The HEA Cafe

Archive for March, 2007

I’ve just returned from the 10th Epicon Conference, with two trophies in hand. My novels Captain Sinister’s Lady and Pirate’s Price tied for Best Historical Romance in the 2007 Eppie competition.

EPIC is the Electronically Published Internet Connection, an organization for ebook writers and publishers. I was thrilled to have both my books make the finals, but to win the award in a tie against myself blew me away.
Sure, I’m feeling a little schizophrenic, but it does help me answer that question, “Which of your books do you like the best?” The answer is, “The one that won the award.”[g]

For this week’s topic, I’m posting two questions.

First: How many of the HEA Cafe’s published authors juggle a family and work while they write and how do you accomplish it?

Second: If you could read or write anything in the world you wanted to, what would it be?

As always, post your comments below and if you have any suggestions for future topics, post those as well.

She ducked into a confessional and told him her darkest secret.

The trouble is … he’s not a priest.

Meg Reilly is a pregnant widow with a guilty secret: She’s not sure if she really loved her husband. But she can’t tell that to all the well-meaning people who want to give her their sympathy. Finally, she slips into the confessional to bare her soul.

But instead of a priest, the man on the other side of the booth is Craig Stovall, the owner of a local construction business. He’s just there to repair the confessional – but when Meg starts talking, he’s too surprised and tongue-tied to stop her until he hears too much. When they meet later, Craig recognizes Meg from the glimpse he caught as she left – but she has no idea he’s her “priest.”

The more time they spend together, the closer they become – and the closer Craig comes to slipping up and revealing that he’s the one who heard Meg’s confession.
