Home Again, Home Again

I know I have moved the blog all over the place lately. I apologize. I've been trying to find a free alternative for my website/blog since DH lost his job. When I'm a little number than I currently am, I'll blog about that, too.

For now, this is our permanent home. I have a nifty program that lets me design WordPress templates now, so I'm sure y'all know to expect the scenery to change with my mood.

I'm feeling darker these days, so I'm basking in black. Next month, who knows?

My Little Pony Gone Wrong

A lot of you know my mom is a big collector of all things My Little Pony. Sometimes the search for new MLP goodies lead to very interesting things, such as a uniporn photo shoot on the website listed below.

If you're brave enough, or curious enough, I'll leave it up to you whether or not you want this image burned into your brain.

For the curious, here you go.

Six Sentence Sunday

[image error]

This week's excerpt is from Milo's book.

"Get over yourself, Shaw."

The rumble in his chest vibrated through hers. "I'd rather get you over my knee." His hands slid down her arms, across her waist, and around until he cupped her bottom in his hands. Kneading her lean curves, he said, "I should spank your pretty little ass for sharing any part of yourself with someone else, so don't tempt me. You won't like the consequences."

One Star Amazon Review

We all know feedback is important. No matter how long you've been writing, there is always room for improvement. The more you write, the better you get. Simple, right?
