The Snippet
“In you go, you lot,” Robin cackled. “I dare you!”
“There is no need for dares, you rotted potato!” Ketil grumbled. “We was, in any case, going to enter this place not well to enter even before you came along.”
“There is no need to refer to me as a rotted potato, you hothead!” Robin shot back. “Take meself to Sweden and gnaw on your tough old jerky of a carcass, I ought. Just for spite, I might.”
“It matters nothing to me as I am not using it,” Ketil returned.Get the Book

Transportation: MFRW Book Hooks 23 September 2020
http://mfrwbookhooks.blogspot.com
The Blurb
Geeky Gandy Stafford's lifelong fantasy comes true when he meets the otherworldly Dorma and Desyra. These last remnants of a botched extraterrestrial invasion discover that they require a great deal of energy to maintain their human forms.
The easiest way to obtain essential power?
Sex, and lots of it.
The Snippet
Having finished his tasks for the night, Gandy invited the aliens to ride with him in his 1975 Ford Pinto.
“This car is kind of a zero,” he apologized. “I don’t know how it even keeps running.”
“It is transportation,” Desyra said matter-of-factly.
“Yeah, that’s true. Transportation it is. Hopefully, it will transport us to my place without a problem. Okay, so I live in a little townhouse by myself, but my pops owns it, and we’ll have to be quiet. My neighbors are kind of busybodies, and they’d be more than happy to tell my old man that I brought home a couple of girls. He probably wouldn’t believe anything happened, so I guess it really doesn’t matter, though. Say, your people are pretty advanced, right? Why don’t you just take over the planet?”
“That was our fleet’s orders. But there are only two of us now.”

About Me Monday Peeve: Don't Try To Be All Things to Everyone
My son has a cold. It's such fun living in an era when a common cold strikes terror into the heart. He was filling in a hole yesterday and got very sweaty. Then it clouded up and started flashing lightning and cooled down a fair bit, so he ended up with a chill.
I have to take the car to the body shop for repairs and will need to have a rental for a few days. This old dude rear-ended me while I was making a left turn. Fortunately, it wasn't a high enough impact to deploy the airbags. If it isn't one thing it's ten others.
The place where I get most of my income these days is doing book reviews, which isn't as much fun as it sounds like it would be. It's actually very stressful. I am also working on my own writing. You know, those grand literary efforts that I share in this hallowed space.
I keep learning the hard way that I shouldn't try to be all things to everyone. I took on two unpaid book reviews for people outside the Online Book Club. (This doesn't count the review that I did as an in-kind favor for a fellow author in return for a guest spot on their blog.)
Gratis guest posts are one thing because the author is responsible for creating the post themselves. I just plug in the HTML on my book review blog. It's an easy way for me to help aspiring authors. Reviews, on the other hand, take up a huge amount of time, and that impacts my income because I'm doing volunteer reviews instead of paid reviews. It also impacts my ability to work on my own material because my brain is toast.
I reworked my literary services page (https://ornerybookemporium.blogspot.com/p/ornery-literary-services.html) to reflect the fact that I will now only do book reviews for either a $25 fee or an in-kind trade. I have zero advertising budget, so if someone gives me a guest spot on their blog to spread the word about my work, that is a huge help.
Part of the problem lies in the fact that I would love to review each and every book that I have an opportunity to promote. They all sound so fascinating. If I were independently wealthy, I would stop doing the paid reviews for Online Book Club and only do volunteer reviews. However, the one bad brain that I have doesn't possess the ability to review two books in a day plus write my own content.
I have to complete a book review approximately every other day to make at least $500 per month. Unfortunately, I am not able to make a living as an author at this point.
No more volunteering time I don't have. I've always been bad about doing this.
If I don't take care of me, how the hell am I gonna take care of anybody else?
And no, I am not a "bad person" for needing to look out for Number One.
I'm a slow learner.

Fellow broke folk, please consider using Silver Dagger Tours to promote your book. I am not being compensated for telling you this. I just started doing guest spots for them and am going to use them to promote my own books. I just wanted to tell you about them because they are the bomb. Check them out!
https://www.silverdaggertours.com/I've loved this song for decades. It reminds me that I need to take care of myself, which is something I've never been good about.

http://www.facebook.com/groups/snippetsundayThe NotesLast time, Robin annoyed Ketil with his speculations regarding Yitzy.
The Snippet“Apologies for me partner,” the large ghoul interjected, again doffing his newsboy cap. “We are new to the Land of Xura, but we have heard of you and the House of Lost Dreams, Ketil Nagel. I am John Tamboli the Tambourine Man, otherwise known as Little John, and this is my bosom companion Robin Roberts, or Robin Hood, as he prefers.”
“Yes, well, I am sure he has robbed many hoods,” Ketil quipped. “It is nice to make your acquaintance at any rate, Little John. I am not yet convinced of the pleasure of making Big Robin’s acquaintance, but my friend Yitzy has instilled in me the belief that one should avoid making hasty judgments, and possibly hasty puddings, if one is not well versed in cooking such. All humor aside, however, I am not sure it would be well for a ghoul to enter this house. It is my experience that ghouls not born ghoul become ghouls because of traumatic circumstances, and this house has a tendency to try and make one relive their traumas. Regardless of what you may have heard, there is no gold, glory, nor benevolent magic to be found in this malign structure.”
“But adventure there is, yes?” Robin inquired, holding the door open for his companions.

Readers Roost: First Line Friday Flash Fiction 18 September 2020
Check it out to discover some great new flash fiction. All of these stories were standouts!
I am currently working on three book reviews. I need to learn not to double-book (or triple-book) myself. The pun wasn't intended, but it is appropriate.

Do the Dude: MFRW Blog Challenge Week 38
Do I do the dude?
If I didn't have the libido of a flat tire lying on the side of the road collecting dust, I would do the dude, because that is how I'm wired. But this isn't about my sexual orientation or my dead-in-the-water libido that I don't want to revive and would straight-up kill anyone attempting to resuscitate it.
The question for this week's MFRW Blog Challenge is:
Week 38: MM Books: write them? Read them? Why or why not?
The later books in the Carnal Invasion series have a lot of man to man action in them. I definitely write M-M.
Most of my M-M reading has been in the fan fiction department. And yes, I do ship the above ship. As a wise soul said, those guys do not have a brotherly vibe.
Regarding romance, I often like reading M-M romance better than M-F. It may be just as full of tropes and cliches, but to my untrained eye, they aren't quite as glaring. M-M seems more authentic.
So, the answer to this week's question is yes and yes.

FOAD Thursday: I Hate the New Blogger Interface
The new Blogger interface can FOAD.
Do you know who fargles up a perfectly simple interface, Blogger?
What he said.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Fortunately for Blogger, I hate Wordpress even worse.
That is all. I just had to bitch about it to help myself refocus.
