Re: the comment below - practically the same person? LOL! Yup, yup.
As in, from reading Kate's blog you'd never know this gal writes Sizzling hot stuff, lol! Someone made that remark the other day about my blog - I'm going to change it. I've asked Oopsie Daisy to be in charge of things. :-)
Oh my gosh! Thanks for the news. I have a submission there. I suppose that will slow down the process considerably. I wonder who they have to replace her?
Hey, thanks for your comment on my blog a while ago. I just found I had this moderate comments thingie turned on and a pile of unread comments all stored up.

To the Board of Directors of the Romance Writers of America: It has been brought to our attention, by several of our romance authors, that your organization no longer considers Medallion Press, Inc. a legitimate publisher according to your guidelines.

The reviews rarely rattle me any longer -- except when I spot a truth in a bad one. When that happens, I actually lose sleep. This means I still care about writing. Speaking of reviewers and writers: A couple of days ago, a writer said she was tired of getting white ladies writing reviews of her books. She had an excellent point in the long run: her stories are meant for a particular audience and she wants them to resonate with those people and get more reviews from them. But that first line was just....horribly obnoxious. I say this from my POV of course. Not a white lady who writes reviews -- but as a review grubber.
