about me
A little bit about me . . . I’m a successful creative type—VP of Marketing-- a writer, and a tea expert. I’m spiritual but not religious. I enjoy reading all types of books (my favorite writers are Frank Herbert, Jane Austen and Christopher Moore). I like eating out at great restaurants, watching good movies, and dancing. I love hiking, riding horses and traveling to old and dusty archeological ruins. I’ve been to China, Egypt, England, Wales, Ireland, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico, and planning a 30 day trek to Bhutan later this year (2009).
I’m looking for a smart, sexy man with a quirky sense of humor, someone I can click with as a friend. That has to come before sex for me. I’d like someone who is emotionally stable, successful in business, and comfortable with a smart, successful woman.

No one could wish for a better life than the one I have had so far, nor of the promise of what lies ahead. As I cross the threshold into another year, I can only thank the fabulous people who have chosen to share it with me. AND enjoy a bit of cake.

I take off tomorrow to China as a delegate of the US Tea Association. We are guests of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce of Foodstuffs (yes there is such a thing) and will be touring tea estates, tea packing companies, and lots of tea houses. I shall be well-tea'd by the time I return. 10 days of tea, tea, tea. We are even escorted to all the tourist areas (Great Wall, Forbidden City, etc.) by Chinese tea companies. Every day a different company hosts our lunches and dinners. It should be fun. ...

Well, I have a NEW agent. If you want to hear some good stories about the ups and down and joys and woes of agents, let me know. It has been an interesting adventure. My OLD agent didn't manage to sell my first book. So I've shelved that one for now. Historically that isn't unusual. Though fiddle-dee-dee, I hate to be usual.

The good news is that I was talking about my current book to the guy who wrote Rambo (now HE's an interesting guy) at a party of editors and agents. Well an agent fro... read more
My agent just sent me a rejection she got from Allison McCabe, Senior Editor at Crown (which is a division of Random House). This was my first choice of publisher, but not my first choice of Editor, who used to work at Crown and is now at Penguin.

Anyway, here's what she said: "I've sat on this for a while, because it is a very close miss. There is much to admire here, and the author has an excellent command of the time period. However, the forward motion is very slow, and I could not g... read more
Those edits I made to my novel have paid off. I now have official representation. Thus the next adventure begins, to get the publishers. My agent (and doesn't that feel good to say) has sold many books to Random House, which is where I would love to be. So everyone cross their fingers.

And for me, it is back to the keyboard to finish up the next novel.
