Bobbie, Thank you so much for the lovely compliment! I know other Harlequin Intrigue authors are writing enovellas currently, but I'm not sure who has theirs out already. The names that pop into my head are Paula Graves, Rickey Mallory and Julie Miller.
I'm so glad reading is such a popular hobby! It has always been a huge part of my life. You all gave me some new ideas I'll have to try now. And I definitely won't give up on knitting yet. Those socks will be made!!!! :-)
Valerie--Wow, a large landscape. I haven't been that brave yet. I'm still practicing on smaller subjects. The Christmas cards sound amazing. Your family are very luck!!!
Anne--I read a lot more than I travel. I LOVE being in far away places, but I HATE getting there. LOL
Colleen--I'm trying to learn to draw better. Someone told me that practicing to draw will make my painting better. Do you have your drawings posted anywhere online?
Leni--Sounds like you're very artistic! I started yoga a few weeks ago. I couldn't go last week and really missed it. I really love how I feel afterwards. How long have you been donig it?
Well, it seems that most everyone had unexpected changes that took them into a good direction. As the country song says, "Thank God for unanswered prayers!" I'm actually glad that some of the things I'd planned in the past didn't work out. I planned for a fab corporate career for one. I was working for an international corporation when they closed their U.S. office. Then came unemployment. I sure didn't plan for that! But while looking for another job, I wrote my first book, Shadow Soldier. And never went back to another office job again. And I'm very, very happy about that! :-) And, if I may speak for Prince Istvan, he certainly didn't plan on falling for an ex-jewel-thief--the daughter of a tomb raider, for love's sake. He tried to resist. He really did, the dear thing. But I was writing the book, and I said, "Too bad!" Well, they were perfect for each other. I would have been a terrible writer if I didn't insist. :-)
I'm glad I'm not the only one! Darci, good luck to your son! You never know. Some wild dreams do come true. Sara, I'm glad you like the pictures. I'm still in Eastern Europe and it's beautiful here. We thought we'd be moving back to the U.S. this summer, but the transfer fell through. Well, maybe it'll be for the better, like Leni says. Although, I'm just too homesick at the moment to see the silver lining just yet :-)
