My friend and very talented author Kelly L Stone has been hosting a 90 Day Writing Challenge.  To celebrate the success of her event and all of its participants, Kelly has invited some guest bloggers over to chat about the writing life. Today is my day to chat. 🙂  I’m over at her blog, talking about the importance of rewarding yourself–and I’m giving away a Cynthia Eden book (this means any of my books, including an ARC of this summer’s NEVER CRY WOLF).  If you get a chance, come on by!

Hope you are having a great weekend!

I hope you all have a fabulous St. Patrick’s Day! Wear your green. Find a rainbow. Try not to get pinched! 🙂

I found this St. Patrick’s Day toast online and thought I’d share–you know, in case you happen to be toasting today:

Here’s to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one
A pretty girl and an honest one
A cold beer – and another one!

***

Though, when I do my toasting later, I’ll change it to:

Here’s to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one
A handsome man and an honest one
A cold beer – and another one!

***

After all–I’m always up for toasting to a handsome man. 🙂

If you’ve got a favorite toast or Irish blessing to share, please do!

In honor of Women’s History Month, I’ve written a post for The Book Case, the Bookpage blog, about the female writers who influenced me.  If you get a chance, come by! And tell me–who influenced you?

Hi, everyone!  Hope your week is going well!

Today, awesome author Marie Force is featuring DEADLY HEAT as her bookclub selection. Come on over and join the discussion–there are 2 copies of DEADLY LIES that will be given away to commenters there!

I also have an interview and giveaway (I love giveaways!) up at Get Lost In A Story.

And, on Monday, March 7th at 2:00 PM, I will participate in a Blog Talk Radio Romantic Suspense Roundtable discussion!  Other participating authors are fabulous authors Roxanne St. Claire and Jami Alden.  Come and chat with us! 🙂

I’ve found out that DEADLY LIES made the Bookscan Top 100 Bestsellers List! Thank you so much to everyone who has bought and read Sam’s story!  I had such a great time writing her book.  Thank you!
