Look What Happened While I Wasn’t Looking

Tax season. Ugh. Well, I’ve been a good girl and got mine done in a sweat-soaked, brain-haze-inducing ten days of concentrated spread-sheet meditation. I lost four pounds in the effort and now I’ve come up for air and discovered: “Fantastically Written Romantic Suspense” A five star review on Amazon for Dead Again — very nice.

Thank You.

Thank you to the many friends and readers who wished me and Mark a happy birthday and wedding anniversary and day-we-met last week, Friday, and over the weekend.

What I’m Reading – February 18, 2013

I’ve virtually stopped reading on my cellphone altogether.  It’s rare I revert to the little screen – usually only if my Tablet is in power-down mode. But on my Tablet…. Attack Your Day!: Before It Attacks You Mark Woods, Trapper Woods Remember DayTimers?  And DayRunner?  I used to be addicted to them.  The anal combination

The Next Phase of Ebook Reading – Multi-Function Devices

Okay, so I got an Android Tablet for Christmas (Asus Infinity, love you, Mark), and finally realized that while cellphone reading is sooooo convenient (it is!), there is something lovely about that full screen, with a laid-out page and actual images embedded where they’re supposed to go. I never got the hang of hauling around
