All in honor of Love. True Love.

Well, are you ready?!? For the next TWO weeks, The Alley Cats are celebrating the season of love, and what a GREAT TIME we have planned for you!
Romance and fiction are in the air. A fantastic combination.
Shall we set the dates?
Monday – Pepper starts off the week with a post called Heroes: Mind, Body, and Soul.
Tuesday – First Glances of Love with Sherrinda. Check out some great scenes where two people ‘see’ their destined love for the first time…in a different light.
Wednesday – Mary brings us Three Loves Now Gone With the Wind- Guess what her featured book is? ;-)
Don’t miss Casey’s post this Thursday called: “The Perfect Proposal Plan”. With tips from authors such as Janet Dean, Denise Hunter, Lorna Seilstad, it’s going to have the ring of romance.
As usual, Krista brings her humor and romantic twists to end this first week of romance from The Writers Alley.

Great rundown, Pepper, as always. And how exciting for Casey!!! Hmmm, which hunky hero will she get to kiss in Julie's book? :)
ReplyDeleteOooo, Sarah!
ReplyDeleteWhat a thought. I bet it will make sweet Casey blush ;-)
Especially if JULIE writes the kiss!!!
Great posts coming up as always!!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for our Miss Casey!! She worked so hard for it, too!! I wouldn't put it beyond Julie...:)
I'm also giving away Jody's book The Preacher's Bride at my site today!
Oh, Sarah, you're right. Can't wait to see Casey's dashing white knight.
ReplyDeleteThis blog is too much fun:)
Happy romance weeks all:)
Ladies calm down, I don't know WHO I'm playing. Though what a thought... ;)
ReplyDeleteGrin ... it is kind of fun thinking what I can do with our girl, Casey. She commented on my Seekerville blog this week that she tends toward women's fiction because she doesn't have enough experience for romance. Uh, I'll see what I can do on that score, okay, Case? But rest assured, it's already written and hate to tell ya, but you do end up in a bedroom ... :)
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Julie
Oh nooooo!!
ReplyDeleteJust kidding. She better be turned around is all I can say! :)
Should I run scared NOW while I have the chance?? :)
Ooo...I'm excited for this week, guys! Sounds fun! (Hoping the content filter at this hotel will hold out and not ban blogs again)
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Casey! That will be a lot of fun!
Congratulations, Casey!
ReplyDeleteLooks like another great week coming up at the Alley.
Thank you Ralene and Keli!! I don't think I could have gotten more exciting news. :-D
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Love this post!
ReplyDeleteAnd congratulations to Casey!!! I saw your name in Julie's newsletter--I'm so happy for you!! :D Can't wait to read all about your character. ;)
