Daily Show Love

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

I’m not making a public political statement here. Just commenting on how silly the political debate can get during election time…
I grew up in a small town. Despite that, I have no idea what “small town values” are as opposed to values outside of small towns. Only people who grew up near [...]

MySpace: The Former Lawyer Edition

Sunday, October 21st, 2007

It’s Sunday. Remember to check-in at the Sweat Challenge today.
___________________
I played around in MySpace this week. Changed the look of my MySpace page and generally updated all the information. While nosing around, I found a few books of interest. The authors of this week’s books come from legal backgrounds. Now [...]

MySpace: The How Did I Miss This Edition

Monday, October 8th, 2007

I found a few books on MySpace this week that I should have found earlier. See, in both of these cases, I read a more recent book and then realized there was another one (or more) out there by the author that I somehow missed.
First up is A Secret World by Jennifer Paddock. [...]

MySpace: The Fav Authors Edition

Monday, October 1st, 2007

I’ve discovered new authors and upcoming releases while paging through MySpace friends. I’ve also gotten reacquainted with some old favs. Two authors I follow and wait for “coming soon” news have new releases to share. Here they are:
First up is Crazy in Love by Lani Diane Rich. Lani is one of those [...]

MySpace: The Bought It This Week Edition

Sunday, September 23rd, 2007

After I hand in a book, I wander into bookstores, get a latte and look around. This week’s wandering resulted in purchases. No surprise there since post-writing is heavy reading time. A few of my book choices this time around came from seeing covers on MySpace and then seeing the books [...]

MySpace: The Wedding Edition

Sunday, September 16th, 2007

Every now and then you want to read a book about a wedding. It can be a runaway bride romance or a former-boyfriend-steals-away-his-ex-before-she-can-get-married story or a matchmaking tale or something similar. To satisfy those cravings, I give you the following books I discovered through MySpace:

MySpace: The Provocative Title Edition

Sunday, September 9th, 2007

I’ve admitted my love of a good book title. A few times this week I checked out a book solely because I saw the title on MySpace.
The first is The Dead Father’s Club by Matt Haig. I admit to being utterly fascinated by this book. The cover says:
A hilarious and touching [...]

MySpace: The Witch Edition

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

My Ode to MySpace is a day late. Blame the holiday. That’s my plan.
Unlike seemingly every other romance author on the planet, I don’t write paranormals. The only otherworldly route I would even think of taking as a writer would be to write about witches. Not gonna, but I do like [...]

MySpace: The Heaven and Hell Edition

Sunday, August 26th, 2007

First, if you’re taking part in the Seventy Days of Sweat Challenge, go over to Larissa’s blog and soak up a bit of inspiration and then check in with your word count.
Quite a few book covers on MySpace caught my attention this week. The first, To Hell With Love by Sherri Erwin, [...]

MySpace: The Beginning

Sunday, August 19th, 2007

It’s time for a new feature. I think of this as the I’m-obsessed-with-covers-and-you-should-be-too feature. This came about while checking out my MySpace page this morning. Seemed I had several friends requests pending. And, yes, this is what happens when one does not check on the MySpace page for quite some time. [...]
