I need more hours in a day!
Hello once again!
After a wonderfully LONG week in Key West, I am back home in Washington State where the weather is mild and there are no sharks! And in case you all wondered....I SAW A SHARK!! While snorkeling over the reef, I saw a reef shark swimming away from me. It was the best moment of my vacation, since it has been a dream of mine for YEARS to see a shark in person! And to see it in the open ocean and to swim away with all of my limbs still intact was great!!
Well, now down to some business!
Now that I am home I have two major things I am working on that are making me feel like I need more hours in my day! This first is that I am training for a triathlon! My race is in 50 days, so each night I am on my stationary bike and treadmill, working out for between an hour and an hour and a half! It makes for great sleep, but not much time for other things!
The second thing I am working on, is of course writing! I finished the second draft of Locket Full of Secrets before I left for vacation, but I am also working on my next book All For Fame, as well as working on an outline for a new series I want to possibly use during NaNoWriMo. Thanks to so much working out for my tri there is not enough time it seems! Fingers crossed that changes soon.
Since I do not want to leave you with any bad news, I wanted to share something exciting with you all! With the release of Locket Full of Secrets only a few months away, you can own your own locket, identical to the one featured in the book!! Check it out here on etsy:

Well, I am off to run....or bike....or maybe even to write! Be sure to check out the lockets if you need something to read, pick up a FREE copy of Stage Lights today and tomorrow on Kindle:
