Moline, Illinois has a lovely airport. It’s small, maybe twelve gates, but it has some nice comfy chairs, and an area of cubicles with plug-ins for your electronics. There are some very nice people there that helped my husband, Jon, and I, on Monday when United Airlines lost us.
Yep, you read that last part right. United Airlines lost us, not our luggage, but us. We got off the plane from Denver and there was nothing in our paperwork, or in the computer, that said we should have been in Molin...

Avengers for Mother’s Day!
Avengers totally rocked! An adventure movie where the action rocked, but so did the characterization, the dialogue, the humor and the poignant moments. Favorite bit of dialogue, “Puny, god.”
Loved what they did with Black Widow played by Scarlett Johansson. Her fight scenes were every bit as good as any of the others, and that meant they were amazing. I don’t know if they had a better fight coordinator, or if Ms. Johansson had hit the gym, or they had a better fight...

They will hate you. Someone, somewhere, sometime, will hate you. It is going to happen at some point in your life, probably several times. You can’t be nice enough, or good enough, or scary enough, or bully enough, to prevent them from hating you.
Why will they hate you? So many reasons, here are just a few.
They may hate you for the color of your skin, your sexual orientation, that you’re prettier than they are, that you’re uglier than they are, more popular, less popular, your religion, your...

We had over 918 entries..We asked which Merry Gentry book was your favorite, and the winner was Lick Of Frost. Swallowing Darkness came in a close 2nd. And then A Kiss of Shadows was 3rd. And of course, there were the “cheaters” who couldn’t make up their minds! There were some that picked an Anita book as their favorite instead of Merry. But we still added you all to the random drawing file to have a chance to win an Audio Book from one of the Laurell K Hamilton series…your choice….of what...

So many of you have asked, or said, you can’t wait until it comes out, so . . . Here’s a sneak peek at Beauty the too hot to handle outtake from Kiss the Dead which comes out as an eSpecial May 8, 2012:
“I finally let myself look at that face, and I felt like I had from almost the first moment I’d seen him, that he was simply one of the most beautiful men I’d ever seen. The black curls touched the edge of his face, as if bringing attention to the curve of his mouth, the line of his cheek, and...

Whenever I tweet, FaceBook, or blog, that I had to delete a perfectly good scene because it no longer worked with the plot of the current book, a lot of you ask to see the scene. You’ve even suggested that I share my Anita outtake file with you. Well, guess what, Beauty, the eSpecial that everyone’s been asking me about is an outtake from Kiss the Dead. It’s a sex scene that unfortunately had to be cut, because character decisions made it impossible as written. More unfortunately it was the s...
