I finished writing Sushi and Suspicions and turned it in! To celebrate, I ate my favorite peach jelly from Minamoto Kichoan ! I was a bit surprised to realize at the end of the book that there wasn’t as much romance as in some of my other books, maybe because there were a lot of characters in this book compared to other romantic suspense novels I’ve written. Sushi and Suspicions will be releasing in June in the multi-author box set Summer Suspicions . Even though it’s a box set, each Christian Romantic Suspense novel in it is a full book, so it’s a great deal! Preorder Summer Suspicions for only 99 cents!
Captain Caffeine said, “There’s a new Transformers ride at Universal Studios down in Los Angeles.”
Me: “I think I’m getting too old for that stuff. I don’t get a good enough Return On Investment.”
Captain: “What do you mean?”
Me: “Before, I used to love roller coasters. I didn’t mind paying the park fee and waiting two hours in line for each ride. Now, it’s just not worth it to me anymore. Those are two hours of my life I’ll never get back.”
Captain: “What if you went with your friends and you guys could talk while you’re in line?”
Me: “But it’s hot. Why would I want to spend money to stand in a hot line with lots of people when I could instead spend money to be in a coffee shop with my friends, or go have High Tea somewhere and talk there? I’d be in air conditioning and get scones and Devonshire cream.”
Captain (thoughtfully): “You have a point.”
What do you think? Amusement park or coffee shop? What floats your boat at your stage in life?

But I think I would still prefer the tea...
Since I'm the gotta-have-it-all girl, I say go to the park once this year and have coffee any other time you want. Then you could have an experience to talk about for awhile, and have your coffee too.
