Sorry, but I can’t seem to import the pics from the canopy tour. Will give it another shot tomorrow.
Today I’m wrapping up the copy edits (or maybe line edits, I can never keep them straight) on my last novella. Anywho, it’s the part where I read through the editor’s marks and comments and see if there are any changes I object to or sections that need clarifying. Then I have to write the dedication and my bio. Honestly, I’d rather write the entire book than those two pieces. Maybe it’s because the book is…well, about the book and those two pieces are more personal. I dunno, but I don’t like doing them.
However, this will conclude my portion of the Secret Santa Christmas anthology. All told, it was an interesting book to write. When I signed on for the project, my one request was that I had the two people in the office that hated each other the most that get stuck with the other’s name for Secret Santa gifts. :[ It makes for good dialogue and tension. The hero and the heroine are food critics for a travel magazine for food afficianodos. Hey, I like to eat and I like to travel even more. Where do I sign up for that job?:p
BTW, I saw the preliminary cover last week. They did a nice job. Fun but sexy. A Santa hat and a red stiletto heel. Rock on, Blake and Connie (in the art and marketing departments)!
Congrats on your completing this one! When is it due out in stores? Am guessing late in the year…Nov/Dec? I am amazed at your accomplishments!

Ellen, it’s out in December. It’s an anthology with Jannelle Dennison and Isabel Sharpe. And thanks for the nice words on accomplishments. I have this tendancy to think I’m never moving fast enough.
