The Second Book

It is great to have a second book out. Unlike BROMPTON MANOR, a Regency historical, STARTING FROM SCRATCH is a contemporary chick-lit style story.

The love interest has a big role, he is a great guy--my kind of guy--but the story is about the heroine taking charge of her life and following her dream without losing the people she loves and who love her.

The past week  was a wonderful time in Orlando where I attended the Romance Writer's annual conference. Like always, the conference was filled with wonderful people , great workshops, and inspiring speakers. But this year, I thought the conference hotel, The Swan and Dolphin, was superior to any of the previous conference hotels I have been to and this was my ninth conference.

And now I am back home and picking up my writing. Hoping all of the inspiration I got from being among fellow writers for a week will spur me to make a larger effort.

May you all find inspiration for the tasks you are faced with in a mother's group, a social club, church, working for a cause you believe in, or from a boss with excellent management skills and a heart of gold.
