SPECIAL GUEST BLOGGER J.L. WILSON
Talks about publication, the new year, and Tiramisu!
Here we are, facing a new year. In 2006 I signed my first publishing contract, and I now have 8 books out, 4 more scheduled for next year and 5 scheduled for 2010. Whoa. How things change.
And yet they don't change THAT much. I still worry when I submit a book ("will the editor like it?" "will I have a bunch of changes to make before they buy it?"), I'm still grateful when a manuscript is bought, and I'm still amazed that people buy my books and seem to love my stories -- I thought I was the only one who would love a wise-cracking dog who communicates telepathically with a prissy, uptight guy. But people seem to love Cerberus, the dog in my latest book, "Endurance" and Nico, the hero.
I promised myself when I started the Road to Publication that I would (1) have fun doing it, (2) not take myself too seriously and (3) write the kinds of stories I want without feeling compelled to change the age of the h/h (mine are middle-aged) or add a bunch of sex (my books are 'spicy' but not 'hot'). So far, so good. I'm still finding editors to buy them and readers to read them, so I'm going to stick with it for a while longer.
Speaking of Nico: I'm including his recipe for tiramisu. Nico was infected with an immortality virus and has had a chance to study a lot of careers: musician, chef, assassin ... He once attended culinary school with Julia Child and that's where he learned this recipe.
I hope you all have a happy and safe holiday season and are all looking forward to 2009. There's a lot of challenges ahead for the country and its people, but I think we're up to the task. Exciting times lie ahead!

Nico’s Eggless Tiramisu
½ cup brewed coffee, cooled ¼ cup Amaretto liqueur
8 oz mascarpone cheese ¾ cup heavy cream
1 tbsp vanilla 20 ladyfingers
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tbsp sugar
Combine coffee & amaretto. Divide the cheese in half, stirring coffee mixture into one half. Set aside. Whip cream with vanilla and sugar in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into remaining cheese.
Line a 7x11 dish with parchment paper and put 10 ladyfingers in the bottom. Spoon half of the coffee mixture over the cookies. Top with half of the whipped-cream mixture. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with cocoa. Refrigerate overnight before serving.

SPECIAL GUEST BLOGGER – Author J.L. Wilson talks about Trading Cars
As I write this, the snow is flying outside -- not much but enough to make me appreciate the fire in the fireplace, that's for sure.
On a gloomy day like this, I often snuggle in to write, but today I'm going to venture out to car shop. The frugal part of me balks at this activity, but the practical side of me says I should. My current car isn't that old, but I feel I need an all-wheel drive car in the snowy North. I had one a few years back but traded 'up' for a front-wheel drive car.
Big mistake. I've sweated through three winters, worrying about my commute. So I've decided to learn my lesson, take the trade-in, and get a car that will get me through my winters. I'm somewhat consoled by the fact the trade-in will be good (already got an estimate) so I'm not going to be out of pocket too much.
So here's what I've learned from this experience:
1. Don't be swayed by what dealers tell you. No, a FWD car isn't the same as an AWD car and no, I won't get accustomed to a FWD car easily.
2. Go with your gut instinct. Do you love the car? Does it feel right? Does it fit you?
3. Take the spouse with you to test drive it and DEMAND that he tell you how it feels to him. I took the Spouse with me to test drive the last car, but he didn't give me his opinion until AFTER I've bought it -- too late to inform that 'gee, it's not very comfortable for me in the passenger seat.' Since I do most of the driving in the family in my car, this was an ISSUE. Sigh. This time he has to come with me to give it a try.
4. Be prepared to walk away. The sales people will try to do their jobs -- put you in a car that might be outside your $$ comfort zone. Walk away if needed. Explain gently but firmly that you want to spend $X.XX and really no more. Smile, be polite, and leave if needed. I did that yesterday. I drove the car, loved it, said I'd think about it. I'll call 'em back today and dicker over the phone ('do you have an older model one? I'd really like to shave some money off the price.')
5. Give them contact info that won't interfere with your life. I gave them my cell phone # (I seldom turn on my phone) and my 'spare' email address. Messages can merrily pile up and I won't care.

This is sort of my one-stop-shopping spot for info about cars.
Wish me luck!

Worth Raving About:
LINDA EDER "The Other Side of Me"
Soulful, heart-felt, contemporary with a twist of country—this album is a great listen for some “me time” or drive time. Yet, it’s energizing enough to clean house to or take along on your next walk.
“The Other Side of Me” is filled with fabulous vocals and easy-going, catchy tunes you can’t help but want to sing along to. Particular favorites are “If You Believe in Love (The Way I Do),” “Lifted,” and “Make Today Beautiful.”
The best thing I enjoy about this album is its over-all uplifting nature. Listening to it makes me smile. A total feel-good experience.

A new book, a new recipe!
As you know, I like to have a recipe that I use for promo for my books. The books aren't about cooking, but the dish shows up in the book, then I create a recipe card for it and use that as promo for the book.
Well, I got the cart before the horse this time: I've got a recipe, but didn't have the book.
Luckily, I was working on a new book and I found a way to sneak this item in there. Isn't it funny how that happens sometimes? You have something good that sort of falls into your lap, but you're not quite sure how to use it. Then you turn around, and voila: there's the use!
The heroine in this book is a woman who's inherited some Big Money (or she will inherit it if her ex-brother-in-law will drop his lawsuit). I try very hard to keep politics, etc., out of my books, but some of the recent political figures are just too good to pass up -- I couldn't make up characters like that!
So a couple of the characters are based on people in the news today. Depending on how the elections come out this fall, we'll see if my villain scenario is right or wrong.
Give this one a try: it should be interesting since I've never seen a recipe for single-serving chocolate cake. Here's a caveat: I haven't tried this one yet, but I have it on good authority that it's yummy.
So give it a try!

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons cake flour(that’s plain flour, not self-rising)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips(optional)
a small splash of vanilla
1 coffee mug
Directions:
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don’t be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).
