Pay it forward.

GRAVY

  • My first novel started with a mole. Yes, a MOLE - a freckle, a birthmark, whatever you want to call it.
  • I was at the pool with my daughter getting ignored by our swim instructor when a lifeguard with a particularly ripped abdomen walked by. He stopped to flirt with one of the female lifeguards and my eyes flew directly to an adorable mole on the top can of his six-pack.
  • "How cute!" I thought (among other things). "He looks like a character in a romance novel!"
  • So I went home and started writing fiction for the first time. That was over a year ago and I still haven't been able to stop. GRAVY is the story of a suburban housewife who wants another baby, but gets a man with a mole instead.
  • GRAVY is now available on Kindle and Nook!

I'll delurk and say hello. I used to have a personal blog until, well, let's just say I forgot to check the "autorenew" box with the domain name, so you can find me on twitter @CaleeL at http://jesuslovestrees.com - but only if you promise to fight about religion and gun control.

I love your writing here and when that book of yours gets published, it will be the 1st romance novel I have ever read.

Melissa

Am I delurking? Have I really never commented here?? Versionofme on Twitter (we share a favorite line in that Anya Marina cover), and now I will friend you on FB, because I just can't get enough of social media. And also because you told me to.

andrea

I comment occasionally, but will come out today as a full fledged fan. I'll friend you on FB as well although like you, I try to avoid b/c of the inevitable time suck each and every visit involves.

Christy @ Jinxyisms

Happy de-lurking day!

Jennie

I'm one of your biggest fans, you should know, and I'll request your Facebook BFF-ship immediately :)

jen

mamajen4 on Twitter and Jennifer Pomerantz Minson on FB. My only website is my Tupperware sales site my.tupperware.com/mugsysgirl Discount on your first order!

Becky

Hi! I've been reading you for a couple years now, but I'm not much of a commenter. I love your blog - especially your candid writing style. And you got me & my husband hooked on that awesome Cashew Chicken recipe, so thanks!

K.C.

I have also been reading your blog for a couple of years now but I think my only comment was for last years delurking day. Your blog is one of my favorites so in honor of delurking day, I thought the least I could do is say hi and that your writing is great. Thanks!

Jamie

Delurking today (though I do sometimes comment).

And I'll find you on Facebook, we should be FB friends at least, we're practically neighbors, ok, I'm in Portland, so maybe 20 miles away, but I do get up there occasionally, love Cafe Sip'n'Play, maybe I'll see you there sometime!

hillary

Hi! I think I've commented at least once, but now I am officially delurking in honor of the day.

Since you asked, I'm on Twitter as hillary80.

Sally

Yes, we should be FB friends! You have my e-mail. :)

Jennifer

Ok - my first ever comment on a blog that is not my sister's: (http://www.alotofloves.com/ - a plug because I think you might like it...you have a bit in common, plus she is awesome.)

I have been reading your blog almost as long as I have been reading blogs. Also, I often use your recipes to great success. For that I thank you very much and figure I owe you the courtesy of a delurking.

I am Canadian (Vancouver to the North!). I am also a lawyer and have sympathized with David's latest job woes. We are a bit at odds re the gun thing, but no matter, I love your blog and will continue reading (and stealing your recipes..!) Thanks, Amanda.

Bonne chance on your exam!

laura

Found your blog 2 years ago and have been a fan ever since and friday 15th will be my 2 year anniversary for bypass and your blog was A HUGE help in the beginning! thanks laura in nj

JMH

Going to look for you on FB right now. I will send you a friend request since I don't want to leave my info here :)

Jen

Delurking! (Although I think I have commented once or twice.) I've been reading you for a few years now, and I always enjoy your writing. Plus, you have adorable kids, so that's a bonus :)

I don't have a "real" blog, but I'm on Twitter! I'll be following you starting now.

Laura

Hello, I'm here! I comment often, but thought I'd participate anyway.

CJ

Ok, I'll jump on board and delurk as well. Hi! I'm CJ. I found your blog a couple years ago from either BlogHer or Pioneer Woman, can't remember, but I love the way you write. Honest, witty, fresh and little tongue-in-cheek... I'm hooked!

I'm a southern gal who has no blog of her own, but I adore FB for all of it's time-suckage possibilities! I have sent a request. Thanks!

Rayne of Terror

Hi. I've been reading you for five years. I'm @devivo on twitter and I've replied to you many times but you've never responded. Don't add me on FB if your twitter feeds your FB because I hate that. I don't want to read the same thing in both places. I've been pruning down FB "friends" anyway. Anyone that does the twitter -> fb got pruned.

Apparently I'm cranky this afternoon too.

Julie

Delurking in the spirit of the day. Hi, I'm Julie. My mind has completely failed me today, so I can't remember how long I've been reading you, but I know that I've always enjoyed it. You can find me at julaver.blogspot.com or on Twitter @julaver.

Amanda P. Westmont


Rayne of Terror - I added you on Twitter. I DO do that Twitter to Facebook thing because otherwise I literally NEVER update my Facebook page. Does it really bug people? I figure it's one step above asking everyone to become a fan. ;)

Jenn

I don't know if I've ever commented here before... though, if I have to question it, I'd say that's probably a no. I've been reading for at least six months, I'd say.

froggybluesock on twitter, blog at jenncooks.com and the one linked up in the comment :)

Cass

Just started following you on Twitter, I'm "breathe_again" over there.

As for Facebook it definitely is a time sucker. Unfortunately I'm more of a catch up on reading updates person than commenting, I need to get better at that.

Holly

I think I may have delurked when I told you my last name was Woodcock -- dude, that can't be? I've been reading this blog forever! (and loving it just because I love all of your feisty opinions!) Also because I live in Sacramento but my boyfriend and I have been contemplating relocating the the Pac Northwest! (Ugh, Sacramento Summers!) Anyway --
Facebook: Holly Woodcock (obvs)
Twitter: @follow_holly

And I second Calee -- can't wait to read your book! I've never read romance, but since reading how you are so passionate about the genre I've seriously contemplated picking up a few.

Mandi

My twitter is "mandi" (creative!) add me if you like!
