I meant to write this as soon as I got home from the Susan Wiggs luncheon, but that 3-hr drive to and from Sacramento just doesn’t get any easier. The crazies have taken over the roads.

But the drive was worth it. Susan Wiggs is as charming as her books are. She gave a fun power-point talk using cartoons to illustrate the “Writer’s Life.” I bought her new book and can’t wait to read it. Maybe the women of the Wine, Women and Words Book Club will be discussing it soon.

I met some new friends at our luncheon table: Sandy and Mary. (Thanks, Mary, for friending me at MySpace.) And I got to visit my old pal Barbs. It was a good day. Barbs sent me some photos from her very cool camera, but I can’t upload them so, here’s the link, if you’re interested. Jan managed to get a really good shot of my double chin. Thanks, Jan. photos

Good news: Rya is much, much better and the travelers are going to reach Detroit today. Yeah!!!

More good news: I typed “The End” for my May book. Now, I plunge into the art pages, so PICTURE PERFECT MOM can have a cover.

Busy, busy, week. Gotta dash.
