Who am I to worm my way into the blog-o-sphere and make great blog buddies only to leave boring blog posts once a week? No way! This isn't me, not normally. I love to blog, and I love all the wonderful...and I seriously mean WONDERFUL, people I've met so far.
So why, you ask, have I treated my blog like it's a dirty kids room that I would rather shut the door on than clean? Well, I'll tell you...
IT'S THE HOLIDAY SEASON!!!
As I type this I have a Christmas tune buzzing in my head and cookies baking in the background.
I love me some Christmas, and I want my kids to love and cherish it as much as I do, so the hubs and I pack tons of holiday, Christmasy, wintry goodness into each day, which, sadly, has left me giving my blog world the shaft.
So instead of scooting by with random posts about nothing for the next couple of weeks, I'm going to go on Christmas vacation. Meet me back here in the New Year (January 3rd to be more specific), if you will, and we'll get this party started 2012 style!
Until then, if you're searching high and low for a great book to give as a gift this Holiday, I would like to suggest the debut novel of one of my Critter partners (she's been there since I started on this crazy writing journey). She is a seriously excellent writer, and I couldn't be more proud of her and her work.
She's that awesome!
So pick up Fearless if you get a chance.
Tasmyn Vaughn didn't expect much when her dad’s job moved them to a small town in Florida; it was just another new school. But there is more to King than meets the eye, and soon Tasmyn’s ability to hear other’s thoughts is the least of her worries. Entangled in a web of first love, quirky and secretive townsfolk, magic and blood rituals, she discovers the town’s secrets aren’t just bizarre, they’re deadly.
And on that note, I'm out!

Hey, it's the holiday season...give yourself a break. We work so hard.
See you in 2012!
Merry Christmas, Deana! I hope you and your family are enjoying your holiday season. Save the chores for next year!
Everybody deserves a break! Have a great holiday!
Have a Very Merry Christmas, slacker;) No seriously, I'm right there with you with the holiday stuff. Although I have no excuse for slacking the rest of the year-HA! Cheers to the New Year!
I saw a comment you made on a review of Karen Gowen's book House of Diamonds, and came over to meet you.
This is one of the cheeriest blogs in the blogging neighborhood. It brightened my evening.

I have to. What are you gonna do? New Years will get us all back to it.
It is important to spend time with family and make memories. Merry Christmas- I hope you enjoy every minute. Fearless sounds great!
