I'm still writing!


Unbelievable, isn't it? I've written over 7,000 words since I started. Only 18,000 to go in Caddy-Did. I plan to have this book done by the end of Febuary, maybe even sooner.

You know, I've been really insecure lately about my writing, but I've decided to stop being that way. It's stupid. I've been working hard on my craft for seven years now. I'm worthy and it's time to think positive. Since I've been published, I've gotten a lot of great reviews. The harsh ones for awhile outweighed the good, but no more. Even in one of the not so stellar reviews, the gal said I had great character. Yep. I can write 3 dimensional characters like no one elses business, ones you'd love to know yourself. I don't write overly sexy stories, just two people who fall in love, and then make love. I think you have to have some sort of emotional connection between your characters before sex is introduced. That to me is romance. How do you feel? Need more than just sex?

Have a wonderful day. I'm off to work. Yancy and Mauve are getting married today! Kent and Cadence are invited, and going together. Can you see trouble? I can.

Loved the start of your newest, and yet, definitely need more than sex ;)
