It's been over a week since my last post and for that I apologize. I hate to say it, but writing took a back seat while I took a break to do some reading. Then there was that whole just jump in the car and drive to Vegas thing. That was a fun and interesting trip. Now I'm back to reality, which means back to work and hopefully back to writing.
I also wanted to say as promised for my ROAK I told Nova Ren Suma I would buy each of her books. I purchased them all yesterday and they should be here in a week. I can't wait to read them!
I'm not sure if I will have a new post for Short Story Sunday this week, but I promise to have something next week.
Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

Random Act Of Kindness BLITZ!
A smile. An encouraging word. A thoughtful gesture. Each day people interact with us, help, and make our day a bit brighter and full. This is especially true in the Writing Community.
Take a second to think about writers you know, like the critique partner who works with you to improve your manuscript. The writing friend who listens, supports and keeps you strong when times are tough. The author who generously offers council, advice and inspiration when asked.
So many people take the time to make us feel special, don't they? They comment on our blogs, re-tweet our posts, chat with us on forums and wish us Happy Birthday on Facebook.
To commemorate the release of their book The Emotion Thesaurus, Becca and Angela at The Bookshelf Muse are hosting a TITANIC Random Act Of Kindness BLITZ. And because I think KINDNESS is contagious, I'm participating too!
I am randomly picking Nova Ren Suma, author of Imaginary Girls. From giving me great new debuts to read to letting me know that I am not alone with her Writer's Turning Points series, her blog is always a pleasure to read. Nova, for my RAOK gift, the only thing I feel like I can offer you in return is to purchase a copy of each of your books as a way to say thank you for writing such a great blog!
I really appreciate Nova, who blogs at 99distractions (http://distraction99.com/). If you have a minute, please stop in and tell her how awesome she is!
Do you know someone special that you'd like to randomly acknowledge? Don't be shy--come join us and celebrate! Send them an email, give them a shout out, or show your appreciation in another way. Kindness makes the world go round. :)
Becca and Angela have a special RAOK gift waiting for you as well, so hop on over to The Bookshelf Muse to pick it up.
