RWA National and page proofs

Monday, June 25th, 2007

Yes!!!!  I am going!!!  It took a lot of hoops, but I am set to go!  I’m so incredibly excited. July 11-15, Dallas, TX with my husband, my agent and my editor!  This is too cool.  Please stop by the literacy autographing, there will be a lot of really wonderful authors there signing awesome books.  I won’t be signing this year as I’m still waiting for my 1st release, but I hope to do so next year!

So, stop by and look for the blonde with a dark red scooter trying not to run everyone over and beeping when she backs up.  LOL

Also, I read the final page proofs for Betrayed last week and they are in the mail and should reach my editor tomorrow!  This is so cool.  So much closer to holding my book in the palm of my hand.  :) 

 

Update

Thursday, June 21st, 2007

It’s summer!  Both my kids are out of school.  Last Friday, I was the proud Mama watching her youngest graduate elementary in her beautiful blue formal.  (we’d gotten it for her uncle’s wedding.)  Then Saturday was my oldest’s sweet 16. She just wanted to hang out with family, so we saw Pirates of the Carribean 3 and had dinner with the grandparents.  Father’s Day was simply hanging out at the grandparent’s, also.  It was a really nice, relaxing weekend.  :)

So, I’m still trying to update things for the website.  For some reason, I, who can usually figure out software and web stuff, can-absolutely-not work my way around Go Daddy.  I’ll be finding a new host soon.  One I’ll have an easier time of navigating.  I did send my bookmarks to print and am currently learning Adobe In Design to create a better resolution graphic of my business cards.  I will also be sending out my newsletter, eventually.  LOL 

I hit one of my Friedreich’s Ataxia low-energy points last month.   I’m still catching up on it.  So, I have galleys to get in, pages on book 2 to write, the business cards to design, the newsletter to send out, two gifts I have ready for my newsletter list.  I set something aside and will be choosing 2 winners at random to make up, hopefully, for no newsletter in April or May.

BTW, anyone who will be at RWA National in Dallas this July, come look me up!  I get to go!  **snoopydancing**

I am in the Updating Mode!

There is so much information to share and I am about to show it all.  Very neat.  I love learning programs and making computers dance.  Fun stuff.  :)  So, very soon I will post the Final, Updated cover of Betrayed, an updated summary and all the wonderful, lovely quotes I’ve gathered to show everyone what a few very special people think after their advance peek at Betrayed: the story.  LOL 

Also, good news!  Betrayed is available for pre-order at Amazon.com!  It is so very neat to see my name at Amazon. 

Take care,

Jamie
