Weekly Check In Wednesday

Morning Loverlies!

It's Wednesday already and with Wednesday comes the weekly check in. Yes, I know I'm not so good at making sure I check in every Wednesday or blogging all the days I'm supposed to but I'm trying and in the end that's what really matters, right?

No? Well darn. Anywho. Last week I finally, FINALLY finished my first edits for Make Me Remember. I totally learned a very valuble lesson during these edits. Don't get complacent. OMG! Make Me Remember is a re-release. It was...

Snippet Saturday – Family

Morning Loverlies,

Yes, it's snippet Saturday! Snippet Saturday is hosted by the totally kick ass Lauren Dane . Today's theme is the Family. I have another snippet from Seducing St. Nic for because a big part of Seducing St. Nic is family.

In this excerpt we see Barbara Jean and the way she interacts with her brother, sister-in-law, niece and nephew. I hope you enjoy Barbara J...

Thank you Mr. Whedon

The words Girl Power have been said before but no one has said it/expressed it as succinctly as Joss Whedon. He created the most iconic, kick ass female character in the history of female characters.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, love her or hate her you have to admit that she was a positive image for girls and women of all ages.

Sure, she was flawed. Sure, she made mistakes. But that's what made her so incredibly awesome.

The other day I watched the final season for the first time. And I can admit ...

Music Monday: (Lady) GaGa Madness

Morning Loverlies,

Week after week I try to choose Music Monday picks of song that I like or that are my favs. Today I'm trying something different. I haven't been bashful about my…opinion of Lady GaGa. It's not her as a person, seriously I wouldn't know the woman if I passed her on the street unless she had one of her unique get ups on. It's more of her sense of fashion (or lack thereof) her lyrics and her over "a drag queen wouldn't even go that far" the top videos.

But since I'm me and...

Snippet Saturday – The Black Moment

Morning Loverlies,

WTFFriday: Are Missing Black Children Not Newsworthy?

Morning Loverlies,

[image error] I've interrupted Romancelandia's Angry Ass Mobs 101 because I have something more important on my mind than adult cyber bullies with too much time on their hands. Don't worry, I know and understand Romancelandia's Angry Ass Mobs and its victims are important but in my opinion children are way, way, way more important.

Music Monday: Need You Now

Morning Loverlies,

It's the 2nd week of March already and seriously, is it just me or is this year just flying by?

I could have sword I already picked today's Music Monday pick but nothing showed up when I searched for it. So I guess we're in luck. I love Lady Antebellum and I absolutely love their song, Need You Now. I think the first time I heard it was on the CMAs and I downloaded it immediately. I love the lyrics, the music, everything. But most of all I love it because I've been there.
