BLURB:
Sydney Smith decides it’s time to move out of her tiny apartment and become a home owner. Blake Smith, no relation and a real hottie, also wants to see the duplex. A mix-up has them viewing it together. They both love the house. There’s also some sparks flying between the two of them, or is Sydney the only one feeling that way? A highly sensual story of fun, home-buying, and more…

Last week an agent requested a full manuscript of my Amish romance, A JOYFUL BREAK. She asked for an exclusive read and said to give her two months. Of course, I hope to hear good news!

Last Friday, my team leader wanted to talk with me. I was afraid I’d scored a test incorrectly or maybe it was a validity paper which is a big deal, but here it was to tell me she recommended me for the high school Louisiana reading project. I had to go to a meeting about it. It will be a small select group of us this time - only 23 and will last a week. It’s extra money because my next assignment was going to be April 26th. This one starts tomorrow and ends April 25th. I’ve worked the last 3 weeks on the Washington project so my only day off was today.

I haven’t been around because I started a scoring project on March 26th. It’s a 3 week high school reading project. It was nice getting my paycheck yesterday for the first week of work. While raising our six children, the only outside job I did was some marketing surveys plus did substitute teaching one year. I make more from my scoring job than I ever did from subbing, and I didn’t care for filling in for absent teachers. Scoring projects start in March and usually end in July or August. Then there are a few small projects in November and December. I’m not going to do too many projects, because I’ll be babysitting for our new grandson. Once you commit to a scoring project, you do it the whole time until it’s finished. It’s a seasonal job and they have deadlines to meet. I’m hoping to make enough money to remodel our kitchen. We will do the work ourselves. I wish we could just hire someone to do it. I’d love to go to the beach for a week, too, if possible.

I haven’t had time to write but hoping to get a publisher this year for my Amish romance. Congratulations to Maureen Emmons of Pennsylvania for winning a copy of my A CHRISTMAS GIFT! I’m sending it to her this morning. She participated in the LASR March Contest!

Hope everyone has a blessed and joyful Easter!
