Fiorella has been a member of Romance Writers of America (RWA) for about ten years, and she actually has a friend who knew all the writers who established the group, but your girl has never been totally happy with the organization. How well she remembers when, in an effort to be clever, RWA showed a clip at a national conference mocking Georgette Heyer.
Everyone but your girl laughed. The idiots didn't know that Heyer was the inventor of historical romance, which many of them were writing and still write. And, by the way, Heyer still sells well too.

Yesterday not one of Fiorella's best days. She lost her cell phone and thus had to get out of her car and go to the door of the local jewelers to claim her wristwatches which had been refitted with new batteries. Even though she wore una mascara, the situation made her nervous. Then when she got home, Sonia Dog whimpered all afternoon as if her heart was breaking, despite being fed, petted, groomed, and (Fio admits it) growled at.

On the other hand, Fiorella was able to plow half-way through Lolly's completed book. She'll spend a couple more hours on it today. Then comes the second round of rewrite....and the third....and maybe a fourth....

Fio will bow to her artistic side today and finally frame a painting she did about twenty years ago from a photograph of herself and Diane Woodhall when they were about five,
Fio is actually still in touch with Diane's sister, Deborah, and her brother, David.

Has anyone heard anything lately about Kim Jung Un? Not sunbathing in your backyard, is he?
