What a whirlwind since the release of Beaver Tales: Stories from Below the Belt!  Talk about trains,  planes and automobiles!

I didn’t want to go a week without sharing my adventures with you. Since Beaver Tales hit the stands, I arrived home from my secret destination of sunshine after much needed R&R. Within twenty-four hours I hit the road to attend a super successful book signing event at Athleta, King of Prussia, PA followed by a jaunt to New York City to finalize upcoming Beaver Tales events.  So much for rest and relaxation!

This week, I’m heading to Boston for yet another great meet-n-greet book signing at the beautiful Acote Salon on Newbury Street.  Swing by tomorrow from 5:00PM to 8:00PM for a taste of Prosecco, light bites and some cheeky conversation with me and the beauty stylists of Acote Salon.

It has been fantastic to hear your thoughts after reading the book. I’ve enjoyed listening to what “flipped your skirt” and made you laugh.  Please keep sharing with me and post your reviews on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Don’t miss my latest adventures, just follow me on Twitter and Facebook!

I am truly blessed.  After two years of writing, rewriting and editing, my dreams came true yesterday with the release of my debut novel, Beaver Tales:  Stories from Below the Belt.  This book was a labor of love from the moment I scribed my first journal entry.  From that point on, a vision, guided by a passion for writing, was transformed into a story which then became reality.

The first time I saw my book in print I smiled as tears rolled down my cheeks.  I held it in my hands, hugged it, and ran my fingers over the cover to make sure it was real. My emotions were mixed as I flipped through the pages. There was definitely a huge sense of accomplishment mirrored by nerves and uncertainty. I wouldn’t be real if that wasn’t true. Tuesday, however, was different.  There were no tears and uncertainty but rather ear to ear smiles with a strong sense of achievement.  I was, and still am, simply humbled and happy to have this adventure of a lifetime.  Humbled, because I will always remember who I am, where I came from, and who got me here, and happy because I achieved one of my lifelong dreams.

It amazes me to this day that my journey began as gossip at happy hour, followed by right and left hand turns and even detours. But it was my biggest fans; my family and friends and a chance meeting with a filmmaker who pushed me to publish these cheeky tales. Now, as I write this blog, it’s hard to believe Beaver Tales is a full bound jacket covered book!  So take a leap of faith, follow your passion, and live your dream. You can accomplish anything if you are surrounded by great people.

While my calendar is filling up with media appearances and book signings, I choose to celebrate the launch of Beaver Tales away from my chaotic world.  That’s why I’m writing this blog a few days after, from 30,000 feet in the sky in route to home.  My little respite allowed me to embrace the moment and reflect on those in my life who supported me through it all.  There are too many people to thank for all their love and encouragement – You know who you are and you know I could not have done this without you!

Thank you, I love you!

Now that is a header, isn’t it?  It is a short and sweet headline to a fantastic week and can you believe Beaver Tales:  Stories from Below the Belt is released next week!  Sorry, sometimes my excitement gets the best of me.

Now back to those ladies!  I have to say I have some of the greatest friends in the world.  My tennis pals have been so supportive.  So supportive in fact, they put together a book signing filled with champagne, chocolate and love.  Check out some of the pictures on Facebook, I think everyone has a smile on their face and maybe a few blush cheeks after my reading.  A special thanks to Amy and Karen for organizing.  You all ROCK.

I mentioned last week what does C.C. and the People’s Paper have in common??  Well the answer is quite simple.  Their fantastic columnist, Jenice Armstrong invited moi to their Sexy Singles Cocktail Party.  Boy oh boy was the place packed with great looking people.  I wouldn’t have minded seeing some of these folks behind spa doors!  Just another great night in the life of C.C.  Trust me, I’m not complaining.

While this week was a blast, next week is bound to be even better. This time next week Beaver Tales: Stories from Below the Belt will be RELEASED!!  Years of work finally coming to fruition.  I’m doing something very very special for May 10^th, but you should know by now, you are going to have to wait to find out!

Until then…
