    Hi Mimi! When Kim called me about contributing to this project I'd just hit the submit button for a 70,000 word novel I'd written in two months. She asked me to come up with something new, insisting I could do it in one month. I believe the phrase, "You write wicked fast!" was used in her prompting. So, after writing 105,000 words in three months for a novel and a novella, I'm a tad burnt out. But, adding that to my regular formatting, editing, proofreading, reading and reviewing books…the excuse of "I don't have time to write" holds little meaning anymore. So, thank you, Ms. Hornsby, for pushing me to do this, and for including me in this fabulous box set! "Christmas 911" originally was meant to take place entirely with a mother-to-be hiding out in a robbery/hostage situation, with only the 911 operator as her lifeline. I'd planned the entire story around that one incident. Then I thought, what if the 911 dispatcher, a sexy ex-Marine working his way through college, couldn't find it in him to walk away from the female protagonist after the crisis ended? What if he couldn't shake the feeling that he needed to stick around, protect her, find out more about her? That was the birth of "Christmas 911". I'm satisfied with the results and again, I thank Kim for including me, and I also thank you, Mimi, for featuring our box set today!
