Book Reporting

Hi Everybody,

The other day I finished reading Kerrelyn Sparks' new book to her Love At Stakes series, The Vampire And The Virgin. Once again, another good one.

For those unfamiliar with her series, the first one is How To Marry A Millionaire Vampire.

She sprinkles her books with suspense, romance, humor, witty characters and dialogue. I happen to like her character, Gregori--he makes me laugh. (Although, I noticed Gregori doesn't really make an appearance in The Vampire And The Virgin, but that's okay, it was still good!)

I don't want to give too much away, especially for those who have not read the series, but if you like Greek things, there's some Greek things in this book :-)

The nice thing is, her books have action and humor, too, so there's a whole round of "What's going to happen next?" intertwined with the romance and the heat.

Plus, there's some dialogue that just makes me laugh out loud and if a book can make me laugh out loud I like it even more.

Anyway...if you like vampires, romance, humor, suspense, action, good guys fight bad guys I think you'd like this series.

I think it's pretty much adults, only. Some books can be either YA or adults, but this is pretty much just adults.

Have A Terrific Tuesday!

Marsha,

If you like romance novels and vampires, I wouldn't be surprised if you like this series. Kerrelyn has a wonderful sense of humor and does know how to write the action and romance.

It's Worth A Fortune

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

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...

Myths About Writers

By
Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
