No Sufficient Words!

As I write this Thursday night, I feel tired and humbled. My kids got to bed way too late - like hours late in my 2-year-old's case :), and my kitchen sink is still full of today's dishes. But it doesn't matter. What matters tonight and in the days ahead is the gratitude I feel right now.

Thank you to everyone who came tonight to the launch party for LADY OUTLAW. Thank you to everyone who helped us pull this party off with a bang. Thank you to everyone for your support! It is truly amazing, humbling and encouraging.

Big Announcement!

For those unable to attend the launch party, I wanted to share my big announcement here! I will be publishing a three-book, inspirational romance WWI series with Grand Central Publishing. The first book is slated for release in March 2014 - the 100-year anniversary of the start of WWI. Grand Central has been doing romance for a long time, but they're just starting into inspirational romance and I'm so excited to be part of that venture.

Launch Party Photos!

love these ladies!)

More LADY OUTLAW Fun!

Jessica - It was a blast, though kind of like a wedding reception in that it didn't totally feel real. :)

Thanks, Melissa! Loved your blog post today.

Stina - My sister-in-law is our photographer - it was her fantastic idea to make them look antique. :)

E. Arroyo - I teared up talking about my crit group - we've been through a lot together and they helped quite a bit with this book!

Jenilyn - Thanks! It's quite a departure from the "old west" :), but I think WWI is a fascinating time period too.

Congratulations on the book deal! I sure wish I could have come to your party. Looks like it was so much fun!

Cassie Mae - A female Robin Hood was exactly the sort of heroine I wanted to create. :)

Loree - I think with the popularity of Downton Abbey that WWI books/shows are gaining attention, and that's exciting!

Angie - The western theme really turned out to be perfect and fun!
