About Me
I am a romance writer. That's not easy to say. Most people have preconceived notions about romances, and the people who write them. Let me tell you! Writing isn't for sissies. I got my first rejection in April 2004. That makes me a professional. In what other field are you considered a "professional" when you don't get called back for a second interview?

Don't you hate when...

People with kids tell goofy stories about them and think they are the cutest kids on the planet?

Well my kids really ARE the best. And the smartest.

My fourteen month old has been watching sign language videos since she was about nine months old. At first she didn't seem to care about them, but by the time she was a year, she asked for them with a special sign every time she was tired or bored.

She's had about 20 regular signs for the past couple of months. Then she quit signing at all and started screaming and pointing like a normal toddler. All of a sudden yesterday, she started using signs on the videos that she's never used before. Like candy and apple. And doing the Dad and Mom sign closer to correctly. She told her Dad "come here" yesterday because she wanted to show him something.

I'm amazed and thrilled. It's so fun to have two way communication with a child this small. They really do know what's going on, just like we knew they did with the first two.

One extreme to the other. No signs and total tantrums to adding new words and trying to "talk" to me all the time. Actually it's kind of exhausting.
