A Tattoo Across The Heart...

Happy Monday Everybody,

I hope everyone had a great weekend! I had a pretty good one. Offspring had a game and that went well. Friday night I went out with some of my gal pals, and that was fun.

Recently, a fellow author and chapter mate of mine, Shauna Allen, had her first novel released, a contemporary romance, and you're in luck, readers, because today I'm doing my official blog review of her novel, Inked By An Angel!

Kyle is determined to make it on her own. No more being daddy's little princess. She's going to carve out her own place in the world of numbers--also known as accounting--and find her place in the world. The only problem is, without clients, how is she supposed to pay her bills? She can't bear to crawl back to her dad's plush firm where she's basically invisible. She has to make it work.

So, while her first inclination is to run as fast as her fashionable heels will take her, she holds her head high while she waits for her meeting with Michael, at his place of business...a tattoo parlor.

Jed can't believe it when Kyle walks into his tattoo parlor. What is someone like her doing in his domain? She doesn't fit in...at all. With her hair tightly pulled back, and her pearls, and suits, there's no reason for her to be there.

Nothing can be more frustrating than getting these two opposites together. But Michael, an angel on matchmaking duty, is determined to do his best. He can't fail Father again. He has to get Kyle and Jed together.

But will Michael be able to accomplish the goal in spite of Kyle's engagement, Jed's vindictive ex, and a whole lot of wrenches thrown in for good measure? You'll just have to read it for yourself and find out.

As for my personal opinion? Well, all I'm going to say is that I couldn't put it down!

You can have your chance to enjoy Inked By An Angel, which is now available in e-book form from Soul Mate Publishing, Amazon Kindle, and Barnes & Noble Nook.

Have A Mystical Monday!

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...
