Week 2 is over already? That was fast, probably because I had my head down, finishing up revisions on Book 3. Exciting! I'll tell you about it as soon as I can, but not today. Today we are looking at pretty pictures.

This winner caught my eye right away. The colors! The little tiny moon. I'm a sucker for old stone, too. I'm not sure where this is, but I'm thinking Greece.

Clear skies are lovely, but there's nothing like the dramatic interplay of clouds and sun, captured beautifully here, on the Columbia River. Clouds like that would might mean trouble on the high passes of the Sierra, as you will find out when you read MIDDLE OF SOMEWHERE.

Rocky Mountain National Park. Wow. Just wow.

This entry enjoyed the most retweets this week. Isn't it stunning? It was taken on a farm belonging to the entrant's parents.

The tweet read: "In love in the #MiddleofSomewhere." Sigh. My book is, at its heart, a love story, so we're sending these two a copy. Maybe they'll read it together.

Thanks to everyone who joined in the giveaway. Remember you can enter every week, as many times as you wish. Just remember to use the hashtag!

Enjoy whatever beauty you find around you. I plan to. See you on Twitter!
