Colleen Coble writes romantic suspense with a strong atmospheric element. A lovable animal of some kind--usually a dog--always populates her novels. She can be bribed with DeBrand mocha truffles.
Denise Hunter writes women's fiction and love stories with a strong emotional element. Her husband says he provides her with all her romantic material, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too.
Diann Hunt writes romantic comedy and humorous women's fiction. She has been happily married forever, loves her family, chocolate, her friends, chocolate, her dog, and well, chocolate.
Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

I have cousins in both Indiana and Ohio and a number of their adult kids have scheduled weddings over holiday weekends like the Fourth, or Labor Day. They think it's easier on the guests since they'll already have an extra day off work. Might work well for those who live in small towns, but I live in the Chicago area & must travel from the northwest burbs around the city to get to I-65 & beyond. Always congested, but on holiday weekends, it's terrible.
Some time ago a wedding was held in northeast Ohio & we got stuck in the mother of all traffic jams on the Indiana Toll Road coming back. Ended up getting off and taking state routes before getting back on when we had no choice. Didn't get home until way after dark. After that I end up leaving early morning of the last day of the weekend just to avoid such a thing.
I travel by train to see my family so it really doesn't make a difference when I go, the price stays the same.
Happy Independence Day and have a wonderful time at the wedding.
We're staying home, grilling, and trying to keep the marshmallow dog from eating the windowsills. He's terrified by fireworks. We're even thinking of getting some sedatives from the vet. Sheesh.
We usually travel back to IA to spend it with family. But this year we're staying home, which I am for one happy with. I dislike the traveling and the cost of gas.
This year promises to be relaxing and fun for us. (And possibly productive, as I should get some writing in.)
The hotel room last night gave us a lovely view of fireworks nearby. Spectacular! Reminding us anew of the freedoms we enjoy as a nature, and I pray that we continue to enjoy!
Happy Independence Day, Friends!!!
Because of back problems with traveling, I definitely prefer to stay around home for the holiday, except for Thanksgiving and Christmas. We try to leave on weird times then, so we aren't caught up in traffic. But we have to deal with the frozen water kind those two holidays--snow/ice.
Family reunion in WI. We came the farthest (from Turkey)...but we'd already been on the road (London, Philadelphia, and DC) for a week, so you cannot say we came directly from Turkey. :) I prefer not to travel, actually.
