Tea and Stunt Driving School

Shortly, I’ll be posting some pics of a lovely high tea I had with some Ellora’s Cave authors and editors. My goodness what a fantastic time I had. The tea and…and…bunch of food I don’t remember what it was called, but it sure tasted divine…were almost as wonderful as the company.

I got to hang out with Jen (believe it or not, we rarely get together for other than signings…we’ve both been incredibly busy writing), Donna (Final Line Editor at Ellora’s Cave), Heather (Ellora’s Cave Editor) and authors: Maggie Casper, Beverly Havlir, Sylvia Day and Lena Matthews. What a fun crew we were!

And lucky for me, I get to go see many of them again tomorrow…

Oh, and special thanks to Heather for giving me a copy of Ellora’s Cave Legendary Tails Volume IV in which Ashleigh Raine’s story, Orgasm Fairy is first up. I was particularly glad to see it because the story opens with a bad erotic poetry reading for which I wrote the bad erotic poetry. I don’t know why I have a knack for cringingly bad poetry, but I do. And to see “Fertilizing The Petals Of Bliss” in print–on page one no less!–was truly amazing. I’ll cherish that memory forever.

That was a lovely tea party.

And now on to how Santa (namely Jason) smiled upon me this Christmas…

I’d thought he might’ve had ulterior motives or perhaps too much procrastination, but he swears he was being thoughtful and y’know, I gotta believe him.

Before I get into details, let me first say that in my family, we more often than not put one or two ridiculous things on our Christmas List. I recall my mom asking for a Corvette, myself for a million dollars when I was in high school…stuff we want but would most likely not get for Christmas from someone.

Well, I’ve had “Stunt Driving School” on my list for a couple years now. Yeah, I want it like crazy, but come on…like I’m really gonna find it under the tree on Christmas morning.

And then there’s Jason…who said he’d looked at my list and wondered what of everything on that list would I never, ever expect.

So…I’M GOING TO STUNT DRIVING SCHOOL AND I’M IN UTTER SHOCK AND AMAZEMENT!

I would say that I nearly fell outta my chair when I looked at the certificate, but Jason almost fell out of his chair for me… See, it was a recliner and he didn’t know that until his feet flew up in the air and his eyes were as wide as saucers. I couldn’t stop laughing at the team effort. I bet if I’d been sitting in a chair, I probably would’ve fallen out of it.

I really, really, really, really, really, really wanna be a stunt driver. Even if I only get to do it once, I wanna do it. Even if I only get to go to the class, I wanna do it. I want the experience. I mean, you read my driving stories an entry or two ago… Isn’t it obvious, I dig driving and wanna do more of it…in crazy situations?!?!

Well…I’M GOING TO STUNT DRIVING SCHOOL!!!!!

I dunno when yet. I gotta look at the schedule and stuff, but still. I’m sure there’ll be an entry or two about it here.

And now, I need to get back to work. I’ve got writing to do!!!!!

(and tea to drink!)
