Pay it forward.
GRAVY
- My first novel started with a mole. Yes, a MOLE - a freckle, a birthmark, whatever you want to call it.
- I was at the pool with my daughter getting ignored by our swim instructor when a lifeguard with a particularly ripped abdomen walked by. He stopped to flirt with one of the female lifeguards and my eyes flew directly to an adorable mole on the top can of his six-pack.
- "How cute!" I thought (among other things). "He looks like a character in a romance novel!"
- So I went home and started writing fiction for the first time. That was over a year ago and I still haven't been able to stop. GRAVY is the story of a suburban housewife who wants another baby, but gets a man with a mole instead.
- GRAVY is now available on Kindle and Nook!

I am confused...maybe because I am really tired tonight. Does this mean you will have another blog there? And if so, may I say that is completely AWESOME. I read both your blogs and if you go somewhere else I will follow you. I have said it before and I will say it again- I think you ROCK. I love to read your financial,family and just general life advice.
I think you are funny,smart and insightful. I enjoy checking your blogs for new postings.
I am just sayin'!!
