Whatcha Reading?

By
Good afternoon, folks...

I have about 10 minutes before I have to run like the wind and get ready to run errands and cook/bake. My dad is coming over this evening to eat dinner with us, and I'm making an alfredo sauce (yes, from scratch, I have a nice receipe) and a brownie pie that looked pretty simple. (I love to cook/bake, but I like to have them simplified. Sometimes I just don't have the time to put together that wonderful Carrot Cake found in Joanne Fluke's The Carrot Cake Murder or the Apple Spice Cake found in Laura Childs' Tea Shop Mysteries) So I'm glad I found something simple.

Anyway...real quick...What's everybody currently READING (NOT working on).

If you look on the sidebar I always put what I'm currently reading. Right now it's Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine. I've read it before, but I really like it.

So it's your turn. Whatcha reading?

Have A Tall Tale Thursday Afternoon/Evening!

I'm reading a book called "How I Stole Her Husband" by Liz Ireland. It's excellent, but I think it's kind of old. From the chick lit days.

I'm just starting a couple books that my editor gave me to read. He thinks they'll help me out. Neither are something I'd read normally.

"Swan Song" by Robert R. McCammon

and "Boneman's Daughter" by Ted Dekker

Both are more horror type's and I would never pick them up off the shelf. But, I need a small bit of that feeling in my book, so I'm going to go with it. He's a good guy...

Stephanie--don't underestimate the chick lit genre...it's apparently alive and well LOL. I hope you enjoy it. :-)

J.J.--For some reason the McCammon title sounds familair. Not sure why. I hope you enjoy those novels and learn all you need to from them! :-)

Get Thee A Nom De Plume!

By
Good Evening One & All, Shakespeare wrote in Romeo & Juliet, "What's in a name?...A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Disney talked about names in Aladdin in the lyrics, "Better get a nom de plume ." (the song, "One Jump"). So, for a writer, what does a nom de plume (or, pen name) say about the author? It could be a different spelling of the author's name, it could be a name that has a significance. They could keep their first name, but change the last, or change both. A pen name is also the name a writer will write under for his or her books. The name that his or her readers will recognize them. The name on the autographs and the one where people will say, "Oh yes, that's so and so, they wrote..." Some authors write under their own names. Others, for a variety of reasons, choose a pen name. What about you? Are you considering a pen name? What have you looked at when thinking of your nom de plume ? For myself, I...

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Gregori Celebrates My Birthday

By
Happy Tuesday All, ****CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED**** In honor of my birthday (that was on Oct. 15th) I am doing TWO give aways! The FIRST one is TODAY!  Today's give away is a copy of Kerrelyn Sparks' Sexiest Vampire Alive . Kerrelyn, being the awesome person that she is, has agreed to give a signed copy of the novel to ONE lucky commenter on my blog. Here's how it's going to work and please read all instructions CAREFULLY. ONE entry PER person : If you choose to email in your entry: Email to this email ONLY .  Your email should state who your favorite vampire is. And no, it does NOT have to be one of Kerrelyn Sparks' characters, but that would be really cool if you DID mention one of hers. If you choose to enter by commenting on my blog: Leave your FIRST name, email address, and what vampire is your favorite. It can be ANY vampire--but like I said, it would be really cool if you mention a Kerrelyn Sparks' vampire. You don't know Kerrelyn Spa...
