Novel Fixation

Funny, I had to take a small blog breather yesterday as I struggled to meet a non-fiction deadline. And you know what? I missed you! Yes, yes, it's true (sounds like a cheese-ball love-song lyric but don't worry -- I'm not about to break into song unless someone gives me Bon Jovi).

It's been a little over a month now since I started this blog, and in that time I feel like you're a vital part of my fiction-writing world! Thank you so much for all the lovely comments on my last post and your great suggestions on how to endure the wonderful thing called waiting. They made me laugh and definitely helped.

Since all I can think about these days is The Hating Game, I thought I'd give you a little blurb about the story.

When man-eater Mattie Johns agrees to star on a dating game show to save her ailing recruitment business, she's confident she'll sail through to the end without letting down the perma-guard she's perfected from years of her love 'em and leave 'em dating strategy.

Then, on the first night of the show -- in front of a live audience -- Mattie discovers the other contestants aren't just anonymous strangers. They're her exes, and they're far from happy.

Can Mattie confront her past to get the prize money she so desperately needs, or will her exes finally wreak their long-awaited revenge? And can she overcome the ambitious producer whose career depends on stopping her from making it to the end?

Who will win The Hating Game?

Duh-Duh-DUHHH! (That was music, in case you didn't hear it). I'm obsessed with this! I even dreamed about the game-show last night.

Right, where's my wine again? It's almost 11 am - that's not too early, right?
