A Brief Note -- Update

Image
By
Hello Everyone,

Normally I don't post on the weekend, but for those of you not on my Facebook page, I thought I better let you know a few things:

1.  My blog was closed most of the week because I'm working on a novel. Information on the novel I'm working on can be found in the margin of this blog underneath the information on Surreal.

2. Earlier this week I had an annoymous person trying to post a comment...normally I don't have problems with people posting annoymously, however, my comment section is NOT for advertising your webpages (I don't mind if you you have a link to your webpage under your name or if your name links to your webpage, just please do NOT advertise about it in the comment section). The only time I do any kind of "advertising" or plugging businesses is when I've had personal experience with the website and/or that website has something to do with writing and/or books. If you want your business advertised, my comment section is not the place to do that. I didn't think I needed to say this because I figured most people knew that, which is why I haven't mentioned it before. Another problem is, it was an annoymous post, so I thought it was Spam (in fact, the post was IN my Spam folder). If you have something that has to do with books that you want plugged, email me first and we'll talk about it--but do not send me annoymous messages or annoymous comment posts about plugging your webpage. I'll delete them. This is not to be mean, this is to be as safe as possible on the internet.

3.  I might be posting a regular post on Monday--we'll have to see how much progress I make with my writing.

If you have any questions or comments about anything on this blog or this post, please send me an email message.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

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...
