All right, I know I’ve been super MIA from the blog lately. Blame it on the fact that…well, honestly, I don’t even know what to blame it on. Shorter days? The fact that I’m (trying to begin) writing again? Or the oncoming influx of the holidays AND the meal I, for some reason, decided to cook for my ENTIRE FAMILY on Thanksgiving? Could be a combo of all three. I’ve also been thinking about purses a lot. All of this is very time consuming.
Now, though, I MUST get back into work mode and pull myself together for the final trip of this Book Tour That Never Ends (once it’s over, though, I guess I have to stop calling it that?) Anyway, this weekend I’ll be at the Miami Book Festival, where I’m doing a panel with Colleen Houck and Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguie. That’s Saturday, Nov. 19, 12:30 p.m., Room 1164 (Building 1, 1st Floor). (Thank you, cut and paste!) I am not sure if there is a signing afterwards or not? Will let you know when I hear. Then, I am off to the ALAN conference in Chicago, where I’m attending the annual cocktail party (always a blast and I see so many good friends!) and then speaking Monday at the conference itself. Then it is BACK on a plane and home, hopefully in time to wish my husband a happy birthday before I collapse into bed. And then get up the NEXT day to start thinking about turkey, stuffing and all that stuff.
I will try to blog again this week when I get caught up. HA! I just laughed out loud writing that. But still: will try.
Have a good night, everyone!
Hey, I did the same thing with Thanksgiving…oops. Good luck with the dinner and your trips!!
Haha. You always make me smile when u post. I hope to see you on one of your trips. God bless.
Sounds so fun; wish I could be there! And a helpful hint if you’re making pecan pie for the relatives: use maple syrup instead of corn syrup. It makes it taste AMAZING! Happy (early) holidays!
I hope you for mind, but I will try your suggestion. Thank you!!
I love the holidays. Mainly because I’m able to see my family. The thing I dread about it, is cooking. I mean, yeah, the food tastes great, but it takes forever!!! Thawing the turkey over night, taking about 6 hours to cook it- Im already exhausted. Haha.
luckily, my mother in law and grandmother have offered to cook. YES!!! I mean… Aw, they shouldn’t do that!! Hehe. Next year, I will definitly cook!! No excuses!! Are you with me Sarah?
Happy early Holidays from California.

Hi, Sarah:
I’m so excited to meet you at the ALAN cocktail party Sunday night! I’m introducing you for your presentation at ALAN on Monday am looking forward to touching base.
Remember that Asian restaurants are typically open. I hosted last year and we ended up at Que Nha. And, the upshot, you probably won’t end up hosting the next year!
Can I come?!
hey sarah i was wondering have you ever thought about making a seqeual to lock and key because i wonder what happened to nate and ruby.
