ETERNAL by Kristi Cook Cover Reveal (Wahoo!)

THERE’S NO HIDING FROM DESTINY…

In the final book of the Winterhaven trilogy, Violet McKenna and her friends find themselves right in the middle of a vampire war.  The stakes have been raised, the danger unavoidable now.  As the Warriors’ senior year draws to a close, not everyone makes it out alive.  Who will be left standing at the end of it all?  Will Aidan be a part of Violet’s future, or is he just a specter of the past?

I forgot to tell you how awesome I am.

Publishers Weekly said about Capers,  Piva fuses romance, family, food, travel, and a touch of mystery in this charming, character-driven story narrated by 17-year-old Hazel…. Hazel’s credible and often funny narration keeps Piva’s novel moving at a bracing clip.”

You thought I forgot, didn't you???

Happy Birthday to the best son ever! Yay SeanPiva*!!! 25 years old!!**


*Yes, that is supposed to be one word. I think it's funny, even if no one else does.

** I think. Math is hard.

I think I am in love with Siri

Fun with Siri

We just got iPhone 5s.

Siri is quite the jokester/minx, isn't she?

The Chef: I love you Siri.
Siri: You are the wind beneath my wings.

The Chef: curse word, curse word, non-curse word, curse word?
Siri: Ask nice, Chef. [She said his name.]
Then! She stopped talking to him!
The Chef: I'm sorry.
Siri: No need to apologize.

The Chef: Happy Kwanzaa.
Siri: I could be wrong, but I believe Kwanzaa was on the 26th.

Because what else is there to do on a Monday night?

That's not aspic, by the way. It's vanilla vodka and Diet Coke. Yum.

I've been a bad blogger.

This, I know. And it makes me have the sad. But I have been thinking about you all, so that's something, right?

Here's the thing: I've been SO BUSY having fun doing fun things and also having fun writing more fun books for you that I left you high-and-dry.Some fun things I did:
  • Not make any resolutions (except to be a better blogger, which I am doing right now!!).
  • Hung out with my son who visited from a far-away land (Missouri).
  • Crocheted a massive blanket that was almost too heavy to lift and a bunch of scarves. (If you didn't get one yet, that doesn't mean you're not going to, although it may be too warm for scarves at that point. Hmmm.)
  • Aaaand...The Chef and I had super fun when we saw these guys on New Year's Eve at a fancy-pants (not really) event. I may have danced a little bit, but not on the dance floor because that would be NUTS!!
This is Brass Attack. I knew all the songs!!! Shocking! Loved them!!
Happy New Year!
