We're back from lovely Atlanta, and I'm hard at work on the last House of Night novel, REDEEMED!  See how serious Cammy is about helping me?!

Hope y'all are staying storm-free and semi-cool.  Oklahoma has been a windy, hot mess this summer!

Big Bonnie!

And here is my favorite!  LOVE this one of Big Bonnie and me!  Don't forget to check out the fabulous artist at http://www.dorotakudyba.com

Another of Dorota's pieces!

Miss Mareilyn Monroe is a unicorn!

Awesome artist!

Through my cool horse trainer I found the amazing artist, Dorota Kudyba (www.dorotakudyba.com).  She does equine dream art from photographs.  I commissioned her to do several pieces for me, and I thought you guys would like to see some of them.  Here's the first of Anjo and me.  I asked Dorota to make me a Valkyrie-like warrior.  Ooooh!  What do you guys think?

p.s. Dorota is wonderful to work with, and very reasonably priced.  And it's soooo fun to see her transform your photos!  You guys should definitely check her out!  (It's a great gift idea!)

I wish Jack were here to enjoy the wonderful news this week! 

What do you think he would say to Damien? 

Cammy View at Utica Park

The Tulsa weather is gorgeous, so Cammy, Kristin and I have been luncheon-ing at The Wild Fork, Utica Square. Here's the Cammy View looking towards Starbucks (obviously he's trying to spy fledglings!). XXXOOO PC

REVEALED is finished!

Yea! I turned in REVEALED today! (Release date is October 15th.) I absolutely love how this book developed - it even surprised me! I'm moving directly into the writing of REDEEMED. I'm so caught up in the conclusion of the series that the last two books are flowing unusually well (even at the beginning!). Back to work for me... XXXOOO PC

Claire Bear meets Big Bonnie

Tornadoes gone! (Hopefully for the season.) And the heat is setting in. The ranch is cooler than T-Town so Claire Bear came with me to play with the horses and cool off. Big Bonnie says hi! XXXOOO PC

PC's MAREilyn Monroe!

Yesterday my amazing mare, Anjo, foaled! Please welcome PC's Mareilyn Monroe (Kristin is responsible for the spelling pun!). Mother and mare are happy and healthy - and my horse trainer's 3-legged dog, Hank, is totally in love! XXXOOO PC

Moving into the conclusion...

This weekend is Mayfest in Tulsa - a fabulous downtown gathering of artists, musicians, and food. I was walking around last night and glanced up at the Mayo Hotel. CHECK OUT NEFERET'S PENTHOUSE! Looks creepy! And since I'm working on the conclusion of REVEALED right now, this picture absolutely goes with the mood of the end of the book. Chaos! Death! Destruction! Oooooh! (And I'm sure I caught a glimpse of wings up there! Do you see them???) XXXOOO PC

Ooooh! A Prism Finalist!

I'm so excited to announce that my novella, POSSESSED, which was published in the AFTER MOONRISE duology with my buddy, Gena Showalter, has finaled in the fabulous Prism Award! What a lovely surprise! Winners will be announced at the Romance Writers of America National Convention in Atlanta in July of this year. I haven't been to RWA Nationals in years, but I'm going to try to get enough writing done so that I can get away for that weekend in July! Fun! See you in Hotlanta!
