Photo from Author Signing
In November I teamed up with fellow author and friend Cheri Andrews for a book signing at the Davinci Academy Holiday Marketplace. My sister came by and snapped a photo of "The Authors" (hey, that's me!). I was hoping I'd sell more books but the people were fun. You can see the picture here (and read some cool reviews too!).

What I Like to Drink and other Oddball Questions
J.A. Saare had some fun, unusual questions for me today, including this one: "What's your favorite beverage when you write?"

See what other oddball tidbits Jaime got out of me here!

"My Defining Moment" on today's book tour stop
Today I'm at LONG LIVE CHICK LIT! Here's a teaser...
I've tended to “grow into” each new identity.
Being a writer is no different.
Perhaps I should pause here and try to define the difference between "writer" and "author" (in my opinion). I do this because I've been a writer since I was in my teens; I wrote for fun and relaxation with no thought to ever being "published." Almost anyone can write (maybe not well, but they do).
Being an author, on the other hand, requires a more intentional approach - and a whole lot more persistence! (And in many ways, it's also tied to publication.)
Until recently, I didn't consider myself an author.
In fact, I'm still getting used to the idea (e.g., "growing into" that identity)!
So what was the defining moment?
There were two...
