A drummer and a doorbell #contest

Who loves to rock out to a good drum solo? Me! Me! Nothing gets the blood pumping like jumping up and down and shimmying those hips around. And whenever I do, all the other shoppers let me go first in line. Ha-ha! No really, I only shake it down in the privacy of my home. Or car. Or after much wine, and as long as others are dancing along too.

There's a house in my work-in-progress book, and the original owner was a rock drummer. He had his door chime set up with a drum solo, of course. What song has a great drum introduction? Enter my contest here for a chance to win an Amazon or your favorite bookseller gift card. Winner will be drawn on December 20th using random.org. 

I can't wait to hear your answers, and good luck!

Honoring #NaNoWrMo2016 and starting the third layer; where the fun sh*t happens

There's no way I can write 50,000 words in thirty days, but I love and embrace the spirit of National Novel Writing Month. Go writers! I'm thrilled to report that in three months, I've written 60,000 words. For me, that's awesome-balls and I have to tell you, I shed a few proud tears today. But many days, I look at what I've done and compare myself to others. The tears on those days aren't so proud. Aaargh! I'm never going to hit a best-seller list, or make those millions, or have thousands of fans at this pace. I write too slow. I should just hang it up.

But I haven't. I have a goal and once that's met, I might adjust my direction, but I won't stop. I'll plan another goal, and keep tapping on my keyboard. Because there's always hope. We only fail if we quit. And a big reason why I write is because I love books. They've been my salvation during this craptastic year. I know at the end of every day, I can crawl into a story and lose myself for a while. Bless you, authors, for helping me keep my sanity, and I hope my books help others keep theirs.

Very soon I'll be starting on what I call the third layer of my next book. That's the really fun part. I have the story-line down and logistics covered. Everyone is doing what they're supposed to do and hanging out where they're supposed to be. Now, I get to coax out all the personality quirks from my characters, and add the details that make the story shine. I'll keep at it, because the thrill of having a finished book outweighs the sad parts.

If you're in Florida, I'll be at a multi-author book signing this Saturday. Come by for goodies, giveaways and of course, books!
