HILDIE MCQUEEN IS SOOOO MUCH FUN TO BE AROUND. THIS LADY ALWAYS HAS A SMILE ON HER FACE. HER EXUBERANCE COMES OFF IN HER WRITING AS WELL. I FIRST GOT TO MEET HILDIE AT RT IN KC IN MAY AND THEN SEE HER AGAIN AT LORI FOSTER'S READER GETAWAY IN OHIO IN JUNE. SHE IS A SUPER TALENT AND I ADORE HER WRITING. IF YOU HAVEN'T READ HILDIE MCQUEEN, YOU REALLY SHOULD! I STARTED WITH HER AWESOME WESTERNS, WHERE THE FOUR WINDS COLLIDE & WESTBOUND AWAKENING AND CONTINUED WITH HER AMAZING SHADES OF BLUE SERIES. THESE ARE DEFINITELY BOOKS FOR ANYONE WHO LOVES WESTERN ROMANCE.
Hi Kim!
Let's see, my family and I always host a crazy Christmas
party on the 24th of December. Each year
people squeeze into our small home wearing crazy hats to take part in a gift
exchange and a silly play acting game. We always have a blast. A new tradition we just started is to visit
our neighbors and drop off a small gift with a note that reminds them God loves
them. This year is was holiday themed
hand soaps. It's fun and our Chihuahuas
love to go for the short walk.
My favorite Christmas song is Mariah Carey's version of
"All I want for Christmas." Makes me bop along with the music every
time.
This year my favorite gift was the three hardback books my
husband gave me that completes my set of my favorite author, JR Ward's Fallen
Angel series (up to now anyway)
If I could have anything in the world, I would have a
cottage on the shores of Loch Carron in the highlands of Scotland, where I'd
live part time and write.
2014 is going to be a great year. I am attending about six conferences and
traveling to Las Vegas twice! My husband
and I are going to Montana to explore Alder Gulch where my Shades of Blue
series takes place. Maybe I'll find more
inspiration for some cowboys *wink* As
far as writing goes. I will be releasing
two contemporary romances in February, and two sequels to the Shades of Blue
series, Josiah and Mitch's stories.
Lastly around November I am planning to release A Cole Christmas, where
you'll get to visit with the main family again!
My Advice: Resolutions are great, but it's best to just set
goals and that's what I'm doing in 2014.
Setting my goals to be healthier to take each moment at face value and
not keep looking to 'what's next' because while we're waiting for a special
moment to happen, we may have just missed it.
Live for the now and be thankful, always.
Happy 2014 and a big hug and thank you to everyone for
supporting me.
Happy holidays. I've been a big believer of setting goals for the new year. The older I get the list gets a little smaller but I do try my best to do what I can. LOL
ReplyDeleteHad to check your website and saw that you write about my two favorite subjects; cowboys and highlanders. Thanks Kim for the introduction.
Hi Hildie😄 Kimberly is right everyone, Hildie is so much fun to hang out with. I met her at RAGT this June and we all had a great time. At that time Hildie was a new author to me so I bought her book Where the Four Winds Collide and LOVE IT! I highly recommend her books. I've started the Shades of Blue series and I can't wait to read more.
ReplyDeleteHildie is so awesome. I love her Protectors novels. One day, I hope to meet her. :)
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous that you are going to Montana. I've been to Whitefish,MT and I want to go back. It is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have never read any of Hildie's books but they sound awesome. And nothing is better than a cowboy so I will be checking these out. Happy New Year!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first I have heard of this series. It sounds amazing!
ReplyDeleteNo resolutions for me!
Looks really good, would love to read this series. Entering under the name of Virginia
