The house is all emptied. The truck is packed and we’re ready to leave on Monday. I hate seeing the inside of the house all empty and echoey. We’ve been there the last nine years, summers mostly but falls and summers too. Hopefully this will mark the beginning of a new adventure. But I have to change my author bios at various publishers. Some of them say that I live part of the year on the rocky coast of Maine. That’s no longer true, lol. There’s a chance we’ll end up near a marsh in coastal Georgia which is absolutely beautiful and MUCH warmer!

Anyway, the last part of the trip will be the 1,900 miles back to South Florida in a moving truck. I’m really prone to getting car sick so I am not looking forward to it at all. If I take medication I get sleepy. In some ways that bothers me as much or more than feeling a bit nauseous. Oh well. I’m looking forawrd to getting home and seeing my cat, Squeaky, and getting back to writing! I’ve missed it so much.

Oh, I almost forgot. Also I got to spend time with my friend/critique partner Ruth. We exchanged books. She gave me a copy of her latest release, The Making of a Gentleman (Harlequin Steeple Hill) and she thanked me in the dedication for helping her with it. I look forward to reading the book in a leisurely way as opposed to reading it as a critiquer. I love her stories even though the publisher won’t allow anything more sensual than a kiss (with not tongues!) Can you imagine? lol. And…Ruth brought me my two Kizuna manga in French, the ones I have been searching for high and low. So I’m also looking forward to those.

So aside from the moving blues, I have good book things going on. As you know, Manwich is now available at Ellora’s Cave and MEn of Tokyo: Sudden Surrender releases August 4, a week from Monday. Yay! I hope you will check both books out. I will post again as soon as I can.
