UNELASHED!!

the authors of Romance Unleashed came up with a brilliant idea - Unleash Your Story. Readers and writers can contribute to this fundraiser for Cystic Fibrosis by participating in a read-a-thon or write-a-thon. Take part individually or as a team (maybe your local RWA or online community). Individuals can match their pace with best-selling author Debbie Macomber. The challenge begins September 1 and lasts throughout the month. Register at the CFF web site.

I'm going to be writing One Last Fling. It's outlined to the teeth, so it's time to get the words on the page. If you don't think you'll be able to participate yourself, sponsor me at http://www.cff.org/LWC/JennaBayleyBurke. Every little bit helps those struggling with Cystic Fibrosis.

Beaching it...

A few weekends back I did a book fair in Lincoln City. The weather could not have been better, and neither could the company. My Rose City Romance Writers chaptermates Minnette Meador, Terri Reed and Megan Clark made the event especially fun. (You can't see Megan in the picture, but let's not fault Hubba Bubba...he was holding the princess at the time!)

Feeling The Heat...

I'm at the Pink Heart Society today...feeling the heat...and I will write today. I will!
