Do You Ever Get Irrationally Offended?
I try to think of myself as a patient, reasonably thinking person. (Hubby might disagree with this, but we're talking MY POV) I do my best to be circumspect about most things, because getting all blustery about stuff just wastes energy and might get in the way of a solution.
But some days, you just wanna screw reason.
I was reading posts somewhere today and some of the things said were driving me up a wall, in particular advice from an experience writer to newbies. I won't go into what was...

"All Of You" Is Turned In!
Wheeee! Now, of course, comes the rounds of editing where my editor flexes her Grammatic muscles all over my under-educated ass and sharpens it to damn-good quality. I'm sure I'll grumble–a lot–but the books really do turn out so much cleaner and make a hell of a lot more sense because of her.
So, now I'm going to get caught up on a bunch of stuff, get back to work on fixing this blog and get started talking about Raul.
Yup, you guessed it. "Burn For You" will be out in a MONTH! Conveniently...

What Makes An Erotic Romance…Erotic?
Is it the number of love scenes or the amount of space between the scenes?
I asked this question on Twitter and Facebook and I was really surprised at the difference in the answers…
" i think how descriptive/graphic the love scenes is what pushes it over that line"–@limecello
"IMHO neither. What makes a book an "erotic romance" is if the sex is an intricate part of the plot–moving it forward.. I often think too many authors think if they add certain words, that makes a book "erotic". I don't...

The Sickie Returns…
Much to my dismay, heading back to the dr today. The lungs are starting to fill with concrete, it feels like, and you don't want to know what I've been coughing up.
I have this fantasy where I wake up and there's nothing wrong with me. Or anyone else. I'm starting to think being tired is just the way everyone feels, lol. But hey, I downloaded a demo of Katamari Damashi 3 and if all else fails, ten minutes of that will make me feel much better.
Along with the heavy cough medicine.

Back To School Cool…
Or rather, the back to school cold.
Yup, Bubba brought a bug home. Since I still have a residual cough and occasional wheeze left from the pneumonia, I didn't quite realize that I'd caught it, but I did. Watery eyes, stuffy, runny nose and…yup, a cough. Luckily, it's not as bad as it could have been and will probably blow itself out in another couple of days, but man…
So, going to take the next few days to keep working out my deadline and get the rest of the year organized. Then, a new...

This Is Better…
I think I'll be customizing the background a little more, but I finally feel like I have my sexy stockings on again.
I've been doing quite a bit of working lately, but I think I'll be back to blogging each morning again (weekdays) from now on. It's time.
Sadly, I'm not at all sure what I'm going to say. Planning to have the kids over–at least one–next week as she's on break and she misses me. (The babies prolly have a lot to do with that too, lol, not to mention her sister.)
Oh, did I mention ...

Monday again
Okay, so I've been tying up business stuff, catching up, diving through the laundry and getting ready for the annual eHQ Open House, so…sadly, plates been full and the blog has a'suffered.
First off–thank you FF, for the resend! It was adorable! And I could have sworn I had picked that up for them! Am bad friend.
Second, I am just about at the space where I can recolorize THIS blog and feel a wee bit better about myself, lol. Maybe by Wednesday. Then I should be back here daily.
Tell me y'all...

Apologies!!
Okay, I'm going to be creating my own theme soon, but this one is nice and soothing, so going with it for a time.
But if it makes anyone feel better, here's what's been keeping me busy:

Until I figure out what happened…
I've switched databases and…sob, started my blog all over it seems. Three years is a long time to lose, but I've got it all backed up.
I'm hoping it can be fixed.
So, starting new. Now to figure out what the heck to talk about!
