Thanks to all of you who dropped by our booth at Arizona Artfest to schmooze. The weather was almost as amazing as my readers, each of whom impressed me as being highly intelligent with incredibly good taste in books. You're a great group!

The new 'How To..' book is out (How to Lose a Job), and the third, How to Lose a Client, is at the publisher's. In light of how difficult it was to give birth to the first two books, I may opt for a c-section on the third, (along the lines of 'just knock me out and take it, for gosh sake').
I have heard from many of you who are also fans of the funny mystery genre', and thank you for your insight and input. It means a lot. I love that the group of folks who enjoy authors such as Janet Evanovich, Elizabeth Peters, Joan Hess, and, well, me, is growing.
Again, thanks.

So far so good: A new President, the Miracle on the Hudson, and the Cardinals are going to the Super Bowl, (or as we Arizonans refer to it, 'the Miracle on the Desert').
I've been putting in overtime editing the third Kate WIlliams mystery and (after many delays) reviewing copy for the second book in the series. I am red-eyed and tired, (and cranky, my daughter, who is reading this over my shoulder, just added).
I hope everything is going well for all of you. I would love to hear from you!

Happy New Year! Does anybody remember 2008? I'll have to watch one of those 'year in review' TV shows to refresh my recollection. I do remember, vaguely, that parts of last year were good, but most of it, especially toward the end, sucked. I have great hopes for 2009, though. I believe we're finally at the point where we're looking at each other and thinking Hey. We're in this mess together. Maybe we should start listening to each other.
So here's to you all (picture me holding up a glass of champagne here).
Love,
Becky
