Just got back from Whistler yesterday (where many of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games events were held), and the drive was beautiful. <\/p>\n

This time of year it’s kind of rare to have a perfectly clear sunny day up in the mountains, but that’s what we had. We left the snow-capped peaks of Whistler-Blackcomb behind us and drove down the gorgeous Sea To Sky Highway back into Vancouver, passing breathtaking scenery like this:<\/p>\n

And this: <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Unfortunately my hubby didn’t make the trip with us, because he threw out his lower back two hours before we were supposed to leave, so I took the weasels by myself. We had a small, stupid accident on the way home, shattering my rear window which I then had to bang out of the frame and cover with plastic wrap before I could drive the rest of the way home. After a long ordeal with my insurance company and the body shop\/glass people, I learned I won’t have my vehicle back until sometime next week. But, no one was hurt, and that’s the important thing. <\/p>\n

2010 was a busy year for me in terms of releases, and I’ll have two more in 2011. In fact, my Carina Press editor just e-mailed this morning to say I can expect edits for Deadly Descent <\/i>shortly, and I’m both excited and a little nervous. <\/p>\n

It’s been a year since I wrote the story, and I’m sure there will be lots of thing that jump out at me when I look at it this time. It’ll be interesting to see what changes my editor has in mind, and I hope I can make the book even stronger. I’ll inform you about the release date when I hear anything. <\/p>\n

I’m also 75% finished with the draft of my paranormal romantic suspense that I’m tentatively calling The Coven Leader<\/i>, and hope to get that wrapped up in the next month or so. Once that’s done, I’ll need to plot out the second one and dive back into book 2 of the Bagram Special Ops series, Crash and Burn<\/em>. I’ve got lots to do, and this year I’ve got to make sure I’m more disciplined at the keyboard. Hello, New Year’s resolution! *cough*<\/p>\n

Here’s hoping all of you have a happy and healthy New Year, and that 2011 has all sorts of wonderful surprises in store for us all.<\/p>\n
