AND MORE COOL STUFF!

PERFECT FIT has been moved up by one month! Instead of February 2013, you will be getting Mike and Cara’s story (the beginning of SERENDIPITY’S FINEST SERIES) in JANUARY 2013. Dec. 31st to be exact. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO US!

AND SOME UNCOOL STUFF

I’m going through some health stuff right now, and I want to remind everyone – be aware of your genetics, eat right and EXERCISE just to get the blood flowing. In other words, as writers and readers we are pretty sedentary and it’s up to us to do something about it!

    Genetics can catch up with anyone at any age. I was diagnosed with ITP a few months after my 21st birthday. I pray your health situation isn’t too serious, and I hope you can get it controlled quickly and easily. Sending warm thoughts, and healthy wishes your way.
    As for your book news, I am thrilled for you and your fans, aka me and the rest of the world. Looking forward to the release!

    Genetics are no fun. I inherited the high cholesterol from mom & diabetes from dad. You mentioned having a stress test the other day so I am assuming it’s heart related. I speak from experience, having had a heart attack at age 44, 13 years ago & not genetic, that you will get through this with the best technology medicine has. I have had a number of false positives over the pass few years meaning my 2 stents have been working well for the 13 & 8 years I’ve had them. Relax, take care of yourself and be happy about the series. I look forward to reading the next one. We are here to be your cheerleaders as needed.

    I found out about the Fresh Fiction contest to start entering the first day. You & Lauren Dane are doing a fabulous give away. Thanks. The 13th just happens to be my birthday so I will be sure to enter. I love your books. Looking forward to the new one on Serendipity’s finest. :batteeyes:

    Awesome about Perfect Fit coming out early :cheer: Yah!!!

    You are right about health issues…Kinda sound like me :hugging: when I had to make major changes when diagnosed with :mrgreen: Diabetes. Wow did that change my life and make me make healthy choices. Now I exercise 3 days a week at the pool…an hour of Deep Water Aerobics (gravity is NOT my friend) and 50 minutes (2.5 miles) on the treadmill :domainatrix: . I read on the treadmill, it’s my reward and incentive to keep it up :batteeyes:

    :flowers4you: Get well flowers for you. I try to stay somewhat healthy since I don’t know my family genetics. I was adopted and have no idea what runs in my family. My birth mother was single and 45 and since I came out healthy I assume she was in pretty good shape.

    Carly, as excited as I am about this contest and I’d love to win, I am much more concerned that you take care of yourself so that you’re around a long time to write more books for us. I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, along with your family and friends. My Hubby has 11 stents in his heart now and is doing well. So I know you can get through this too. Hugs :heart:

    very excited about Perfect Fit coming out early. :D Please take care of yourself. I sit all day too and I have to make it a point to move once in awhile. It’s tough getting older.

    Sorry to read about your health issues. :boohoo: My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you all fight together to get better. As I am scheduled for surgery next week (Thursday), I have some idea of what you are going thru. Take care of yourself and keep writing.

    I wish you only the best Carly! I’m still trying to figure out how to get heathly..there are so many things out there I’m not sure what is the right way anymore. I’m starting again as I just had a few weeks of losing people who were close which ended in losing my dear beloved grandmother who was more like my mother to me..Always there to help me out no matter what. We said our final farewells on Wednesday…and like her you are in my prayers. Good Luck to everyone and may you all find your heathly back…I will keep you all in my prayers.
