Like when your kids tell their teachers that their mom likes demons. So cute. I owe my twins a lot. They're the whole reason I locked myself in the bedroom on Sundays and started to write. Don't tell them that though. I'm getting so excited about the launch!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13826814528264162746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-46843589397408469512011-07-28T20:00:01.716-05:002011-07-28T20:00:01.716-05:00Congrats for balancing time with your family and t...Congrats for balancing time with your family and time for your writing.Aubriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884036126491922530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-88442658667733964732011-07-28T17:11:51.879-05:002011-07-28T17:11:51.879-05:00You sound like a great mom, Brooke.

Somehow you hang in there and survive. I just pre-ordered your book from Books on Board. As a contemporary author myself, contemporaries are mostly what I like to read. I'm looking forward to reading it.Anna Jeffreyhttp://www.annajeffrey.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-66745553457849319382011-07-28T16:39:11.490-05:002011-07-28T16:39:11.490-05:00I remember the days when hearing "Mommy!"...I remember the days when hearing "Mommy!" made me understand why some people go totally over the edge. I could NEVER have done it with double the kids, that's for sure!<br /><br />The best thing about motherhood/writerhood? It changes. The kids get older. More independent. They can make their own meals and clean up after themselves. They find things that interest and keep them occupied. And then you can truly savor the pleasure of a few uninterrupted hours of sheer creation. :)<br /><br />Good luck next week! :)Natalie J.

My characters, while defeating evil / saving the world / finding true love have to deal with the "mom, mom, mom, mommy, mommy, mommy, mother, mother, ma, ma, ma--" "What!" "Nothing."<br />;-)<br />Best of luck with the new release!<br />SarahAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671442385457593617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090034241516458003.post-86597424428446047612011-07-28T13:47:35.399-05:002011-07-28T13:47:35.399-05:00That takes discipline (and superhero energy) to wr...That takes discipline (and superhero energy) to write at night after the little ones are in bed. *nods to Brooke* I remember simply collapsing into bed myself after the kids were down.
