Well, I didn’t really win, but I came in second in the “First Kiss” contest at the Yellow Rose Valentine meeting. But for me, it was winning, because I wrote!! Yes folks, I stayed up until almost 3:00 Friday night/Saturday morning and wrote around 1,300 words!! That was the most I’ve written in almost 2 years and I’ll tell you right now, it felt good. And it’s a new story, not a re-working of old stuff that wasn’t really working for me. I got the reaction that I wanted – they laughed when they were supposed to, so everything was fantastic.
Sooo, how was your weekend? Both of you, or are there three of you out there now? By the way, at the bottom of the page you’ll find something about followers. This is some blogger application where you can sign up as a “follower” of my blog. Not that I’m some cult leader or anything. LOL Anyway, it would be nice to know who is reading this stuff – ‘cuz from what I understand, there are a few lurkers out there.
Anyway, my second place entry is too long to put here, so if you’re interested in reading it, let me know and I’ll send it to you. As long as I know who “you” are. Not really kidding there …..
That's the journey of a writer, long and winding. Ups and downs, rejections, joys, acceptance, laughter, tears, community, and yet a sense of loneliness. The road is bumpy, often full of potholes, and yet it's one we gladly follow, for we are writers and writing is a part of our soul. Join me on my journey.

Welcome to Blogger
So what do you think? I'm still messing with it (in fact, I've changed templates three times already), but I think this is going to work out okay. Only one problem so far ... HOW DO YOU DO LINKS! (How are you feeling Toni? Was that too loud for you?)
This is my third post for the evening - the other's are pictures (look below). But I just wanted to put up a welcome post for those of you who will be joining me today. I will no longer be posting on bravenet - they made me mad with their broadband crap, so here I am. I'm thinking about doing another blog just with my book recommends. What do you think?
Draw - in case you missed it - a tie (two pieces of paper stuck together) Butterfly - you here yet? You need to email me with your snailmail addy. I can't send your book without it. Oh, and Olga - narrow down your choice - I ain't sending you all of the romantic suspense. And if you didn't win this time, keep at it.
I'm going to miss the smilies though. I really liked them ...
Now, if anyone can help me with links I would be most appreciative. And don't say go to "edit me" because I've tried and it just messes with my non-technical mind.
