OMF(riggin)G(awds)!!!

I’m super excited! No, I didn’t get “THE CALL” but I did get an awesome email from a favorite author of mine. She said that she’s sending me a copy of her upcoming book. *WOOT!!*
After having a downer of a week (over all not feeling good junk) this is *happy dance* news.
Ok, you might be [...]

In The Event Of An Emergency

The other night I wasn’t feeling very well. Actually thought I might need to go to the E.R. but my stubbornness and I refused to go. I think I can see this recent episode of illness out without the need of a $3000 medical bill.
So it was a night like any other. I wasn’t feeling [...]

Anticipation

One of my favorite authors has a book due out in October. Friggin October! Do you know how far away that is? Try five whole months. I ask, how is an avid reader who is loyal to an author to wait like this. It’s cruel and unusual punishment.
Perhaps not as bad as all that but [...]

Breaking Free

I just finished a wonderful book by Kathryn Caskie (How To Propose To A Prince) and honestly enjoyed it! However, I don’t remember much about it. The character names escape me but I do recall some of the plot. Now you might think it was because the book wasn’t that memorable or not that outstanding [...]

Knowledge Makes For Bad Reading

Remember before you began writing when books were fun and delightfully entertaining?
Yeah, I do too and sadly that is no longer the case. I have learned so much over the course of my writing and will admit that it stinks! The books I once loved to read so much are now riddled with flaws. Before [...]

Unscheduled Easter Sunday blog :)

Happy Easter, everybody! I’m up early with a mug of hot green tea, my complex’s crazy cat lady has resurfaced with yet another pair of plastic Chinese takeout bowls filled with cat food and she’s lurking on my patio, my husband’s still asleep, and nobody is online. I woke up early to go to [...]

The NOT So Wonderful

At some point in your life you’ve come upon a book that just doesn’t sit well with you. Matter fact, you might find an author whom you’ve tried a few times and something STILL doesn’t click with you. Perhaps you’ve even tossed a few at the wall because of your frustrations with the author’s voice. [...]

I Love Lacey … but I can’t get it right now!

Lillian Feisty’s most recent Ellora’s Cave release, I LOVE LACEY, features a hot, dark abandoned road scene that I’m dying to read, but when I went to grab it from EC this weekend I couldn’t get to it. I’m sure it’ll be back up soon - stop by http://www.ellorascave.com, scroll down on the left [...]

Now, an experienced Dom has broken through her barriers and forced her to face her fear. Sex was always a give and take for Justin Travers. He’d always kept his “lifestyle” practices [...]

Forget the snow, have some FAIRY DUST

We’re looking forward to a nasty weekend weather-wise, here on the East Coast. Reports of snow and wintery mix. What it means for lots of people is time at home to relax and enjoy the cocoa. What it means for me is time at work to take lots of calls from folks not coming in [...]
