Blah, Blah, Blah Writers’ Group

I must give huge props and thanks to my writers’ group. Today we held an all day writers’ retreat at the Lexington Writer’s Room. The Writer’s Room is a gem—a space in downtown Lexington for writers to come together to write, to get away, to be surrounded by like-minded folks who tend to get lost in the world of words.

Blah, Blah, Blah was started three and half years ago. Meetings are held twice per month, with the focus being on candid feedback to help everyone grow. It’s a great support system, and following everyone’s writing journey—and dreams—is a lot of fun. Today’s event took some coordination—I must thank the organizers for making it a great day! If anyone reading this is in the area and interested in joining Blah, Blah, Blah, please contact me.

He’s a young US Senate candidate. She’s a consultant he could do without.

I”m putting the finishing touches on a contemporary romance and very much like the way it’s coming together.

Set in Kentucky, Bennett Clay is a young state senator with his sights set on serving in our nation’s capital. He’s determined to run his campaign his way, without the influence of his uncle, who currently holds the seat. Yet when Caroline Langford enters his orbit—recommended by his uncle, of course—his world turns upside down.

Caroline will find a way to pull Bennett up in the polls. It’s what she does, after all. But the last thing she wants is to be the consultant who falls in love with the candidate. She has career aspirations that won’t come true if she spends any more time in the Bluegrass State.

Caroline learns that Clay family secrets run deep. Can Bennett trust her with the truth? And will Caroline have to choose between her heart and her career?

I can’t wait to get this one out on submission!
