Here’s a quick update on what I’ve been up to, blog-wise, this week:

Nine Naughty Novelists invited Rachel and I to guest post this week, and I wrote about promotion and how to get started without becoming overwhelmed.

Today I was over at Silken Sheets and Seduction for my regular bimonthly post (I post on the first and third Saturdays there). Since it’s my husband’s birthday this week, and we’re going away for this weekend once he gets up and around, I decided to share some of my thoughts about mini-vacation planning. It’s my opinion that mini-vacations are necessary parts of serenity, and don’t necessarily need to cost money. It’s all in how we think about it. “5 Tips for Planning a Mini-Vacation.”

Enjoy!
