A peek at my calendar says….

December 29, 2011

Have you noticed?  2012 is sneaking up on us, just a couple of days away.  So in the spirit of starting anew, I thought I'd share my goals for the new year.                        1) Finish Book 2 in first few weeks of January.  Really, this isn't a goal so much as a requirement, since it's due just weeks afterward, but still...I like to see it there so I'll feel all good when I check it off. 2) Order promo materials for REASON in first week of January and figure out what I'm doing for local advertising.   Tomorrow I'll talk about just how outside my box that is. *shiver* 3) Write 20 guest ...

Real or Fake?

December 19, 2011

That is the question!! I grew up with artificial trees because my brother had allergies, and the second I moved out (okay maybe not the very second...since it was July) I started getting real Christmas trees.   I love a real tree.  Love the smell and the feel of them.  Love that it's different every year.  My daughter started naming them each year. Then I remarried into a "Artificial Tree Family".  *insert dramatic music here*     This was difficult for me.  He had very strong feelings about his tree, that he spent hours wiring up with lights...himself...so that he didn't have to do ...

Not the normal girl…

October 11, 2011

I have a very close friend who loves to go to the grocery store.  She loves to cook, and therefore browses the store with love, looking for that next culinary adventure.  I have more than a few friends like that, actually. I do love to eat, and I do love amazing food.  But it doesn't come from me.  I dig out a post it note with absolute disgust when the fridge gets pathetically skinny, knowing that I need to go to that place with the carts and the aisles and the endless cans and packages.   I go out of guilt, because you can only stop for Sonic and Dairy Queen so many times before your family ...

Revisions, dreams, and potato chips

September 20, 2011

Finished editor revisions this weekend...YAY!!!!  HAPPY DANCE!  Well...maybe it's too soon for the happy dance.  I finished them, I sent them, with a note that I took out all 543 "glances" and 88 "eyerolls'.  Ok, that's an exaggeration, but truly, once I did a search on those, it was scary.  Editor Extraordinaire (EE) thought so too, as she pointed out many of them (hence, my curiosity to search).  But as I was saying, the revisions may be sent, but until EE does the sign of the cross on them, they aren't final. And I'm playing with a new character the last few days.  From a distance...she ... Read More

    The Reason is You review by Kathryn Magendie

    “A spot-on debut novel, Sharla Lovelace’s prose is smart, witty, funny, with a hot sexy edge that makes The Reason Is You an oh-so-tantalizing romantic journey…the line between our world and the mystical one is deliciously blurred.” ~ Kathryn Magendie, author of Tender Graces, Secret Graces, Family Graces, Sweetie

    The Reason is You review by Therese Walsh

    “The Reason Is You is a romantic story about love, ghosts, and second chances.  But under all of that, it’s a story about redemption.  This novel is the definition of a page-turner.” ~ Therese Walsh, author of The Last Will of Moira Leahy

    Before and Ever Since review by Romantic Times Book Reviews

    "Lovelace does a great job of bridging the past with the present. The characters are smart, funny and well rounded. It is refreshing to see a female character, with obvious vulnerabilities, exhibit such strength in situations that would make other women cringe." ~Romantic Times Book Reviews

    Before and Ever Since review by Joyfully Reviewed

    "Before And Ever Since is a beautifully crafted, thought provoking story that engaged me from the first few words. The chemistry between Emily and Ben was sizzling hot, and I was quite enamored of these two attempting to work things out…that I could NOT put this story down until I finished it."  ~ Joyfully Reviewed, November 2012 Recommended Read
