We Interrupt This Writing Session to Bring You.....CAKE!!!

All right, I must confess.....I'm am fairly burned out on all things writing related at the moment :-) I've been on a non-stop roller coaster since last year and while it has been an amazing ride, I'm very ready for a nice break. (I'm also aware this will last approximately a day and a half before I start itching to write something again, but with a book due tomorrow and another releasing next month, right now all I want is a nap lol)

Anyhow, I thought I'd share a few pics of something else I like to do. Decorating cakes :D I don't get to do this very often - my husband doesn't like cake (I know, he's totally weird) so I pretty much only make them twice a year for my kids' birthdays. But here are a few I've made.

My son's 6th birthday:

Son's 9th birthday

Son's 5th birthday 

Son's 8th birthday

Stepson's girlfriend's birthday :)

Kids' Spring Parties at school

 Daughter's 8th birthday (and the nail polish bottles in the background are marshmallow and tootsie rolls) :D

Daughter's friend's 10th birthday

And now, back into the writing cave I go :-) Tomorrow, I'll send this baby to my editor and then...I think I might make a celebratory cake :-D

My Life in a Nutshell (with as many Nathan Fillion gifs as I could find) ;-D

I've been sort of crazy slammed with deadlines since sometime late last year. So I've been a little


and


and
(I know he's not Nathan but gotta love some Brendan Fraser too - esp this pic lol)

But a week or so ago, I sent in book 2 of the Blood Blade Sisters trilogy. 


And yesterday, I sent in edits on my other summer release (a zombie fairy tale retelling).




And I don't absolutely have to get started on book 3 of BBS until next week. Which means....I get a little break for a few days! 


Of course, then it will begin again and I'll be all

But until then, I can just chill. Maybe work on a few proposals for a new series I've had in mind for years that I LOVE that makes me feel all


and

though maybe I'll do a little something just for fun, like catch up on my TBR list :-D


So, until next time....
