Criminal Minds "Internet"

Loved it!!

Reid, deadpan: I don't have email.
He does seem the quill and parchment type. Maybe papyrus.

And I share much of Rossi's opinion on social networking sites. "Scones! Yummy!"

That aside, it was a chilling and well written episode. Poor Garcia! I love that she's soft hearted and innocent, hefty, geeky, brilliant, and colorful. What a great character.

Guest Blogger: Meet Rob Thurman!

Lynn and I are doing swap promos, and as I've read Lynn since LUCK IN THE SHADOWS first came out…thrilled? Yep, that's the word. Normally I would be promoting my Cal Leandros Novels (urban fantasy, and although it is often compared to the TV show Supernatural, I did have the idea for six years. It then took a year to write, three to sell and then two more to get to the bookstore shelves. That it came out at the same time as Supernatural debuted was just my good luck. I have quite a few SPN fa...

Cruise News

For those of you going on the cruise, I hope you are finding lots of good information on the Royal Caribbean website.

Here's the useful link on what to pack, including guidelines for the various levels of "Formal" and "Casual" for the dining room. Tuxes and gowns NOT required. And tuxes can be rented from the ship in advance, so you have to buy one to go all "Bond, James Bond."

Dread

I have so much to do today, and I feel uneasy. I've reached a "beat head against wall until next plot point falls out" glitch with the book. Always happen. It will pass. The clouds will clear and I'll see my way. But right now I'm not there and I hate being here, waiting. Other Project is fighting me, too.

Then again, sometimes I make great leaps on days like this. We'll see.
