AWAKENED IS OUT!!!

OMG!!!  The 4 weeks I was told I had to wait until the book is released just turned into 4 days.  I got a call from my editor with the news that Awakened is now available on Amazon.  Soon it will appear on Barnes&Nobles, Borders and Waterstones for UK readers.  Yippeee! 

Should I remove the dust off the pom-poms and start cheering?  Heck no.  Honestly, when I first heard the news, I was like....no, no, no, this ain't hap'ning.  I need the four weeks to get the freaken word out there!!  I need more time!  More than 24 hours in a day!  How many times have we said these words when things are spiraling out of control.  Yep, that's exactly how I felt.

Guess what I'm doing while writing this.  I dare you.

Eating caramel macchiato ice-cream.  Amazing how that kind of decadence makes all the problems disappear.  I know, I know, that won't hold the demons at bay forever, but it sure beats screaming.  And I should be thrilled beyond words...I am.  I am.  Seriously, I...AM.  I'm just a bit overwhelmed right now.

I swore today was the day I'd go back to writing.  I'd ordered the rest of goodies for giveaways...see below.  Ordered more ARCs for bloggers and librarians, and all I needed to do was wait for some of the reviews to come in and call it good.  SIGH.

Sooooo, I'm going to finish the pint of ice-cream while watching The Big Bang Theory.  How's that for a perfect remedy.  Promise me ladies you'll show me some love and spread the word.  k??.
