Why I Love The Nay Sayers So I was writing my last book, MONEY HONEY, and my heroine needed a female friend to provide some perspective. Maria “Goose” di Guzman strolled onto the page and delivered it mercilessly. She was wry, smart, and spot-on with the advice, whether my heroine wanted to hear it or not. (She didn’t.) And to top it all off, she was nearly six feet of long-legged, dark-eyed sex appeal, all wrapped up in a designer suit. In short, she was perfect. A little too perfect, Continue Reading

Mandi’s Weekend at Lori Foster’s
I got my conference cherry popped! Or something like that. Last Friday, Bells and I hopped in my “Van O’Fun” and drove eight hours to Cincinnati, Ohio to attend the Lori Foster Author/Reader Get together. We had a blast. The drive itself wasn’t too bad. Our route took us west through the mountains (or at least as mountainous as Maryland can get) and there were many ooh and ahhs as we took it all in. Bells had her ipod going, and all of a sudden a Kenny Rogers song came on, which made me gasp. Continue Reading
