Happy Thoughts Indeed

Please join me in wishing Happy Birthday to Ms. Courtney Milan!
As I’m sure I don’t need to tell you, CM is brilliant in about 314 ways, and 187 of them before breakfast. I’m sure we could solve this whole pesky cost-of-oil nonsense if scientists could just figure out how to harness the power of her brain. And it should go with out saying (*cough* Golden Heart finalist *cough*) that she is an amazingly talented writer. But aside from being one of the smartest people I’ve ever met, she’s also one of the sweetest and most fun to be around. She knows I love her!
This week is a milestone for CM in more ways than one. As many of you know, she has been prevented from querying and submitting her awesome manuscripts up until now, because of her hush-hush Top Sekret job. But that is all about to change, as she emerges from the bunker and reenters the world of daylight and puppies. In other words – Look out, New York! I know we’ll be toasting her success in San Francisco.
Heck, I think I will break out the bubbly early…

Also…
Huzzah to Vixens Elyssa and Maggie, who finaled this week in the Golden Claddaugh!
And congratulations to Manda’s cat Tiny, who is up for “Cutest Cat” this week over at GalleyCat and needs your vote! Srsly, he is the cutest. Don’t let the big publishing houses trounce him with their mass market votes.
Have a great weekend everyone!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CM!!! CONGRATS, ELY & MAGGIE!!! GO GET ‘EM, TINY!!!
Gosh, now I’m out of breath. Tiny really is the cutest. I don’t understand how anyone could vote for the others.
And I am POSITIVE CM is going to take NY by storm. I’m really (hearting) Gareth right now. The name alone is good, but the man is better. LOL!

Happy Birthday, CM! And again, Congrats Maggie and Ely! Tiny was the cutest (I think he was the only kitten, all the others looked like cats).
It is so awesome to see everyone succeeding on all levels. My philosophy is that we can NEVER have too many oustanding authors. Keep it coming ladies!!!!
