Just a little romance...
Can there ever be such a thing? When the subject of this BlogHop was announced, I pondered for some time over the content. (Actually I was waiting for my coffee to perk, but pondering seemed like a good thing to do right then.)
The way I see it, thoughts of romance vary as we make our irregular and unique paths through our lives. From the moment when we first sigh as the Prince kisses Snow

Today's Headline: Is it ME or the MEDIA?
Of late I have found myself ranting. Yes, seriously. I am shocked...shocked, I say. There have been more than a few events which have made me grit my teeth hard (I even cracked a crown), pace my floors, and repress the urge to scream bloody murder.
The cause of all this angst and anguish? The media.
Life is rich with challenges. Some are good challenges, some bad. We can't control what

Time for a Gentle Spanking!
No, this isn't anything to do with "that" book. This is something that's been bugging me for a while now and it's bad enough that I feel the urge to blog about it.
MANNERS!!! Courtesy, politeness, good manners, decorum, whatever you'd like to call it, it's GONE. The ability to communicate pleasantly with another human being. Or even your dog. Why every greeting needs to involve the words "

Thirty-Two Shades of GREEN!!!
It's time somebody said what every erotic romance writer has been thinking for the last few weeks. What the BLEEP is going on? How come an erotic BDSM romance has become the talk of the literary town? Why is every television personality clutching a copy like it was a canteen of water and they're stuck in the middle of the Gobi desert at high noon? Why is every interviewer on every evening

A Different Take on... Amanda McIntyre
One of the best things about writing is the people you meet - the friends you make whose path you would otherwise never have crossed. For me, Amanda McIntyre fits that bill. Besides the fact she's a terrific writer with an imagination that a corkscrew would envy sometimes when it comes to "twisted", she is also a wonderful friend. Funny, giving and visionary in so many ways, Amanda has shared a

Are we there yet?
This morning I read an interesting article on MSNBC.com whose headline caught my eye: "FAA predicts space tourism will be $1 billion industry by 2022".
Well all righty then. Let me grab my carryon. The one with the anti-grav clamps that is designed to float in the overhead compartment. Truthfully I'm not sure exactly WHERE this tourism industry is going to be located. Visions of Risa, that

Surrendering to the Chocolate Demon
A Cautionary Tale of Lust and Desire. And a really big Hammer.
Like many of you reading this, I'm doing the "It's the New Year, so I have to diet" thing. And so far so good. I love berries, which appear to be ripe, sweet and plentiful at the moment, and when topped with a squirt of canned whipped cream (a ridiculously low number of calories) covers the dessert issue nicely. All well and good. [

A Different Take On... S.L. Carpenter
I'm so happy to welcome my first guest - S.L. Carpenter, author of the best-selling story OWNED (Samhain), Art Director for Samhain Publishing, my BFF and all-around great guy.
Scott, we know about your wonderfully crafted - and occasionally wonderfully twisted - books. And we've all seen your superb cover art on so many best-selling novels including your own. During many of your interviews you

Why is a paperback novel like a hat?
There's got to be a funny punchline here...and someone will post it for me, I hope. However, that goofy question really does have a point. Which, naturally, I'm going to get to - after meandering around it a bit.
Last month I took a train trip along the Northeast Corridor, and since it is now winter (yes, that's what the calendar says), I donned what I felt was a whimsical tribute to the days of
