Hello!
I will be taking the next few weeks and putting the website under construction. I hope to still post (more than I have before!) and have a new look coming soon, along with something truly inspiring or at least not so boring to say in these blog posts :)
And now I'm off to NJRW! So excited to go to a conference again. It's been a little while. I had to dust off my fancy shoes.

SLACKER!
Honestly, I had no idea it has been four weeks, Ridunkulous! All I have to say is that I have been writing my poor little hands off. 18K in 6 days for an anthology I would dearly love to get picked up for. It's superheroes and I am having a blast being all dark and angsty and stuff and having a real honest to goodness bad guy! YAY!
In other news, I need to figureout something to write about in these things as I am boring myself and tend to post thoughts over at Facebook. But since this is supposed to be my website, that's not cutting it. Ideas are welcome!

RULEBREAKER
So I almost never win anything. But I did win a very cool book called RULEBREAKER from the fabulous Natalie Damschroder's blog contest. Cathy Pegau is the author and she sent me the book immediately with a very nice thank you for entering. After downloading it to my NOOK, I opened that baby up and got SUCKED IN!!!! Holy cow and thank goodness I had nothing else to do :) The action was great, the mystery fabulous, the world magnificent and the romance was very well done. If you read the blurb you will see that the romance is between two women. At first I was not sure about this since I had never read one of those beofre, but she did such a great job and isn't love just love? So run out and buy this (or sit in your comfy pants and let your fingers do the clicking) Here are some links for you to get you started...

Music
You know, music has been a part of my life since I was little - apparently I even went to an Aerosmith concert when I was still in utero. My mom says I had rhythm back then though you can't always believe her when she says I kicked her in the ribs to the time of Dream On. In talking with my mother on the phone right now, here is another piece of trivia - I went around singing Cocaine by Eric Clapton at the age of about 2 and Janie's Crying by Van Halen. I rock!
Anyway, I also used to take voice lessons and sang Italian Opera, doing it justice by making my ninth grade recital goers cry though they did not understand the words. And the list goes on... Topped by a very rare recording of me singing The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow to my grandfather and thinking that Islands in the Stream by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton was actually I Was In The Street, That Was Where I was. This is gold, people!
All that to say that my Brother who calls himself Shine - though my mom did not actually go that far off field with first names after coming up with Misty from a Led Zep song - has come out with two new songs and a redo of an older one. Take a listen and find him online to show your appreciation! Click here to get the link, kiddies!

A bit of a recap
So, it's been over a week and so much has happened, I thought I would recap :)
Tuesday 8/9 - car accident, ugh! Not at fault thank you very much. Then much fun and love as I got to see JASON MANNS!!!!!! in NY with my roadtrip epic bitches. SO MUCH FUN! Love me some Jason, but also just the very experience of eight hours of car trip with nary a moment of silence :) Go Megan with her mad NY driving skills!
Wednesday 8/10 - got a rental Caddy - do they think I'm high maintenance? Drop my poor baby van at the autobody and hope I will see it again. Work in the evening when I don't normally work
Thursday 8/11 - worked when I never work
Friday 8/12 - worked again in the evening when I do not usually work (I'm sensing a pattern).
Saturday 8/13 - Get ready for the beach!!!!!
Sunday 8/14 - GO TO THE BEACH!!!!! We left at o'dark thirty since the child thinks that is great fun then got stuck in torrential rain. But it was a blast!
Through to today stayed at the beach and it was wonderful though I didn't get to do all the stuff I normally do since I am a hurting puppy (reference car accident on 8/9) but it's all good.
And now I am back home and happy for it. My child stayed at the beach for a little while longer and yours truly is going to take advantage of that time to get this revise and resubmit finished and back to the publlisher. I hope they LOVE it!
Also, one more thing, thank you to all the people who voted for Strings Attached as favorite sweetheart review over at The Romacne Studio! I won and now my book is on the front page of their website. YAY!
That's it for now. I hope I will have some good progress to report after this weekend and then on to a new project. I'm going to be mentored for the month of September to see if I can take my game to the next level. Here's sending positive thoughts out to the universe that it works :)

Requesting Votes...
Following up on the great review I also have a chance to win the Favorite Review of the Week!
I've never done this before so be gentle with me :) Seriously, though, since I got a 5 heart review at The Romance Studio for STRINGS ATTACHED that apparently puts me up for the Favorite 5 Heart Review at their website. If I win I get put up on the main page with links and book cover. If you have time and would like to vote that would be stupendous! Here's the link

THANKS
Misty :)

Great new review
Today I received a really great review for my latest book Strings attached and thought I would share it. I love The Romance Studio! A huge thank you to Camilla for her time and effort and then a big smooshy hug for liking it after reading :) You can read the 5 heart review here!
Needless to say (but I will say it anyway!) I am thrilled. I'm so happy she "got" my story. For as much as I call what I write broad fiction, I really like to think of it as people falling in love while life happens all around them. So thank you again, Camilla :)
In other news, I am nearly done with a rewrite that I was asked to revise and resubmit and will hopefully have news on other books coming out soon.
Stay tuned and stay cool!
