Check it out, y’all! I’m officially official. I just found my book signing on the Borders website events listing for the North Raleigh store on October 7.

Here’s the store’s website, and here’s the event listing for me.

*happy dance*

I am SOOOO nervous. I mean, I did book signings at RT and RWA, but this… this is just ME. I sure as heck somebody out there shows up (besides my mom I mean) for it!

If you’re around Raleigh on October 7, please come by!! It’s from 1 to 2 pm at the North Raleigh Borders. Hope to see you there!

Yeah, bad pun on Richard III, but hello seriously. Some men digging a trench next door cut our cable line yesterday.
That meant no tv, no phone, and NO INTERNET. *gasp*
You don’t realize how much you count on it until you don’t have it. Like a baby denied mother’s milk. Like a flower denied the sun! (Am I being too dramatic? )
Sigh… I couldn’t wait to get to work this morning so I could check my e-mail. I am such a total dork.
Anyhoo, I’ve got a ton of stuff to catch up on - thought I’d share my pitiful story with y’all. Amazing how fifteen years ago, I thought my 8 MB hard drive was the coolest thing on the planet.
What do you think? Are we too dependent on the Internet?

My fabuloso web designer, Frauke, has added some Halloween smilies to my blog. I love them!
My favorites:


I have such wonderful memories of Halloween as a kid. It’s funny how my parents let us go out for hours alone, yet now I won’t even let my 10 year old walk around our small neighborhood without an escort. And then there’s the candy… do you remember getting popcorn balls? Yep, I loved those! Oh, oh, and the cheap older couple that wrapped 10 pennies in tape?
Then when i got older - well, the rotten tomato fights with the boys in the neighborhood. And I remember very clearly getting hit with eggs from a moving car… we were all so evil!
Any favorite Halloween memories to share?

Again. Let’s do something fun to liven it up, eh?

Quiz time! Yes, I know I’m a dork, but I love them.

Hey, I was a swan! Way cool!

You Were a Swan

You are a spiritual soul who sees into the future. You are also good at interpreting dreams - those of yourself and others.

Squeeeeeee!!! OMG, I feel like a real author today - I now have FIVE books available in print from Amazon!!! The Treasure is officially released in print October 17, but it’s available for preorder.

Whew. Needed a boost this weekend.
