First off, thanks for popping in on my Guest Blog segment last Thursday, even though I'm a regular staple here on Mondays. :) Made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside because of the attention. LOL

Okay, I thought I'd ramble a bit today so I've broken it down...

Exciting News

I'm happy to announce that SUNSWEPT is now available through Phaze Publishing! Woohoo! You can go HERE to purchase the trade paperback. Help support eBooks & small press and feel free to spread the word...it really helps keep the little guys alive!

What's on TV

So You Think You Can Dance aka SYTYCD. I totally LOVE LOVE this show. As a kid I was so in love with dancing and even though I didn't pursue it professionally, I enjoy watching talented individuals in this competitive show. I promise that even if you don't like dancing, you'll love all the routines choreographed by award winning choreographers. Last year I was HOOKED! I didn't want the show to end because the dancers who made it to the top were Off da Hook! The official dance challenges aren't happening for another two weeks but this week is the group dances and eliminations for the Top 20 spots. I've already got a handful of favorites in mind from the last two week's auditions. Seriously, don't miss this show on Wednesdays and Thursdays if you can help it!

Call me silly but I'm excited about this new show called The Listener. Here's what NBC has to say about it:

A Gift or a Curse
If you had the ability to hear people's thoughts, would you use it to help yourself or someone else? The Listener premieres Thursday June 4th.

Okay, then there's The Philanthropist coming out on June 24th. Another NBC project that I'm wanting to watch because I love the lead actor James Purefoy. Those Brits are just HOT!

This is an eight-part drama that follows the heroic adventures of Teddy Rist, billionaire playboy-turned-vigilante philanthropist.

FOX has a new show I started watching last week called Mental. I'm pleasantly impressed by it and the cutie Chris Vance who plays Dr. Jack Gallagher. Another import that is quite sexy.

MENTAL is a medical mystery drama featuring Dr. Jack Gallagher, a radically unorthodox psychiatrist who becomes Director of Mental Health Services at a Los Angeles hospital where he takes on patients battling unknown, misunderstood and often misdiagnosed psychiatric conditions. Gallagher delves inside their minds to gain a true understanding of who his patients are, allowing him to uncover what might be the key to their long-term recovery.

Upcoming Events

I don't know about you, but I'm freakin' out that RWA Nationals in Washington DC is just around the corner! I'm already starting to pick out cute outfits and shoes for the week! I'm still debating what to get for the awards ceremony. Should I go snazzy cocktail dress or plain classic? Last year I got to doll up in my black Victorian-esque Betsey Johnson but this year I'm not so sure with the limited suitcase room. I'm SO last minute and might just go for the simple little black dress. I'm sure there will be a smaller turnout this year due to the state of the economy, but I'm hoping to be able to blog my adventures from there. Maybe I'll try to schmooze a bit and get into the top VIP parties. I'm small enough, I can slip in...LOL -- It's always a nice treat to see all my friends and I am certain there will be plenty of conference action. If you're not attending the conference this year, Romance Divas always put together the NOT GOING TO CONFERENCE CONFERENCE. You just have to register for free in the forum and there's plenty of fun, prizes, and learning to be had. Again, all for FREE. How can you beat that?

I really need to consult with Nikki to see what she's already picked out for DC. I'm sure we'll be hanging out and being proactive about trying to add to our list of Guest Bloggers. I'm going to even sneak in some sightseeing time!
