Great review for On the Silver Edge of Time

Got a great review for the Pen and Pagan Book Review blog for On the Silver Edge of Time.  Betty wrote:
"This book is a page turner. 
Have you ever dreamed of being able to travel to a different time?  This book will definitely allow you to do that. ...There are many twists and turns that occur throughout the story. Just when you think that you have things figured out, Ms. Gold throws a curve ball. All of the characters interact very well. 
You can find the rest of the review at the Pen and Pagan.
For those that have read and enjoyed this story, I just recently submitted the sequel for consideration. Keep your fingers crossed!

A day late almost but I met my goal!!!

I finished and submitted the sequel to On the Silver Edge of Time!!! Whoop!

I'm only an hour and fifteen minutes past my goal time but I can live with that. DH was away tonight so it gave me the day to wrap up the project, polish and get that sucker off to my editor.

I tried something different. Three wonderful ladies agreed to be beta readers for this one. I've already heard back from one and applied her comments. I figure the other two will send me comments shortly, but I can make those changes after the manuscript has been contracted so yeah - I'm jumping for joy right now to have another one finished and on it's way to my editor.

Happy New Year everyone.

I met Torin today!

Well I sorta met Torin today. Torin is the ancient Irish warrior from my current wip(works in progress) and the hero of my story. Anyway, I've been madly writing this one as it's a sequel to On the Sliver Edge of Time and I really, really love this story.  Time travel just fascinates me. The whole idea of what would we do with the knowledge we have if we had an opportunity to go back in time is just so tantalizing. Or how would we survive in an advanced society if we went forward in time?

Anyway, I digress. I had to take my car in for an inspection sticker. It was a bit overdue. (Only a bit.) I go in to sign the forms and hand over my key when one of the grease monkies came into the shop. Oh my. I couldn't stop staring. He was the spitting image of my vision of Torin. Stocky build, Blue-green eyes, and red, wavy hair. Square face with a strong nose. And he had an intensity about him that was just perfect. And yes, I only stared. I couldn't quite find the words to tell him he was the hero in one of my romances.

That's okay. I know where he works. I'm thinking I'll need the oil changed soon.

Going to Scandinavia!

Just wanted to let everyone know that I am working on a sequel to my Viking time-travel but I'm planning a trip to Scandinavia soon so I've been dragging me feet on the book, knowing I'll be very inspired by this opportunity. I can't wait to surround myself with sights, sounds and smells of the birthplace of the people I'm trying to write about. Too fun. I'll get to see a little of Sweden, Norway and Denmark.

Just a personal note, I do hope to become more active on loops and such again this summer. I miss chatting with folks but man, this second job is really keeping me busy. I love it though. I just have to learn to balance better.
