What I love most besides shoes, purses & t-shirts!

Sammie and friend doing American Idol at Madame Tussauds in NYCSo this week I have decided to write about what I love most besides shoes, purses, and t-shirts.

I know you are wondering what could possibly be more wonderful. The answer: Jewelry!!!!!

I love to accessorize with a cute pair of earrings and a nice necklace. My favorite bracelet is the Lucky Brand Jeans bracelet. It is basically a strip of leather that says “Live In Love”. How perfect since Valentines Day is coming up. As well as a cute pair of earrings.

My favorite two pairs of the moment are heart shaped. One pair I own has a stick figure boy and girl and they say “I love you.” The other pair is just hearts a smaller pinker heart inside. I love love. I am not in love though. Sadly. *tear tear*. I AM OUT. And like the bracelet says LIVE IN LOVE!!!

Guest Blogger Stacy Boyd from Harlequin starting February 5

Starting on February 5, I’ll have guest blogger Stacy Boyd who is one of my editors at Harlequin. Please drop by starting on February 5 and talk with Stacy about publishing and of course, Harlequin.

When I was first shopping around DARKNESS CALLS (then titled BORN TO DIE), Stacy and Leslie Wainger were the editors who thought there was still a place left for paranormals. Many of the other houses I tried said that a vampire story would be a tough sell, but Stacy and Leslie believed.

For that — MANY MANY THANKS!! To date, I’ve worked with Stacy on 5 books in THE CALLING series as well as a number of other projects.

So, without further delay, here’s some info on Stacy:

She’s been with Harlequin Enterprises since 2001 and has edited for both Harlequin and Silhouette series romance as well as for the LUNA Books trade imprint. She’s the winner of the 2004 PASIC Editor of Merit award, and her author base consists of many talented writers, including a New York Times bestseller, a Nebula Award winner, RITA nominees and Waldenbooks bestsellers. She currently lives in Hell’s Kitchen, NYC, with her husband and son.
