Change the Past? by Sarah Raplee
REMEMBER HOT PANTS?
Instead of going back in time to change one major thing in my life, I
would like to change a few small things that would have made life more
pleasant. Like that time I bought 'hot pants' just because they were in style. Or
the time I let my husband talk me into buying a silver Chevy Citation with a
butt-ugly-shade-of-red interior. I was never comfortable in either one

Regrets—Maybe Yes, Maybe No!
by Courtney Pierce
Being a child of the sixties, it’s a no-brainer to recall a litany of bonehead antics from my past that I might want to change. A few of those teenage misbehaves, like sneaking over
to the boys’ camp from the girls’ camp to skinny dip, would be tough to let go. I was ten years old in 1969—too young to go to concerts
and too old for my Easy-Bake Oven. I made hippie clothes

Setting Goals to Propel My Writing to the Next Level by Kathy Coatney
FALLING IN LOVE SERIES
When I was offered the opportunity to write this blog for
Romancing the Genres about taking my writing to the next level, it came just as
I was investing some real time into marketing my books on Facebook (FB).
I have limited fiction writing time because I’m also a
freelance photojournalist/editor. I write at least three articles a month and
edit three different

Back To The Future?
Hindsight is human nature but we'd drive ourselves crazy if we spent too much time in 'if only' land.
I've reached a point in my life where (thankfully) I can look back at bad decisions, or missed opportunities and say 'that's the past, what have you learned from that?'
Have you seen The Butterfly Effect movies? Characters
travel back in time to change decisions, actions, that they

If I Could Change One Thing in My Past... by Delsora Lowe
Truthfully, I can’t imagine changing anything in my life,
even the dreadful experiences of losing a job, or my sister, favorite aunt, and
dad, and friends. Strange as it seems, and despite my longing to have all those
people back in my life, the things, good or bad, have shaped who I am.

A Lunar Anniversary...by Kristin Wallace
Did you know there's a historic anniversary coming up this month? 50 years ago - on July 20, 1969 - Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon. Minutes later, Buzz Aldrin joined him. Armstrong’s line “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” remains one of the most iconic statements in history.

Breaking Away from the Crowd
By Courtney Pierce
Today I have the opportunity to expand beyond my regular post as a Genre-ista to guest blog about this crazy writing biz. As I tap away on the draft of
my seventh book, Big Sky Talk, I'm pleased to say that the hefty word count in my
literary backpack has earned me the “write” to impart some wisdom. It's a tough business that I now take quite seriously. It didn't start out

Could I have just one more. . .
by Diana McCollum
As many of you have said, I wouldn't change anything I've experienced in my life because all the good and bad have made me the person I am today.
My one regret, I wish that I could have just one more day with my mom before she went into the lost her memory completely. The last 2 weeks at the memory care home she wasn't present, she was confused and upset all the time. The

If there was one thing in your life you'd change, what is it and why? by Lynn Lovegreen
I am lucky to have a pretty good life so far. There aren’t many things I would change, although I wish I were kinder at certain times. (My apologies to those out there that I hurt or treated badly.) Even the bad stuff in my life taught me lessons and helped me grow and become a better person. But if I had to change one thing, it would be the deaths of people I loved.
