Each week it seems Saturday catches up to me before I know it and, once again, I haven't prepared a blog post. This week has been crazy, my husband was out of town and it was just me and my two boys trying to connect the dots. Between school, homework, orthodontist appointments, a trip to the dentist for my youngest to have two teeth pulled, basketball practice, karate and trying to keep the housework current, cook dinner, wash clothes, do my paralegal job and add in some writing, I've been spinning in circles. The good thing is, I did get a lot of writing completed on Friday, a little over 4,000 words and my book is almost complete! Woohoo! Seeing an end in sight is so awesome! Oh, and to top it all off, I've had my first taste of book piracy! Grrr...
My youngest son won his first basketball game today and scored 4 points for his team! So, their record is now 1-2, not an amazing start to the season, but we're living in the moment and enjoying the win!
My oldest son was invited to an participate in the "Elite Passing Academy" for football quarterbacks and wide receivers. Only "the best" (or so they say) are invited each year to participate, with the groups remaining small, so that individualized one-on-one instruction can be given. And it has a hefty price tag...$500 for 2 hours a week for 4 months. My husband tried to make me feel better by saying that was about $21 an hour for the academy. Didn't help my feelings one bit!
And so that has been my week.
About Us
We are the authors Sierra Wolfe, Tierney O'Malley, Wendy Ely, Alisha Paige, Mark Alders, Kate Davison, and Gracen Miller. Welcome to our blog. We hope to entertain and inform you. This is where we will share our writing journeys and life experiences, and maybe, share a bit of wisdom we pick up along the way. We hope you enjoy it!
About Gracen
Gracen is a hopeless daydreamer masquerading as a "normal" person in southern society. When not writing, she's a full-time basketball/football/guitar mom for her two sons and a devoted wife to her real-life hero-husband. She's addicted to writing, paranormal romance novels and movies, Alabama football and coffee…addictions are not necessarily in order of priority. She is convinced coffee is nectar from the gods and blending coffee and writing together generates the perfect creative merger. Many of her creative worlds are spawned from coffee highs. To learn more about Gracen or to leave her a comment, visit her website at www.gracenmiller.com.

About Kate
I like to read and write just about anything. But I am a sucker for a Happily-Ever-After. I need to know characters ride off into the sunset and all is right in their world. That's why I chose romance instead of another category. HEA's aren't always promised in other genres, though I do read them too.
Most of the time you'll find me at the keyboard, moving between the 5 projects I tackle at a time.

About Alisha
I write paranormal, magic realism, fantasy, erotic and vintage romance. I live in a haunted house built in the 50s and love to drink red wine and eat dark chocolate while sitting in the swing out back. I love to watch my children play in the sandbox while my dogs wrestle on the grass. Does life get any better? It's the simple things in life I cherish.

About Wendy
Writing is an adventure I started at a young age but never took it serious until last year. My focus is on contemporary romance and have two books coming out later this year. Besides writing, I run a childcare, attend college, and am a single mom. Life isn't boring for me!

About Tierney
Hi! My name is Tierney O'Malley, contemporary and paranormal romance author from the beautiful Pacific Northwest. My publishers are Cobblestone Press, Museitup Publishing, eXtasy Books, and Silver Publishing. I'm excited to join this blog and hope to share you fun and meaningful posts. :D Click here or go to my website http://tierneyomalley.com to learn more about my books or contact me. I would love to hear from you.
About Mark
My name is Mark Alders. I live in a house. This house has a street in front of it which is a good thing because if it didn't I wouldn't be able to drive down to the shop and purchase the chocolate I need on a daily basis *giggle* Seriously, I am a mild mannered post office worker by day and an erotic romance writer (mainly male/male) at night. Not much else to say other than, like everyone else, I have bills to pay, a mortgage and family that I love and drive me crazy all at the same time. Oh, and I have a dog, too! See? Average Joe...execpet when I get down and write...then I let my imagination go to places I never knew existed and my characters invade my mind.
About Sierra
I have an Associates Degree in Nursing and work as a traveling nurse. Although, I miss my family and friends back in Missouri, I enjoy meeting new people and love to travel. Of course, I wouldn’t go anywhere without my wonderful daughter and two rotten dogs. Writing has always been a part of my life, but for many years, I thought it was only a hobby. Finally learning that I couldn’t live without writing my beloved stories, I decided to see where it would take me. Who knows where my next adventure will be? Either in nursing or writing, I will continue to look for new and fun places to explore.

I hear you here, mate. Life can be hectic. But it's all good. Enjoy and be healthy.
*hugs*
Mark.
So odd...I posted a comment, but it disappeared into cyberspace I guess. *scratches head*
Anyway, I said something along the lines of this:
I think I enjoy life, but sometimes it goes by at such a blur I'm not sure. LOL Having kids involved in one or two things at a time, really keeps your wheels spinning! BUT most importantly, I wouldn't trade anything in the world for the time I have with my sons and husband!! They mean the world to me!!
You have an active life and I know you are proud of your boys. Congrats on their big win. They say you will stay young if you are active, is this true??? LOL
Sounds like you have a well rounded life and I hope your continue to enjoy all aspects of your life.
