Good start to the weekend: my daughter is back from uni for six weeks. yay! Never mind the fact that I can’t get to the foot of the stairs for bags, books and general junk or that the bathroom is overflowing with dirty clothes. I am delighted to have her back. We all went Christmas shopping at Touchwood yesterday and returned, knackered but laden with pressies. I think we have nearly done.
Two other good things happened yesterday. I caught up with two writer friends who I haven’t heard from in a while. One is Barbara Hannay, who writes gorgeous, tender, sexy romances for Harlequin. They are set in Australia where she lives, and they were some of the first romances I read when I decided I wanted to write in this genre. Her outback and city heroes are ‘real men’ and I’ll never forget the wonderful Reid McKinnon. Will I, Barb? 
Barbara blogged about Decent Exposure which is really sweet of her.
Also I heard from Judy Jarvie who has had the happy news that she’s expecting a baby. Jude’s well on her way having her first romance published too…
And finally, out of the blue, I ‘met up’ cyber-wise with Louise Allen, the author of Historical and contemporary romance. Thanks Louise for you-know-what and enjoy that Vesuvian moment I know you’re planning right now.
