Fear week?

Do I have to? I thought about doing a Thursday Thirteen, but who wants to see that? Plus, I don’t think there are 13 things I’m afraid of. I mean, spiders are a given right? Actually spiders don’t bother me much, but I HATE palmetto bugs. *shudder* I will spare y’all a description of [...]

Fear Is The Mind Killer

Okay anyone who got that quote is cool in my book lol
Speaking of books- I have a release out today. Lux in Shadow is now available at Samhain Publishing.
No matter how many times it happens, I’m still all jittery and nervous. Excerpts? Jittery and nervous. I’m afraid I’ll get the equivalent of rotten cyber tomatoes tossed at [...]

I Screamed Like A Little Girl

This week at TNG, we’ll be talking about fears. Enjoy the fright-fest.

So, my biggest fear? Failure and public humiliation. And spiders.
My agent calls last week to tell me my editor at Kensington wants to give me a three book deal. Do I jump up and down and scream? Nope. I was calm and collected, discussed [...]

A Golden Moment

There’s been a lot of talk at the Olympics about Michael Phelps surpassing Mark Spitz’s record of seven gold medals. Frankly, I’m kind of tired of it. I think he is too. Talk about pressure. Everytime he finished a great swim exhibiting guts, grit and class, the stupid media would ask [...]

“8″ Gold Medals!!!!

THIS is why I watch the Olympics!!! I had to wait to post AFTER the final mens relay race to see if Michael Phelps, with the help of his team mates, won another gold medal. And he did!!! It was absolutely amazing to watch.
I am not a sports fanatic…by any means. Normally, I only watch [...]

Olympic Sport update

Crys told me this week’s theme and I groaned. Yeah, you heard me. Cuz while I’d like to be all idealistic about them (thanks, RG!) and see them as this great co-mingling of the universe as we know it…and I can, when I think about it…mostly the Olympics are just the same three events replayed [...]

Symbolism

We are not exactly a world at peace with ourselves. Alliances falter and crumble, walls and belief structures continue to divide us. From the Cold war to the current issues around the globe-the human race doesn’t usually make a habit of true unity.
But every four years we have the Olympics. Yes its still a competition, [...]

My Sporting Event

So, my best friend loves the Tour de France. And college football. She goes to games, she watches obsessively on television.
Me? I generally hates sports. All sports. I’ll watch the Superbowl if someone invites me to a party. And only if I’m pretty sure there will be awesome food at the party. Other than that? [...]

Who’s Right And Who’s Not?

One of the things I love about the romance genre is the happily ever after at the end of a book. In books, movies and television, I like my happy endings. It’s ENTERTAINMENT. Not reality. In Real Life, we are all aware that some people may work for us, and some [...]

The lid to my pot was lost at the back of the cabinet.

When I was told the topic for the week here was romance and finding Mr. Right I got very excited. Because this is a favorite topic of mine. Honestly. If I have one prevailing theme in my books it’s that you take people as they come. You don’t change them, you don’t resent their inherent [...]
