busy summer. Let me explain the play on words for "labor."<br />
<br />
A few months ago, I wrote a novelette (10,000-word story) entitled "Santa Baby" for possible inclusion in the Soul Mate Publishing Christmas anthology. And I was thrilled to learn my story was one of seven that was selected. Funny thing is, I wrote about a woman in labor on December 23. She's all alone. No boyfriend. No father. Until... Well, you'll find out soon enough. Look forward to many blogs, prizes, and parties from all of the authors this November!<br />
<br />
Interestingly, the month after I wrote "Santa Baby," my daughter told me she's going to have her first baby! Pretty amazing timing, right? We're very excited and are in full tilt mode for the upcoming baby shower, planning, and the precious bundle.<br />
<br />
I also started a new novel a few months ago, currently titled STRANDED IN PARADISE. The title will most likely change. I have a really good one in mind if my publisher will let me use it!! I really love the hero, Ty, who has a very cool profession! I can't wait to tell you about it. And the villain, Derek, is a total jerk. I love creating nasty people, it seems. The heroine is Pepper who is an unemployed, unlucky-in-love daycare worker. I'm about 85 percent finished with the first draft, then I'll tackle edits and the dreaded synopsis. My novel is set on a beautiful, serene island in Florida that I want to visit and hope you will as well.<br />
<br />
We went on a two-week vacation with three sets of family members in Arizona and California and saw the famed "Standin' On the Corner" in Winslow, Arizona (by the Eagles), the Lowell Observatory, the infamous Meteor Crater, and of course, Hollywood! At the observatory, we were able to view Venus during the day and learned a maintenance guy who loved astronomy took tons of photos and was the one who discovered Pluto. A young girl from England entered a contest and named Pluto. Fun facts.<br />

Here we go with another weekly challenge from one of the talented authors of Romance Writers Weekly (RWW). This week, Victoria Barbour <a href="http://victoriabarbour.com/blog">http://victoriabarbour.com/blog</a> asked us to create a cast of characters from our new release or WIP. I hope you made it over here from Jeanne McDonald's blog at <a href="https://authorjeannemcdonald.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://authorjeannemcdonald.wordpress.com/</a><br />
<br />
In my newest release, THURSDAYS AT COCONUTS, I have quite a cast of characters and know who would be IDEAL to play them in a movie. See if you agree or feel free to suggest your own cast. Here goes:<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz4tbSCw3tuwGHFw6EgkEulUBvN5Zf4QNhMjAbhX-hxv6YoolZrgTGQsuiQynfBv-6jvoHaoye38q5Fo1LC-XFfUjUxo-fV8xiEMyTUA56EdLevdn1mWiTnHu0xEcuhMYGYaDvXqXTjxyk/s1600/Amy+Adams+as+Suzy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz4tbSCw3tuwGHFw6EgkEulUBvN5Zf4QNhMjAbhX-hxv6YoolZrgTGQsuiQynfBv-6jvoHaoye38q5Fo1LC-XFfUjUxo-fV8xiEMyTUA56EdLevdn1mWiTnHu0xEcuhMYGYaDvXqXTjxyk/s1600/Amy+Adams+as+Suzy.jpg" /></a>Suzy - A wedding planner who can't find her own wedded bliss. She's a motherly single mom who is still pining for her high school boyfriend and faces the ultimate betrayal on her wedding day. She single handedly deals with neurotic brides and a horrible, pretentious mother of the bride--all with a smile (mostly). To play Suzy, I'd suggest Amy Adams. She looks like the perfect wedding planner who could handle my crazy brides.<br />
<br />
<br />

Alex is a beautiful blonde professional who is a savvy businesswoman but falls for a married officer who may be stalking her. She also has a "touch" of OCD and is habitually late. Reese Witherspoon would make a fantastic Alex. I could see her in the boardroom, being sexy and harried all the while having serious chemistry with the cop.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCUc4BVIuy4laa6-jHvn4ZBrpeuQ0Oa5OmawMmP24KT9CjZwPiKoi4CU0plOlL_TiBF6EShYQfLltRubLaJuYw0Lrr5mi02ZPfC3rQxoGcEs6WvVP6ElfBfDKk9pXblIMq9-46bdNLrgJT/s1600/Melissa+McCarthy+as+Hope.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCUc4BVIuy4laa6-jHvn4ZBrpeuQ0Oa5OmawMmP24KT9CjZwPiKoi4CU0plOlL_TiBF6EShYQfLltRubLaJuYw0Lrr5mi02ZPfC3rQxoGcEs6WvVP6ElfBfDKk9pXblIMq9-46bdNLrgJT/s1600/Melissa+McCarthy+as+Hope.jpg" height="200" width="135" /></a><br />
<br />
Hope - A fun high school guidance counselor who is adored by her students. But Hope hates her body, her frizzy hair, and is straddled by hippie parents. She loves her BFFs, Alex and Suzy, but wishes she had one-ounce of their sexiness. Hope faces many trials with her hippie parents and discovers a secret that almost went to the grave. Melissa McCarthy would make such a great Hope. I can just see her dealing with the hippie parents, Larry and Montana, and the students would love her!<br />

Tony Montgomery - A sexy bad-boy cop who has a cheating wife. He falls for Alex but won't leave his marriage because of his young son, Joey. Tony has a few secrets of his own but that swagger, chiseled jaw line, and icy blue eyes pretty much let him get away with anything. I don't KNOW who would be best for Tony. He needs to have dark hair and be tall. I describe him as a younger, taller George Clooney in my novel. Any suggestions? Maybe a taller Adam Levine? I know Adam's a singer but he has the right look. Feel free to suggest an actor to play the cop! Thanks to Leslie for suggesting Ian Somerhalder for one of her characters. He'd make a great Tony/cop!<br />
<br />
Okay, that was fun. And, by the way, my novel is available on Amazon at

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Challenged by the talented attorney-author Veronica Forand, the writers from RWW are supposed to write a 100-word fiction story using these three words: Coffee, Spring, and lizard.

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">“That lizard is so sluggish.” Julie sipped her coffee. “He
hasn’t moved in an hour.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Her neighbor, Sylvia, ignored the comment and snipped
Hibiscus blooms. “I love Spring.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Julie studied the lizard. “Do you think he’s alive?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Her friend peered at the statue-like lizard. “Not sure but he
certainly has good balance.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Julie walked inside to answer a ringing phone. With
warp-like speed the lizard crawled across the screen, onto the wicker patio
table, and into Julie’s pink coffee cup. Sylvia covered her mouth to keep from
screaming—or laughing. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Seattle, taking her friend's boyfriend and leaving her high school sweetheart
without a word of explanation. Now she's back in Willow Park, Illinois, to help
care for her ailing father—and it's no surprise that her ex, Dr. Richard
Hunter, is still angry.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua",serif;">Still, she's a different Lucy now.
Sober, wiser, ready to make amends to the long—make that very long—list of
those she mistreated during her wild younger days. Falling for Richard all over
again would mean wreaking havoc in both their lives and possibly squandering
her opportunity for redemption. But here, in the place where everything went
wrong, is the one person who always felt right, and a second-chance that could
be the best mistake she ever made…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Born British and raised in South Africa, Sarah Hegger suffers from an incurable case of wanderlust. Her match? A hot Canadian engineer, whose marriage proposal she accepted six short weeks after they first met. Together they’ve made homes in seven different cities across three different continents (and back again once or twice). If only it made her multilingual, but the best she can manage is idiosyncratic English, fluent Afrikaans, conversant Russian, pigeon Portuguese, even worse Zulu and enough French to get herself into trouble.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 6pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Mimicking her globe-trotting adventures, Sarah’s career path began as a gainfully employed actress, drifted into public relations, settled a moment in advertising, and eventually took root in the fertile soil of her first love, writing. She also moonlights as a wife and mother.She currently lives in Draper, Utah, with her teenage daughters, two Golden Retrievers and aforementioned husband. Part footloose buccaneer, part quixotic observer of life, Sarah’s restless heart is most content when reading or writing books. </span><span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua",serif; font-size: 12pt;">She loves to hear from readers and you can find her at any of the places below.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
