It's A Mad, Mad Wonderland...

Happy Wednesday Everybody,

My computer and/or blog website is acting up, so I don't have any pictures to go with this blog post. I apologize!

Recently I finished a trilogy. The writing was incredibly well done. The plot had many twists and turns, which I imagine the author had to keep many notes to make sure she knew what was next. The characters were deep and well thought out. In fact, one of them, named Morpheus was incredibly complex. Keeping track of how he reacts to things and how he thinks and the fact he had such well-thought out schemes suggests to me perhaps this writer is a major plotter. I highly admire such foresight. The writing, descriptions, action, and romantic tension were all well done. 

If fairy-tales/Wonderland and/or YA novels are up your alley then perhaps you'd want to read it. Or even if they aren't your favorite you might still want to read this trilogy. Why? Because the writing is just that good. It's so well thought out and executed. I'm in awe of it.

So, if you're intrigued or even just a little bit curious, check out A.G. Howard's Splintered, Unhinged, and Ensnared. I think that whatever you feel about Wonderland, the fact that she can keep track of all the itty-bitty intricate details will leave you gaping in wonder (it did for me). I plan to read the novellas that are companions to this trilogy and the new story she has coming out in 2017. Say hi to Morpheus and Jeb for me. Don't tick off Red! Befriend Alyssa. And remember, nothing is as it seems.

Have A Wonderfully Whimsical Wednesday!

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...

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: Christie Craig

Happy Tuesday Everyone, Sorry about the delay in getting Christie Craig's email interview up. Normally I can just copy and paste interviews from my email into my blog, but this time my blog would NOT let me paste the interview! So everything has to be done manually, which takes longer. Anyway, let me introduce you to Christie Craig: I met her through the NWHRWA , which we're both members of. She's a real sweetheart. Funny, fun, and makes you feel comfortable (you don't feel shy or uncomfortable because she has a very hospitable presence about her). She's also very helpful, offers great advice and encouragement (I know this from experience, she's been very encouraging to me). Christie is a multi-published author of both fiction and nonfiction. Her works include things like Divorced, Desperate & Delicious and her up-coming non-fiction (with elements of fiction) work, Wild, Wicked And Wanton: 101 Ways To Love Like You're In A Romance Novel ...due out this ...
