The Wind Blew And I Danced

Happy Tuesday All,

Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend. The weekend wasn't really a long one for me and the husband (he worked Monday and so did I, although, my work was different from his. While he went to his place of work, I was working from home on my edits).

The weather is a bit cooler--not much--but definitely felt the change. Saturday night I went grocery shopping with my husband and offspring. When we came out it was windy and raining (not hard). I danced in the rain (hey if you had been through this drought we Texans have experienced, you would, too).

I love cooler weather and I didn't mind the wind. It felt GREAT. (In case you haven't noticed, Fall and Winter are my favorite Seasons...I just love the cooler weather, and the Holidays--especially Christmas).

Recently I found out that Bath & Body Works has its Fall scents out. I fell in love with "Orchard Leaves" (it's a spicy fall scent that makes me want to make a hot cup of tea and snuggle up with a blanket). I also got "Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin" and "Cinnamon Raisin Cookie". "Cinnamon Raisin Cookie" and "Orchard Leaves" are new.

Now we just need some more rain (okay I don't want anything destructive, just something to help us) and the cooler weather and I'll be a happy camper.

What's your favorite season?

Have A Tantalizing Tuesday!

I feel the best in the summer...so I'll have to go with summer, but honestly, I spend so little time outside...it hardly matters. Dh and I are seriously thinking of moving somewhere without all the high and low pressures...Our youngest is a senior in high school, so next year we could move anywhere we wanted...

Oh,Autumn is DEFINATETLY my favorite season.Although I had hoped when I moved back more to the East that the Fall colors would be brighter than they are here, I do enjoy the different colors and shapes.I love the Autumn flowers, the long grasses that turn to seeds, the blue skies with fluffy clouds.I enjoy Halloween and Thanksgiving immensely, especially with extra family coming in this year. I wish Auntumn would last longer.Alas, (sigh), it is usually too hot to too cold and back again where I am.This week we had record-breaking, over 100F heat to highs below 70, lows barely 50 with rain...I got the painting done that I needed to do outside just in time!
Nice to be back with you,Bethany.

Tess,

Thanks for dropping by. If you do move you have to stay in contact--you're an awesome person and a great C.P. (plus a talented writer to boot) :-)

Tonette,

Good to "see" you, thanks for dropping by. Glad you got that painting done. We've had over 100 for so long, it's FINALLY gotten cooler. Hope you have fun with all the family coming in for Thanksgiving :-)

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...
