A cool link for today: a woman who takes pictures entitled things like “Death by Oreo”.
Make sure you hit the “next” button underneath the photo so you can scroll through the gallery. My favourite is “Death by Life Saver”. I would like to see this exhibition.
In my own life, have started chapter two and my friend Ruth, after some brainstorming, has found me the perfect model for my next hero. Ruth, you rule!

Oh and on a more cheerful note than below, I’m guest-blogging over at category romance blogazine The Pink Heart Society today, about one of my favourite ever films, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. Visit here.

Well, the post I put up yesterday seems to have completely disappeared for some reason. It was about my son’s new words. It’s gone. If you commented on it, I’m sorry!
I have got a post up, though, on the wonderful Liz Fielding’s blog. Liz writes wonderful feel-good romance and she’s celebrating her fiftieth book. Go pay her a visit, and leave a comment to win a copy of One Night Stand.
February 20, 2008 | Driving Him Wild, the web
I’m guest posting on Southern Fried Chicas today about how I came up with Driving Him Wild, aka His for the Taking. The story includes Keith Urban, getting pregnant, and torturing my friends (not all at the same time).

We’ve recovered, and the Fecklet seems to have escaped the bug, though we’re still keeping our fingers crossed.
Three quick pimpage things, and then after I’ve got some words down on my wip, I’ll post about the Reading Festival:
My friend Christyne Butler has her first book, Reilly’s Promise out today: her website
Anna Louise Lucia has the cover of her first book with Medallion Press on her blog: www.annalouiselucia.com
And click here to donate mammograms: www.thebreastcancersite.com
In the past two weeks I’ve received copies of my books in Japanese, Greek, French, Italian, and Spanish. I know there are some Portugese and German ones out there, too, which I haven’t received yet.

Oh and I just wanted to mention once again, for those of you who might have forgotten, that my book which is number six on the WALDENBOOKS BESTSELLER LIST was rejected twice by Harlequin/Mills & Boon before they bought the revised version.
Just goes to show. Something.
(I’m on Kate Rothwell’s blog today.)

Modern Extra author Natalie Anderson (whose first book, All Night With the Boss, is out now) has a good discussion about the level of sensuality in Modern Extras on her blog.

Tessa Radley is celebrating the release of her first novel with Silhouette Desire, Black Widow Bride, by having a blog party with lots and lots of guests and lots and lots of chances to win books and other stuff.
I’m up there today, here, but check out all the authors writing on the topic of new things and change, by visiting her blog.

I’ve given in One Night Stand to my agent, and am waiting (quaking in my boots) to find out what she thinks.
Meanwhile I’ve been working on my website. I’ve updated my books page, and posted excerpts for All Work and No Play… and One Night Stand.
I’ve also posted some details about the courses I’ll be leading in August and September, and I’ve put up a photo of myself with cleavage on my home page.
If you’re Italian I’ve also got a contest.
March 28, 2007 | about me, the web
I seem to be spending more time blogging and commenting elsewhere than on my own blog lately!
The Bookworm on the Net blog has a bit about me today, which I find interesting. The author, Anne Weale, is a treasure of information about the reading and publishing world, though she and I have very different opinions about several things (including the colours lime green and orange).
Anyway, Anne talks about adverbs, buying second-hand books, self-promotion, and whether romance novels are partly responsible for teenage pregnancy. See what you think, and while you’re there, check out the many interesting snippets she has about the book world, including Gordon Ramsay’s bollocks, and how a child’s sweater connects to a multimillion-pound bookseller.
