« Previous EntriesBefore You Die…
This week we’re doing a list of the ONE book each of us thinks people should read before they died.
Mine is Persuasion by Jane Austen. Lori might kill me because she agrees this is the best Austen book.
I know most people think Pride & Prejudice is the way to go, and really any of Austen’s [...]
I Wish I’d Written That
This thought instantly occurred to me when I read Joey W. Hill’s “Natural Law”. I wish Mac Nighthorse had spent some time talking to ME. Yummmmmmmmm. I adored Violet. This was the first (but not the last) book I wish I’d written by Joey W. Hill. She writes Vampires as well [...]
Lyric is Down
Repeat…Lyric is down.
Or her internet is anyway. So I’m going to do a little dance for you in her place.
Let’s see…an idea she wishes she had was…the Chicken Soup for the Soul series. Why? Money, baby. Whoever invented that has GOT to be rolling in the green goodness by now.
(Note how in my world, Lyric [...]
Why couldn’t I think of that??
Cool topic this week. There’s a couple series I’m reading these days that make me, damn! Wish I had thought of that! Crystal turned me on to this book and it’s awesome.
First up, Ann Aguirre’s Grimspace.
Next, Nalini Singh’s Psy-Changeling series. I love this series, but what’s not to love? Hot shape shifters [...]
Wish I Thought of That!
Okay…I admit it…I covet Crystal Jordan’s brain. No seriously. Its an amazing place, full of fantastic ideas. I can’t start any “wish I wrote that” blog without acknowledging my absolute favorite world of hers-the Wereplanet world that can be found in Sexy Beast V and Carnal Desires
I think that Lora Leigh needs to get a [...]
Why Didn’t I Think Of That?
This week is all about coveting the ideas of other writers. There are a few ideas and worlds that I totally wish I’d come up with first, so I’ll toss them out there.
The first? Gena Showalter’s Lords of the Underworld series. Men opened Pandora’s Box and are now tormented by the sins they unleashed? Heck, [...]
Now, Don’t Take This The Wrong Way But…….
You know, I is a writer. That means, my stock and trade is words-writing them, saying them, using them, watching them (I hope)–and I’ve come to notice something about those of us who dabble in word usage (other writers, T.V. anchors, politicians). We often forget the power of our words.
Considering that I make [...]
Saturday Six
I am so late with this post today…well tonight. Our topic this week has been things that annoy us. So, I’ll start off with what annoyed me today….
1. When you have 25 things to do, but there are only 24 hours in a day. Not that the things I did today annoyed me, becasue they [...]

The Novelty Girls will be chatting at Joyfully Reviewed today from 4-7pm EST. Drop by for yummy excerpts and free goodies!
Things That Annoy Me…
Crystal, are you sure this was a good idea? You know me and my pet peeves…
I frequently tell people I’m a cantankerous old lady long before my time, complete with the threatening cane. (Do not piss off the bitch with a sword cane. Really. I don’t advise it.) Certain things annoy me, and [...]
