How's this for a beginning? Be honest. Thanks.Selena stared into the beast’s golden eyes as he crouched on the bed above her and then she quickly moved her gaze to the dismal hotel floor when he snarled. She’d seen enough horror movies and read enough books to know that you don’t look a werewolf in… Continue reading Need an Opinion…

Denzel Washington is probably one of my favorite actors these days. He's always in such good roles, no matter the character he plays, and that's the kicker - his characters vary all over the damn place. I heard he once said that he doesn't pick the script, the script picks him. I know how that… Continue reading The Book of Eli

Kait Nolan is in the midst of a blog tour with her novella Forsaken by Shadow, and I thought it would be interesting to have one of my characters—namely Shawn—interview her, mostly because he saw what I was doing and started throwing out questions. “Interesting” is such a subtle term for Shawn’s typical hijinx, but he conducted himself… Continue reading Shawn Interviews Author Kait Nolan

I have a friend, who doesn't even live in this country by the way, and she's a researcher. On this blog, here's some information she found about Arizona's new laws and she discusses them. It explains some of the "racial profiling" misunderstanding about SB1070, which is the immigration law. So, this law, HB2281, I don't… Continue reading Arizona’s Anti-Ethnic Studies Bill

My gut twists In agony Knots tightening Bile rising I’m trapped in this Nightmare Of broken dreams That never end Eyes shut tight Stinging with pain Light eluding Darkness suffocating The words have disappeared Fading truths untold And I’ve bared my soul For nothing but loss Now look at the cost I’ll accept my fate… Continue reading Loss

I have a list of posts that I've been compiling for some time now, so I can blog more regularly. Here's the next in line, and it was one of the posts I mentioned that should have been before the last post.Some of you may know that I disowned about one-fourth of my family a… Continue reading The Big Blowup

*stares at blank page* This may take a minute or two because I'm still rather brain dead from the move last weekend. Excuse me. *gathers thoughts* Okay, so I've reached this point in my life where another chapter is ending (a big one too), yet the next hasn't quite started, kind of like placing the bookmark… Continue reading Chapter’s End

This comment was sent to me by a friend who will remain nameless until I get approval to name them (Okay, it's my friend writermom and she essentially gathered information). It was a comment for "Let Me See If I Got This Right" and wouldn't fit in the comment section so I'm posting it for… Continue reading About Arizona’s New Immigration Law – A Comment

LONDON GOLD - this is where I went today to see if they'd buy my ring, mostly out of curiosity. The only reason I did this was because they were nearby, only 30 minutes from the house; otherwise, I wouldn't have made the trip. Now I'm wishing I hadn't because it was a waste of… Continue reading Selling My Engagement Ring

I'm excited. *fist pump* Aren't you?Yes, that was sarcasm. I know it's hard to translate that into words on a page, but I do my best.One way or another, I'm moving this weekend. Whether or not I sell my diamond engagement ring this week (meaning tomorrow) will determine how much of my crap I'm moving… Continue reading Moving…Again
