A Valentine to Tease Publishing who is closing their doors graciously. They are paying their authors and returning rights. I will miss Tonya, Tabbitha, Stella, Gail, and Tim. I hope your new endeavors are grand, and thank you for my start in the romance book world.
A Valentine to Soul Mate Publishing who is publishing my newest romance novel. A Valentine to Debby and Cheryl. Cheryl is my editor and I’m glad she is. The goal is to really make the new novel shine. It’s all about Vampire David Hilliard’s father Max. I’m in 2nd edits as we speak. I’m so excited about the new group of authors I am joining at Soul Mate.
A Valentine to my family, friends and my colleagues at my day job. Stay warm and safe during the blizzard.
A Valentine to Arisia. Arisia is my home convention. It’s dedicated to science fiction and fantasy. I loved it, even though I got sick there and I’m still sick and recovering. Arisia is always worth it.
A special Valentine to the passionate crew of Nights of Passion, especially Gerri Brousseau who jumps in when I’m not able.
A BIG GIANT Valentine to our wonderful readers! To celebrate the 4th birthday (or anniversary) of Nights of Passion blog, there will be a grand party with a bunch of giveaways on Feb. 14th, right here. Be sure to join us that day and join the fun.

Awww hugs Susan. That recipe sounds good. I just made a huge pot of chili. It’s bubbling on the stove and smells yummy. Hope you and your family are safe in this snow.

I didn’t realise Tease was closing but I echo the appreciation for the classy way they are bowing out. Currently dealing with two headache situations with publishers who won’t let go (-_-). Irksome! I didn’t know about the party on Thursday! Sounds like fun.
