Okay, okay, I’m not really a Tairen Soul. It would be wicked cool if I was, though!

I’m halfway through my friend C. L. Wilson‘s series (because only 2 of 4 have hit the shelves) and firmly in love with the hero’s right hand man Bel. (If you also love him, back off. He’s mine.)

I finally got around to updating my Books Read in 2007 list on the right. I think. It’s been so long since my last update, I’m sure I missed some of them.

But I couldn’t miss hanging out with C. L. Wilson in person this weekend at the TARA holiday party! Here’s the Tairen queen and myself:

I had a blast hanging out with all my TARA sisters and brothers. You can read more about our party shenanigans over at Karen Lingefelt’s blog, or about our gift exchange over at Vicki Lane’s blog.

YOUR TURN: What did you do this weekend? Are you gearing up for the holiday season or do you wish it would pass you by? If you exchange presents this time of year, how are you doing on your list?
