Today’s question:

What’s the latest you’ve ever stayed up reading a book? Is staying up late reading a usual thing for you?

My answer:
When I was a younger, I was able to stay up until 2-3am reading and the funny thing, which now that I think about it, it was when my boys were young. One would think that I would need my sleep even more back then when I spent my days chasing after 2 little ones. Now a days, my sleeping patterns have changed. Take last night for example, I read until 10pm, because I just couldn’t put the galley that I am reading down, but that is late for me. I would rather be up by 5:30-6am or I feel that the day has been wasted. What about you? Are you a night owl reader?

Howdy Cowgirls and Cowboys!! Come on down from those saddles, hitch your horses to the posts, and stay a while because I have a treat for you!!!!! I am guessing that she had so much fun here at CMash last month with the fantastic and fabulous followers, that she is back….. YES…you heard me right…..Linda Lael Miller is back!!!!!! She is here to talk about her latest book in the Creed Series. So please, help me welcome her back to the CMash blog!!!!!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Each morning shortly after the sun rises over Spokane, Washington, New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller pulls on her cowboy boots and heads for the stables for a few quiet moments with her horses before she settles in to write her pages for the day.

As the daughter of a town marshal, Linda has come home to the western lifestyle that gave birth to one of today’s most successful authors. With more than 80 novels to her credit, the self-confessed barn goddess left Washington years ago and pursued her wanderlust, living in Arizona and London and traveling the world. But now the “First Lady of the West” is glad to be back home, writing contemporary and historical novels that have earned her awards and placements on all the national bestsellers lists.

Linda traces the birth of her writing career to the day when a Northport teacher told her that the stories she was writing were good, that she just might have a future in writing. Later, when she decided to write novels, she endured her share of rejection before she sold Fletcher’s Woman in 1983 to Pocket Books. Since then, Linda has successfully published historicals, contemporaries, paranormals, and thrillers before coming home, in a literal sense, and concentrating on novels with a Western flavor. For her devotion to her craft, the Romance Writers of America awarded her their prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007.

Linda has come a long way since leaving Washington to experience the world. “But growing up in that time and place, in a family grounded in Western values, served me well,” she allows. “And I’m happy to be back home.”

ABOUT THE BOOK

The Creed cowboys are back for the final installment of “First Lady of the West” Linda Lael Miller’s exciting, authentic Western series—the Creed family trilogy. Following the #1 New York Times best-sellers A CREED IN STONE CREEK (March 2011) and CREED’S HONOR (June 2011), THE CREED LEGACY (HQN Books; July 2011; $7.99) ends the beloved three-part series with the story of rough-and-tumble rodeo star Brody Creed, the estranged twin brother of Conner Creed from CREED’S HONOR. Brody likes life on the move. Until a chance encounter with his long-estranged twin brother brings him back home to Lonesome Bend for the first time in years.

Suddenly Brody is in Creed territory—at thirty-three, he’s a restless bad boy in a family with deep ties to the land and each other. And Brody has a secret past that haunts him as he tries to make plans for his future. Soon he meets Carolyn Simmons who is looking for Mr. Right as her biological clock ticks. Will she fall for the gorgeous new cowboy in town—the opposite of everything she wants?
