Hello Dear Blogging Friends,
It’s nice to be back. I hope that you have all been having a wonderful June and July and that this post finds you well and happy.
Just in case you’ve been DYING TO KNOW here’s what I’ve been up to during my blogging holiday.
I’ve been preparing guest posts for my crime writers’ series How I Got Published. Kristina Stanley will be featured this Friday and later in the fall Judy Penz Sheluk and Carrie Rubin will talk about their publishing process. Keep a look out for these three fabulous (and need I add, hard working) writers of crime fiction.
I also did an interview for Heather Debreceni’s upcoming Empowered Divorce Summit on Dating. The interview will be aired on Sept. 8 and you can reserve your spot at www.empowereddivorcesummit.com More to come on this.
Most of my time has been spent editing Café Paradise, the second in a four novella series following Getting To Mr. Right. In Café Paradise the focus is on Suzy Paradise and her struggles to fulfill a life time dream.The hardest battles are the ones we wage inside.
I hope to have Café Paradise on Kindle by the end of August.
It hasn’t been all work and no play though.
I’m truly looking forward to catching up on your blogs
Welcome back, Carol! 🙂
Thanks…:)
Lovely to see you back, Carol!
Oh, thank you Margot, and I’m anxious to see what you’ve been sleuthing. 🙂
Glad to hear you’ve had time for both work and play! And thank you for the mention. Fall is coming far too quickly it seems!

Looking forward to your Crime Writers series.
This looks like a well rested yet successful writer, Carol. Hope to get a chance to stay on better touch. Take care and looking forward to reading your guests and know you are the hostess with the mostest.” 🙂
Thanks for being here, Robin. Taking a break from blogging allowed me to focus on other things and to re-evaluate my reasons for blogging. One of the main reasons is contact with bloggers like you! 🙂
I enjoyed your post when I first started and then, sometimes like good friends do, we headed off into different directions, Carol. Glad to have you beside me on the same path. . . Thanks for being here, too.
Welcome back!
Thanks, Anneli. Anxious to read what you’ve been up to.
Carol!!! Lovely to see you back my darling. That is fabulous the break has been so creative for you too.
Thanks, Shehanne. Hope all has been well with you and the little hammies and that you all had a great summer so far!
Well that doesn’t sound like a holiday, Carol – much work done…but them when one loves the work one does it’s a holiday! Cheers for you!
You’re absolutely right. A holiday for me is going away to the sea or visiting a new country.
Thanks for commenting. 🙂
Welcome back Carol!
Thanks! 🙂
You’re welcome
Welcome back Carol. You sound refreshed! 😊
Thanks, Val. I feel refreshed. 🙂
Welcome back!
Thanks…Nice of you to stop by! 🙂
Welcome back Carol. I’m so glad you had a productive time out. You are a busy girl. Good for you. I look forward to reading your new series and your upcoming interviews. You may find me scarce for another week myself; unfortunately not fun stuff, and my newest book had to be put on the back burner as well, but September I shall breathe again. 🙂 ❤
It’s good to be back but it was also good to draw away from blogging for awhile. You know how overwhelming it can be. I know that you’re dealing with un-fun stuff and understand you being scare here. We only have so many hours, so much energy and other aspects of our lives that need tending to. I’m eager to read your new book. I’m sure it’s going to be both informative and fun to read. Thanks, Debby, for being here. 🙂
Thanks for the encouragement Carol. So nice to have you back in the sphere. 🙂
Carol, thanks for hosting me. I’m honored to be on your list with such prestigious company as Judy Penz Sheluk and Carrie Rubin. You’re awesome to host this series.
Thanks, Kristina. You amaze me with your passion for your books. 🙂
I grew up reading with my parents and it stuck with me. Sometimes 5 of us would sit on one couch, all squished together, and read. There’s just nothing better.
Thanks for the callout Carol! I am really looking forward to being back on your blog this fall. And I have you visiting mine on Sept. 24th!
I’m really pleased to feature you, Judy. I just downloaded The Hanged Man’s Noose and am eager to continue reading it. (I was hooked from the beginning from the go inside feature of your book). 🙂
Thank you Carol! I hope you enjoy it.
Nice to see you again Carol, you’ve done a lot during your holiday, fantastic! Amazing photos.
Thanks! Glad to be back. Being inspired by your words, photos and music.
So glad you’re back and it sounds like you have a great lineup planned for us. Can’t wait to read every word. Welcome back. I missed you.
So sweet of you to say. I also missed you. 🙂
Welcome back. Just took a blog break myself – tied the knot- and starting to catch up as well. Sounds like your break was very busy! Look forward to reading your new offerings.
Welcome back as well and congratulations on tying the knot. I’m looking forward to catching up as well. 🙂
Hi Carol, I noticed your new book, Cafe Paradise, is out. I just bought it and it’s on my kindle waiting to be read. Here’s where I bought it from in case you track sales… http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0148S3UTC/?tag=a_fwd-20
Thanks, Kristina. I appreciate it. Very different from a thriller, for sure, but I hope you’ll like it and find it entertaining. 🙂
I’m sure I’ll love it, and I won’t forget to review it too!
🙂
