It sounds like it will be a most enjoyable read. My guilty pleasures are reading and spending way too much time on the computer following author and review blogs. I started following for my job as a librarian and now that I no longer work, I am following even more. I need more time and my poor house needs a good cleaning : )<br /><br />Best wishes for a successful release.

I remember Survivor and what interested me was seeing how different player strategized - some failed and some succeeded, even if they didn't win they outlasted many. <br /><br />My guilty pleasure is food. Though, I try to balance the good with the bad. Plus add in some regular exercise. But, yes food is one thing I like to enjoy :)<br /><br />Congrats, Lori on your book release!<br />Cambonified(at)yahoo(dot)comNahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720440727711737600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-26659495275003246342012-03-27T18:51:09.536-05:002012-03-27T18:51:09.536-05:00Lori: Congrats on the nomination.

Finally, after writing, rewriting, editing, submitting, rejections, I now have a contemporary medical romance out, a paranormal YA, Ghostly Justice, coming out April 14th, and a woman's suspense coming out in June or July. I feel like I have done my own survival game. But at least I am still standing, holding my torch, and have grabbed on to a brass ring. <br />Bev Irwin / Kendra JamesBev Irwin / Kendra Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03271649393020091103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-32207740532402795232012-03-27T09:13:59.705-05:002012-03-27T09:13:59.705-05:00I used to be a die-hard Survivor watcher and I can...I used to be a die-hard Survivor watcher and I can see your analogies perfectly.
