Announcements!

Happy Monday All,

Last week Robin Badillo put out the 3rd novel in her Blood Hunter (adult*) Paranormal Romance series, The Return available from Extasy Books.

*I put this there as a reference to a post I posted last Friday about genre age groups.

This Thursday I'm having an (adult Romance) author interview and a giveaway, so be sure to come back on Thursday, July 21, 2011.

I'm on an Oreo kick again...the Reduced Fat ones actually taste like the regular (even though the fat is a little lower).

Currently I'm reading Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini (a YA fantasy/paranormal novel--that has Greek Mythology mixed in it). Just released this year from HarperTeen. Pretty good so far.

What are you reading?

Have A Mythical Magical Monday!

So what are you reading now?

Bethany, did you say 'reading' or 'eating'?!!!
In your case and mine, the answer is probably "BOTH!"

It should come as no surprise that I just finished Janet Evanovich's "Smokin' Seven" and I am just about to start Mary Janice Davidson's
"The Royal Mess",(it's just out in paperback; she has written so much,I will never get everything of hers read).

And I am eating Nutmeg-Pecan muffins that I have had in the freezer. I baked a lot while the weather was cool , so now I have homemade goodies without the heat, and boy, has it been hot here in Ky.
Frozen Oreos sound like a way to stay cool!

Tonette,

I said reading LOL But eating works, too. I'm not a big fan of pecans, but that still sounds like a fun treat. Enjoy "The Royal Mess".

Thank you for dropping by :-)

It's Worth A Fortune

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

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

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...
