I haven't forgotten

Hey there! I haven't forgotten about this blog, though it might look that way sometimes ! But I've been busy - camping, boating, fishing, working at the day job, and of course, writing.

I sent out a ton of cover flats for Lone Star Magic, the November book. I've already heard from one bookseller, who commented on how different a Western/Fantasy book was. I'm excited that she thinks this book is something new and exciting, and hope my readers agree.

After a lovely weekend at the lake, I'm home. Today I started Missing Magic, the next Fae book for Dorchester. This one is going to be a blast to write, as Denise Bishop is the first utterly damaged heroione I've written. The book is Cenrick's story (Alrick's twin brother from Lone Star Magic,) but it's as much Denise Bishop's story as it is his. I'm not sure of a release date for this one, but I'm thinking late 2006.

School started today for thousands of Texas children - and teachers! My daughter moved to a different school district, though she still teaches the same grade (4th!) I think she was as nervous this morning as one of the kids. She emailed me that she couldn't eat breakfast due to an upset stomach! I emailed back to smile a lot.

Back to work!
