Blog Tour #2 Introducing Jaleta Clegg!
I was born some time ago. I've filled the years since dabbling in many things - cooking, sewing, rock hounding, costuming, quilting, slaughtering virtual zombies, freeing zillions of Snoods, and of course, much storytelling. I caught the writing bug over fifteen years ago although I've only recently reached publication status. My first novel, Nexus Point: The Fall of the Altairan Empire Book One, came out in December. The second one is scheduled for release in early 2011.

And the case of the 8-yr-old boy who was bullied so badly that he jumped out the second story window of his school during class. He lived, tha...

Sad But Sweet
From the New Zealand Herald:
Inseparable for 15 years, zoo's otters die together
They were inseparable in life, so it is perhaps not surprising that they went together in death. When one of Natureland Zoo's two male otter old-timers died last week, his longtime companion was unable to carry on life alone. It is believed Daz, 19, and Chip, 16 - both having lived to ripe old ages for otters - died of heart attacks within an hour of each other.
"The biggest consolation for us was that we weren't le...
