There's a prize drawing.

If It's Tuesday, Where Am I?

I'm at Behind The Book, of course at http://author-secrets.blogspot.com. Where my good friend Maggie Jaimeson is asking all kinds of questions about THE DADDY CATCH.

Drop by and ask your own questions. Or just stop in to say, "Hello." I'll be there all day.

If it's Monday, I'm at Harlequin

No, not actually in the building. Or rather, one of the buildings. There are many.

But today, my post is up at the Harlequin blog where I'm talking about fly fishing and romance. It's a winning combination.

I'd love to have you stop by. Leave a comment if you'd like.

A Blogging We Will Go...

Today, I'm talking about the Awful, Terrible, Crazy camping trip that made my kids vow they'd never camp again and led hubby to abandon bait fishing in favor of fly rods. LOL

Swing by Everybody Needs A Little Romance (http://everybodyneedsalittleromance.com) and share your experiences with the great outdoors. Have a laugh. Or just leave a comment so I'm not lonely.

The Daddy Catch Kick-Off

If it's Release Day, there must be a book signing, right? Roxanne St. Claire, one of my all-time favorite people, along with upcoming new author Linda Wright and I celebrated the release of THE DADDY CATCH by selling quite a few books at the Barnes & Noble in W Melbourne, FL last night.

It was great to greet fans like Dave (who always shows up with a list!), see old friends (Joyce, I was so glad to see you!), meet new ones (Hi, Mary!) and visit with family (I have the BEST sister!).

A special thanks to Kaori Suzuki-Fischer, RWA's Book Seller of the Year, who arranged the signing, and to all the Barnes & Noble staff, but especially Steve and Ron and Allie, who made sure every detail was perfect.

Most of all, thanks to good friends like Lara Santiago (l) and Rachel Hauck (r). Each gifted authors, their encouragement and support saw me through years of rejection. It sure is fun to celebrate with you today!

This Saturday, June 11th, I'll be signing copies of THE DADDY CATCH from 1-3 PM at The Fly Fisherman in Titusville. Stop on by. There'll be loads of fun activities, including fly tying demonstrations and a terrific display of boats. You might even pick up a book or two.

It's Release Day!

Today THE DADDY CATCH officially hits the shelves in book stores. To celebrate, I've sent all the workmen home. For the first time in for-evah, no jack hammers, no nail guns, no "Oh, fiddle-de-sticks!" ringing out through the house when someone hammers their thumb instead of a nail. Instead, there's peace and quiet at my house.

It reminds me of a calm day on the water. Like the ones Jess and Dan experience in THE DADDY CATCH. Dan Hamilton is a foster care success story whose wildest dreams are within reach when he's asked to join in building a medical center on Florida's east coast. Widowed Jessica Cofer wants little more than to help her young son grow into an honest man and preserve the natural beauty of Phelps Cove.

But when Dan costs her little boy the catch of a lifetime, Jess seriously considers stranding the interloper in the Cove where mosquitoes will carry him off… if the panthers don't get him first.
