Wenchy Wednesday
Recently I became part of a group of writers who call themselves the Wenches of Words so, starting this week, I'm highlighting one of my fellow wenches every Wednesday on Wenchy Wednesday. I hope you enjoy these fun posts from a talented and truly fascinating group of writers!

Sam’s Sunday Snippet
When she hits the writer's block of all writer's blocks, Lindsey Prince thinks her muse has abandoned her. But she opens her door one day to find a gorgeous new one standing there, "anxious" to help her finish her current project. There's only one problem... her new muse, Zahn, has been turned purple by Calliope, Chief of the Muses, for indulging in Purple Prose. Unfortunately, his fate rests on Lindsey submitting a purple prose free manuscript to her editor. No pressure there.

Once again Sam Cheever presents her readers with a fascinating hero completely worthy of worship. I am a huge fan of the Honeybun clan and just when I think no one can win me over more than the last leading man along comes a new one.

Thursday Tidbit – My Literary Garden
Like many professionals, I'm sure, I often think about whether I'm doing the right things for my career. There's no magic formula for success. If there were we'd all be successful. There are definitely some key factors that improve your chances of attaining success...work hard, be tenacious, keep learning and growing in your profession, and pay it forward when you catch a break. All great tenets and I've tried to follow each of them. But from that point on I'm on my own. And rather than having all the answers, I find that more and more I'm inundated with questions.

Bringing Bobby’s Gym into the twenty-first century should have been fun. But the dead guy draped over the weight machine definitely took the joy out of it!

Antiques can be a dangerous business. Especially when you’re dealing with a desperate politician, a sexy ex-cop, and a couple of “spirited” companions.

Thursday Twisted Links: Everything is Linked Somehow!
Cave walls were the stone age man's War and Peace. Tablets were his flash fiction.

Something strange is going on in Grooster, Indiana. Nightly Satanic rituals in the park and the infusion of drugs into the community have everyone on edge. When Clancy Rogers' daughter, The Princess, comes up missing, Clancy takes to the proverbial trail to find her.
