Hi everyone!

I was supposed to post yesterday, but got busy with last-day-of-school stuff, so I'm a little late.

Anyway, the Lori Foster event was awesome! Getting up at 4:45 AM to drive down to Ohio was not awesome, but the trip was great. I picked up Barbara Vey and Amy Knupp in Milwaukee, and we (well, I) had fun on the drive. Amy and I were like freaking Lucy and Ethel, so it was a good thing we had Barbara with us, even though I'm pretty sure we scared her to death (the way Amy's driving scared me.) Ahem.

Here's a bit of her account of the trip, plus pics! (I don't have pics because my husband had our only camera on HIS trip.)

And here's some of Barbara's blog account of the trip!

So we got to Cincinnati alive (miracle) and then the weekend went really fast. I met so many awesome people…readers, authors…industry folks. It was great! Oh, and I won a raffle basket! It had beach stuff in it for a picnic, and since we have beaches all around us, I'm sure I'll get some use out of it this summer.

The hotel was nice — the staff was all super friendly. It was quite awesome, really.

So I stayed up too late, ate too much, drank too much (well, not really on that last part…I was actually really good!) and then we had to drive home. Again, it was a good drive — Amy didn't almost kill us, which is a plus.

We did encounter a really bad accident, and then we stopped at KFC and encountered a disturbing situation in which a man was transporting a ragtag pack of mixed-breed dogs on a makeshift trailer in rusty, too-small cages. He told someone he was taking them to sell. Um…there are only two reasons you'd sell that many mixed-breed dogs, and that's either to a medical researcher or as dogfighting bait. I'm just sick that there was really nothing we could do. I still regret not doing something.

Anyway, so I'm home and recovered, and I want to say that if anyone has the chance to go to the event next year, it's totally worth it. The low cost as well as reasonable hotel rates makes it a bargain!

Now…the covers!

Stephanie and I got the German versions of Riding The Storm and Unleashing The Storm! I can't wait to get the copies — the covers are gorgeous. Riding The Storm is the one with the woman, and the one with the man is Unleashing.

Looking forward to seeing what they do with Seduced By The Storm!

And now, one other announcement — check back on Monday, because I'm going to be asking you some questions…because I need some help. And one person who helps me out will win a tote bag AND…an ARC of Sin Undone!

So be sure to check back!

Have a great weekend, everyone!
