Don't Forget To Wear Green!

Happy Friday All,

In honor of the fact Saturday (tomorrow) is St. Patrick's Day, I thought I'd post in green colored font.

When I was a kid we had a couple of Irish ladies stay with us. It was a lot of fun. There was a few years where we got to ride in the St. Patrick's Day parade with them. It was fun.

There's a lot of legends centering around St. Patrick--one of the most popular is that he drove the snakes out of Ireland. Whatever St. Patrick did or did not do, I think for the most part, people agree he was a real person.

Of course, tradition has it that it's a day to wear green, and celebrate all things Irish. So, I wish you all a happy St. Patrick's Day and a safe weekend.

Have A Fantastical Friday!

I usually try to run Irish-themed movies on St.Patrick's Day,Bethany, even if I only catch part of each. I haven't done any shamrock cookies this year,darn it!
And,Yes, St.Patrick is a historical figure, but that doesn't mean that all of the stories are true.However, I believe in many miracles, so , who kows what may have happened?
Have a great weekend!

Tonette,

I hope you get to making your Shamrock cookies!

I do believe there were several miracles associated with St. Patrick.

Thank you for dropping by. :-)

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...

It's All About August..

By
  Hi Everyone! End of August is coming up, and thus, it's time for a monthly update from yours truly. Currently, I'm waiting on some responses on queries for Sugar & Frost . There's been a bit more interest since #UnhingedPit and #questpit, so that's great. I love this story so much, that I'm happy with other people get interested. As far as I'm concerned, it's a fun read. I call it the "book of my heart" because it's just exactly something I'd pick up as a reader and cuddle up with a comfy blanket in a chair, couch, or in bed, with something hot to drink and just enjoy. I also dedicated it to my siblings, so there is a personal aspect to it, too. Other manuscripts:  Moonrise Pack: Shifter Secrets (YA Fantasy, wolf shifters, sweet romance) is in edits--I finally sat down and started working on it. I'm not very far along in the editing, yet, but hopeful about polishing it. I had made a poster for it for #PosterPit since they allow W...
