Blog Events & Updates...

Happy Tuesday All,

 The time stamp probably says Monday, but this post is actually meant for Tuesday. 
I'm so excited about next week (well, I'm also excited about something on this blog for THIS week, but I'll explain that later in this post) Why am I excited about next week? Because I've got this huge blog event ON HERE going on!  I'm going to be featuring different authors (many of which I haven't read, yet!) And just wait until you hear the topic. I think this is going to be fun! Be sure to stay tuned to see what's up.


On the writing front, I'm working on edits that I got from a critique on one of my WIPs. (Work In Progress).  It's slow going, but hopefully it'll be done soon. I've made some progress, but I still have several pages left to go. My publisher is expecting this novel to be turned in by May. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get it in on time, and I'm glad that I have a good portion of April to finish up and work on any touch-ups before I send it out.
This week I will have another official blog book review. One (because I have several favorites) of my favorite authors was nice enough to let me have a copy of her upcoming release. I'm very excited to be able to do this. So make sure you also stay tuned this week to see what book I'm reviewing and which author it is! 
As to other things...


 The weather down here in Texas is still exhibiting indecisive behavior. However, I do know that eventually it will settle into hot and humid until probably sometime in October. So the cooler weather is a must to enjoy, but at least we don't have to contend with snow, ice, or frozen pipes, so I guess it's a matter of count your blessings!

 Have A Tremendously Terrific Tuesday!

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...
