Friday's at the Piedmont Grille

I'm back! I think. It's been such a crazy last few weeks, I'm not sure where I am exactly. But I do know, I've missed you all terribly and I just can't stay away any longer.

Thanks for all your great support with my excerpts. I'm glad so many of you love Ellis as much as I do. I hope you'll get to love Violet as well. She made her debut for the Christmas blogfest, but Ellis has taken over my life, as well as my heart, and hers. As I said before, he is one of my most compelling characters and I love getting inside his head.

I also want to say Thank You and Welcome to all my new followers. Charlie, Meredith, N.R., Mary, Clp3333, Amy, Demitria, Kulsama, Liz, Aimee, and Tamara. I'm sorry it's taken so long for me to follow you back. But I think I remedied that. And if I don't follow you, it's because you never left me an address, so do so now. Please.

I have so much to say, as well you know, but I'll save it for next week (and the week after, and the week after that, etc. ad infinitum.) I'll be sticking to a M-W-F schedule as far as I know. I hope. However, as you know, I'm really trying to finish this WIP by the end of February, so if you don't see me around, that's where I'll be.

I have some exciting news. I found pictures for the characters for MisMatched. I will be posting them on Monday so don't forget. Also, there's another surprise I'm going to share so please stop by. (And no it's not THAT surprise, but really cool just the same.)

Have a great weekend!!

Another Excerpt

Good morning. Happy Valentine's Day. I decided this time to post an excerpt from Violet's POV and see what you think.

Rating G -- Set-up -- Haverlane left to go back to London right after talking to Andrew Perry. Two days later, his mother, Violet's mother, Lady Penny (Haverlane's sister-in-law), and Violet's two youngest sisters show up at Fairhaven to make merry for Twelfth Night.
