That's a good note, Brenda. I'll need to explain that somewhere along the way. Hey...starting Monday, I'll be posting a new blog here every weekday. Fun stuff. Would love to see you getting in the mix with some of those! I love “bless her heart” and the way it’s almost a backhanded slap. That’s a good note, Brenda.

I was born and raised in Central Florida and it really bothers me now that I live in GA that people say that I'm not from the south! I spent the first 37 years of my life in FL and can't see how that's not the south! But at least Tori accepted the correction graciously.... Oh, and speaking of corrections, are you going to enlighten the readers, who aren't from the south, about the meaning of "bless her heart"? That is one of my most favorite "southern" phrases! Happy New Year, Brenda Elizabeth,

I'm so glad you enjoyed Sew Deadly!! And you know what? I love living the kind of friendships I formed between my characters, too. Tori is the kind of friend everyone wishes they had because she gives it unconditionally. The new book will now be released on MAY 4th (they're making a neat change to the cover) so mark it down!!! Happy New Year! Hi Brenda!

My favorite "reader" is Christina Moore. Elizabeth, I started and finished Sew Deadly today.... Great book. You are now tied with my favorite author - Jennifer Chiaverini. I love the Elm Creek Quilt book series. I lack the ladies to form a sewing group or a quilting bee so I love living the friendships formed in your books. I can't wait for the next book!

Theres no specific time frame but I really like to get those items checked off, so it does keep me from procrastinating to much. I also do the list.

Very neat! I'm so glad you liked SEW DEADLY!!!! The second, DEATH THREADS, comes out March 2nd!!!

I can't possibly read, or watch, that much in a week. I only break that rule when I'm reading magazines (and saving money by doing it there). When my son was young we limited ourselves to a given number of books (7 specifically). That way I wasn't always reading the same book over and over. We also recorded the books as we read them so he could listen again, and again to the same book (while I cooked or baked, getting my list checked off, my books read, and keeping him happy).

Sounds like that requires some discipline...but I like the notion. Very cool. Dru, time allocation? Sounds like that requires some discipline…but I like the notion. Very cool.
