So much for catching up on blog posts. There’s a nasty cold/flu/bug thing going around, and despite eating super-healthy and working out, I’m the only one in my office that seems to have caught the damned thing. I was so out of it today (day 3) that I dragged my sorry ass into work, thinking
I’m completely behind primarily because I finally got to see The Hobbit on Sunday. My daughter, Kate, and I went to the local cinema complex to check out Richard Armitage and Martin Freeman.

I’m back to the grind stone. How about you? I’m sitting on the bus heading for the day job as I write this. It’s dark outside, snow is lying all around, it’s hovering around ten below zero (Celsius) and the nicest thing about my day so far is the hot English Breakfast tea in my

This is one of those posts I warned you might pop up while I was technically on vacation. I’m still hunched over a hot keyboard, and Red Leopard is first off the production line. I’ll have books two and three out as quickly as I can manage it, too. This is an erotic romance series for
