Here's a peak of the cover for Promise Me. It certainly is a hot one. It isn't exactly what I was expecting, which is exactly why I shouldn't be in charge of creating covers. I never would have even considered anything this beautiful and hot. But I love it so much. They captured the relationship between the two characters so well.

Along with the cover I got the unexpected news that Promise Me will be out on Tuesday August 20th. Its soon, but I couldn't be happier. It has been a long road to get this book from kernel of an idea to published book, so it seems right that the process should be sped up at the end. Even the book is anxious to be out there in the world.

I'll be sharing even more about his story in the days to come. I hope you'll keep stopping by to learn everything about this story. And these two characters that love each other so much.

Some of them are intentional, but most aren't. They are just the little silvers of me that get imprinted in each book without me even realizing it. The parts of me that show up in my characters relationships, in each dinner table, in all my heroines.

Stop on by to see what you can learn about me just by reading my writing. Hopefully a few of them will be a surprise.

A good critique partner is hard to find, and it definitely takes a lot of work to get one that works well with your needs and your writing, but a good one is worth your weight in gold (especially when you are just starting out).

I list the traits most needed in a critique partner, at least for me. Stop by and let me know what you look for in a critique partner and how best to find a good one (that has always been my biggest issue). I'd love to hear your thoughts.

This year has been a bit slower than I would like, and as a goal oriented person that's hard for me. But I'm working on appreciating the small steps. Stop by and offer me a little encouragement for my new self care progress.

Listening to her words got me to thinking about how I could be more inclusive in my own work, but it also got me thinking about what I'm not willing to write about.

I'm over at Sweet'n'Sexy diva's today talking about what I absolutely will never write about. These are things that I just can't stomach every writing into my books, for the hero, the heroine or the villain. Stop by and let me know if you agree. Are there some things that shouldn't be written about in romance? And what are they?
