I blogged about this on my personal blog, but it so upset me I thought I’d revisit it here. Obsessive much? No. Not at all.
I’m officially 21.5 weeks pregnant now. Which basically means I’m big enough that people look twice to make sure I’m preggers and not just stuffed full of Halloween candy. And I’m [...]
Dancing with the Alphas
The classic Alpha male. He is a beast we, as writers, are supposed to know like the back of our hand. Sure he has a soft creamy center-but its usually hidden under mountains of grit and angst and a bad boy persona that is as irritating as it is sexy.
You wouldnt imagine them dancing, leaving [...]
Travel Woes
So, I’m sitting here trying to write this post and I’m drawing a huge blank. It’s Monday morning (blech!) and I have no idea what to say. I have to teach a class this morning, which is good, but I wish it was at a time when I was more alert. The days are getting [...]
What Do YOU Think?
So over at my blog I’ve described my heroines and heroes that I’ve been writing. Two of the heroines and two of the heroes are in sequels to
“Heart Of The Storm” that haven’t been contracted yet. I actually enjoyed it. Talking about my characters gives them breath and life.
But it’s risky.
What [...]
Midnight In The Garden Of Lyric James’ Crazy Email
I’m pulling a Crystal this evening. LOL! Someone sent this to me and I just had to share.
Hope you had a great Saturday!
Retail Therapy
Normally, I’m all about the chocolate. However, after decimating the kid’s Halloween treasures I’m still in need of a boost.
Never fear: Shop-Weekend is here.
Once a year, my mother, sisters, and cousin-who-might-as-well-be-a-sister and I go away. Without our husbands or children. We hop the border from Canada into the US, and shop. All. Weekend. Or we [...]
Odds and Ends
*Damn. It’s Thursday again. Who knew? (Not me. I know, I know.)
*Surgery went fine. Thanks for all the well wishes and good thoughts.
*I have my office back!! AKA Army Guy is gone. He left me a smoke grenade, an M14, a shotgun, and an extra handgun. ‘Cause ya know. I might get invaded. That’s twoooo [...]
We’ve got HART-umm-I mean Heart
Sometimes things take longer than we’d like, don’t go our way. Sometimes our path changes mid journey and we aren’t sure where its going to take us. We cling to good reviews, are destroyed by the bad-though we swear we’ll never read them. It’s hard to keep your chin up when your books are red [...]
Clean-dirty
A coupld of clean-dirty poems, and then a couple of not-so-clean-dirty poem. Tee-hee.
How to Sex a Dinosaur
Tyrannosaurus rex
Has enormous pecs
Whereas Tyrannosaurus regina
Has an enormous …tiara
Princess Margaret
Margaret was the joker of the pack
Jesting with all who scraped and bowed
Asking artists if they were well hung
Fundraisers if they were well endowed
But it was at the General Synod
That [...]
This is an anniversary of sorts for me. It was the first week of November 2005 when I submitted my first manuscript to Harlequin Intrigue. Two months later, I joined Romance Divas and began my education. Over the last year and a half I have learned some invaluable lessons.
1. A good [...]
