Releases, I Hang Out With A Beast & Life In General

Happy Wednesday All,

Okay I'm late on reporting this (Bad Bethany!!) but, hopefully it's worth the wait. My wonderful critique partner, Tess St. John has put out a brand-new novel, Angel Eyes. For anyone who's read Don't Let It Show and Eyes Of Jade, this is Roy's story! Also, you can get for free, the prelude/prologue short story to Angel Eyes called Violet Eyes (which I've read and helped critique...it's really good. I helped critique a little bit on Angel Eyes--I remember I liked what I read). Most of her books are available on Amazon Kindle and Barnes & Noble Nook, and some of her previous titles are available in-print through Amazon. Violet Eyes is only available through Tess's website, you can download it for free here on her book portion of her homepage.

Lately I've been re-reading Alex Flinn's Beastly (one of my favorite re-tellings of Beauty & The Beast) and she put out on E-book Beastly: Lindy's Diary (which is the story told from Lindy's point of view). So far it's good. I just started Lindy's Diary yesterday, but it's a pretty quick read so I'm already making good progress--I like it!

I'm doing some work on one of my manuscripts, and so that's coming along pretty steadily--not quickly--but steadily.

Life is pretty busy, but a lot of it is a good kind of busy.

So what are you reading now?

Have A Whimsical Wednesday!

Tess,

No problem. Remember? ANGEL EYES was the first thing you had me critique.

Thank you for dropping by :-)

Well, let's see if this post takes, as my last one apparently didn't!
I have not had time to check out Tess's work, but they will be on my tbr list,(which is pretty long, so many books, so little time!. I FINALLY received the copy of 'Yours,Mine and Ours" , the second part of MJ Davidson's "Sisters" trilogy.(I won it quite a while ago and the person I won it from forgot about me..I still like him, though!). I am re-reading the Harry Potters with my grandson, trying to catch up on James Joyce, but I need to stop reading and keep writing...I'm still working on the article. But this week and last have been Spring Break for the kiddos...little writing getting done,I can tell you! I am still looking for a critique partner; you are lucky to have found each other.

Tonette,

All posts go through my administrative section of my blog before they show up on the blog. I'm sorry, I didn't get to it until now.

Sounds like you have some good books to read! Keep enjoying them.

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...
