Gorgeous Thursday morning, the 10th of November
I know, I know, I'm one big sick puppy -- my level is nearly all Christmasized with wrapped presents filling the room and the landing outside my office as well -- never thought to do that before. You walk down the stairs and BLAM! there it is and you smile so big. It's different this year because of all the fantastical MacKenzie Childs furnishings, but such fun -- Yep, when all is done, all the presents wrapped I'll make a video. If you're wondering why so early with the decorating, it's because it's so very involved and the guests/parties begin the first week in December --
If you're painting a room then you're good with the bat wings, but if you're not, then you have to use weights or isometrics or the stretchy bands. Bat wings for Christmas aren't good even though you're wearing long sleeves, because the Christmas minions
will know and they'll put nasty notes in your Christmas stockings. Not good, so work on those beautiful arms so you can wave them around and the minions will cheer.
Change is always scary, but the trick is to face it with optimism (and guacamole). A couple of prayers thrown in can't hurt. Never forget how very lucky we are in this world of bad stuff and turmoil.

I'm Baaaack!
Halloween's coming up fast, the day the zombies burst out of the ground and terrify the crap out of us, not to mention eat our candy and eat our brains.

Halloween's coming up fast, the day the zombies burst out of the ground and terrify the crap out of us, not to mention eat our candy and eat our brains.
Update on BOMBSHELL, the 17th FBI Thriller: I'm nearly finished with the edit. The cover is very cool, explodes with eye-popping color. BOMBSHELL is set in Maestro, Va., (the setting of the 10th FBI thriller, POINT BLANK) and in Washington.
JEWEL OF THE LION (first thriller in A Brit in the FBI series partnered with J.T. Ellison). JEWEL moves fast and you don't know what's going to happen on the next page, and you're biting your toenails or a zombie's toenails. J.T. is an excellent plotter and that means when we brainstorm no plot gets left behind.
Alas, no kids want candy enough to crawl up our oxygen-deprived steep driveway, and the sad thing is, I still have a big bowl of candy, every year, but no one comes, not even the zombies with brain bags.
Take care, Catherine
