I was dressed for MC-ing 🎤 the 'Bay Area Welcome Neighbor Club' Fashion Show. My dress is from The Salty Mermaid Boutique in Crystal Beach (here with Owner Shauna Schroeder ) and my Boots from District Rags Boutique - Galveston. Yes....I fell in love and now I own these. Hello Rodeo and Lone Star Rally?🤩 I don't have any other pictures from the event because I was busy talking... please share if anyone snapped any. And I can't wait to see pics from Charita King-Caldwell Photography.
Thank you ladies of BAWNC!! I loved meeting all of you!❤️
(P.S. oops on the Island Tan Lines 😬)

THIS IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT! Last Friday was the best part of my Sweetheart Year! I was able to meet and visit with Sophie, at Shriner's Hospital. We both love Tiaras and Sparkles. Sophie made ME laugh and made MY day! What a pleasure! Thank you Sophie! XO
( We were able to help Sophie this past year through our efforts together with the Texas Elks Children's Services special grants program! ) ❤

Sharing the Spotlight
by Saralyn Richard
When BAD BLOOD SISTERS came out last March, a book club chose it as its first selection, and invited me to speak. This was no ordinary book club. It was the Elks Lodge #126, and they were fund-raising for the Texas Elks Children’s Services, Inc. So enthusiastic were they about BAD BLOOD SISTERS! They split the book club discussion into two events: 1)a tour of the local funeral home with a discussion about the book in the wake room (because the main character works in death services); and 2)a dinner, book talk, and raffle.
I was touched by the amount of attention they were giving to my latest novel. Sympathetic to their drive to raise money for this worthy organization, I offered to auction the privilege of being a named character in my next book. Asta Timm, Elks Sweetheart, loved the idea and we decided to start the bidding at a reasonable price.
The night of the book club dinner, there was a buzz in the air. The Elks organizers, including Karen Crummett Sawyer and Asta, had a number of fun surprises. We ate, we drank, we talked about the book, we played a trivia game (with prizes). Then it was time for the raffle. The bidding opened and took off with a bang. Everyone, it seemed, wanted to be a character in a book. My head swiveled from one side of the room to the other as friends outbid one another over and over again. Finally, the auction ended, with the closing bid at ten times what the opening bid had been.

The winner of the auction, Tammie Caballero, became one of the key characters in CRYSTAL BLUE MURDER, which was published in September. Tammie was thrilled, because she wanted her family name in the spotlight. She knew her grandfather would be proud. When I replaced Tammie’s name in the manuscript, MS Word made 365 changes.
Tammie has come with me to several book launch events, and I always introduce her and ask her to say a few words about her part in the book’s journey. Her involvement in the book adds a special dimension that we both enjoy talking about. I have a new friend for life, and the Texas Elks Children’s Services has a generous benefactor. I can’t say enough about the Elks, Asta, Karen, and Tammie. I love sharing the spotlight with them!

I made a practice cake (under the supervision of Chef Paul and Kara)- for next Friday's last island party before my send-off to District Charity Ball.
Baking lessons learned: 1. flour the bottom of pan, don't just grease as stated per instructions. 2. Don't over bake 3. Buy a bakers TIARA !!! Bad luck to bake without one! 4. OR just buy a cake from a professional.

Sometimes you remove your own Tiara and are humbled to meet True Galveston Royalty! Z Krewe Royals. It was a pleasure me...
