Head Spinning

Hello Everyone,

No, this isn't some take-off on The Exorcist, rather, this is me going "Yikes! I can't even be away from email for ONE day?"

I had 28 emails in one email account. This includes junk mail. After I deleted the stuff I didn't need, it took time to answer a family email, then email back and forth with a friend about her Baby Shower this Saturday (that I was going to email the hostess about today), then I had to email the hostess of the shower to RSVP.

Then I went to my writing email account. 12 emails, most of it spam, so I deleted the spam took a look at the ones that WEREN'T spam and then came here.

You can't take a day off from email people, it doesn't work LOL. But it's okay. I don't mind really, I just was a bit surprised (even if most of it was junk).

Today is my son's birthday, so I sang Happy Birthday to him and hoping his present is here (gotta check the mailbox). He took it with good humor, but acted a bit embarrassed. It was funny.

Yesterday I was reading the 4th Jennifer Scales Novel called Seraph Of Sorrow. It was interesting and definitely has a good lead in for another book (not yet out) so I'm curious to see what's going to happen next. Just when I think I have a handle on what's going on with all the arachnids, dragons and beaststalkers something else happens and I have to rethink what I thought. But that's a mark of a good series...when it catches you off guard.

This Saturday is a chapter meeting of RWA. Because of all the things I have going on, I have to leave early, but I'm glad I'll get to get out and see everyone and hear the updates on the business side of the meeting, but I have to leave before the guest speaker because I have 2 other things that day, so it's a crazy day. But I'm thinking it will be a good day.

Anyway, what's going on in your world? Is it as crazy as my world?

Have A Thrilling Tuesday!

Get Thee A Nom De Plume!

By
Good Evening One & All, Shakespeare wrote in Romeo & Juliet, "What's in a name?...A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Disney talked about names in Aladdin in the lyrics, "Better get a nom de plume ." (the song, "One Jump"). So, for a writer, what does a nom de plume (or, pen name) say about the author? It could be a different spelling of the author's name, it could be a name that has a significance. They could keep their first name, but change the last, or change both. A pen name is also the name a writer will write under for his or her books. The name that his or her readers will recognize them. The name on the autographs and the one where people will say, "Oh yes, that's so and so, they wrote..." Some authors write under their own names. Others, for a variety of reasons, choose a pen name. What about you? Are you considering a pen name? What have you looked at when thinking of your nom de plume ? For myself, I...

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...
