The One Pulse Benefit Anthology is here!

Forget my shock and dismay September 19th is here already, [how many shopping days until Christmas??]]. The One Pulse Benefit Anthology is here and ready for the top of your gift-giving list. One copy for you, and one for each of the MM Romance lovers in your life.

Stories drive life. Sometimes life is good; sometimes life is bad. But it’s the nature of our community that in the aftermath of an act of hatred, we respond with love. Because darkness cannot exist in the presence of light. Cruelty cannot stand against compassion. Negativity will never overcome hope.
To show our support for those affected by the Orlando shooting, our authors, editors, artists, and staff have volunteered their talents to create this anthology. All proceeds will be donated to LGBT organizations in central Florida. Join us as we celebrate the triumph of love over every obstacle.

Includes my short story, EVERYTHING I NEED
Joshua would be happy to run off to Vegas to marry his fiancé, but Michael’s big family expects him to follow tradition with an equally big wedding—even though he’s marrying another guy.

The Back-to-School Restart. Not just for students

Wheeeeeoooooooo! Before I start this post let's pause and take a deep inhale -- ready?-- Breath In--a little more--a little more---Hold it!  Now, let it go in a big whoosh, feeling your shoulders drop--E---x---h---a--l---e. Feel any better? I sure do.

Is anyone else saying "thank goodness it's almost September"?. Normally I'd be panicking up a storm so much time has passed already in this year. But, as you might have been able to tell from my erratic online presence, I'm ready for this summer to be over. It seems like Chez Munder has been racing around since the end of May, and baby, we're tired. It's been festive, don't get me wrong. But unlike a kid dragging their feet at the back to school sales, I'm eagerly anticipating the return of my regular routines.

Somehow in the midst of all the chaos I managed to produce a story available in the Dreamspinner Press One Pulse Anthology in September. More details on that will follow. But for right now, I just wanted to wave hello! and share a deep breath while I put away the flip-flops and get ready for fall.

My Top Pick for #NationalNotebookDay

Happy May 19th everyhone! Yes, it's #NationalNotebookDay and it's kind of like Cinco de Mayo for stationery lovers. Basically just a big ol' party Complete with margaritas if you are so inclined. We've had a lot going on Chez Munder, including FatBoy Kitty once again being ill and needing lots of time and attention, but I wanted to hop on and share my latest love in honor of this oh so momentous day. It's the Filofax Refillable Notebook. Available on Amazon in a great collection of sizes and colors! (pretty!pretty!) and in this clip, reviewed by Brian Goulet of Goulet Pens.



Did this video review make your heart beat faster? Can you imagine the possibilities? Wouldn't this make a great bullet type journal? A story notebook? A meal or fitness planner? Webinar or class notebook? With great colors, dividers, and refillable pages of all kinds (lined, graph, and blank), honestly, what's not to love? Are you celebrating #NationalNotebookDay? Do you have a favorite notebook you couldn't live without? Let me know!

Gearing up for Summer with today's #healthwednesday No-Machine 2 ingredient Ice Cream!

I may be just a little giddy with the lack of snow AND the improved health of the FatBoy Kitty, but the switch is going to flip, and it's going to be 80 degrees and mid-summer before I know it. At least, that was my excuse for trying out this #healthywednesday recipe. And wow! I'm not a huge banana lover but this hit the spot. Try it and let me know what you think!
