Happy Valentine’s Day, dear blog readers!
For twas not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart
Twas not my lips you kissed
But my soul
~Judy Garland
I put a lot of time into a post I’d written a long time ago, and I still like that post for Valentine’s Day. It’s titled Alone on Valentine’s Day?
Why would a romance writer want to write about being alone on Valentine’s Day? I believe in Happily-Ever-After, Love at First Sight, and being Swept off my Feet, and I have been, and have experienced, each of these. I continue this in my writing…live for it, in fact. ❤ Many are alone on Valentine’s day for many different reasons, so why not write about being alone on this day for lovers?
Many of you long time followers have read the post I’m directing you to, but many of you are new, so if you’d like to read my suggestions for being alone on Valentine’s Day, please enjoy at the following link:
Many of you have already read the interview I did for Valentine’s Day with the legendary cover model, C.J. Hollenback. If you’re new, you can read it yourself right HERE.
Author note:
I’m considering asking another cover model for an interview. He’s on an upcoming book. It all depends on his time and my time, so don’t hold me to this. He’s too adorable and friendly not to be introduced. Plus, he was a great inspiration for my Randy in Lassoing the Last Dance. I hope you think so when I do a cover reveal.
Last but certainly not least:
You have to try this cake by Suzanne at A Pug In The Kitchen Food Blog. Her recipes send my brain into a lip-licking tizzy! The photographs of her dishes alone make my mouth water. Image used with permission from Suzanne. And, you’ll see why her blog is called what it is called:

A sweet post, Mary, and I’m not just talking about Suzanne’s chocolate cake. I’m looking forward to your cover model interview. My covers don’t have that personal touch, but it sounds like fun. Happy Valentine’s Day. ❤

Happy Valentine’s Day, Diana! I tend to get involved with the cover models who are on my books. Involved? LOL, I mean business-like-involved. I guess it’s because I can, I don’t know. One did an interview with me! 🙂 C.J. never was on a cover. I tried for my very first and second book, but it was out of my hands. Thank you for visiting.
