November Days


I don't know why but I've always loved November. I think it might be the coming of winter and Christmas that warms my heart each year. Or perhaps its becasue its my beautiful son's birth month.... hard to believe he's 12 already... or maybe it's just that November is a special month in it's own right. the way all months are special. It's crisp fall days.... first snowfalls of the season.... pumpkin pie and warm apple cider. It's pulling out the cable knit fisherman sweater and cocooning yourself in wool scarves to hit the shopping malls and cozy blankets for chilly nights at home with a great book. I love toasting my feet on the heater pouring out warm air while fervently typing my next best seller, between sips of hot chocolate or mocha lattes. Whatever the reason... though likely a combination of all the above, I love November and I couldn't let this special month go by without a post. I invite you to enjoy it while it lasts too!


 Candy Cane Hot Chocolate, mmmmmmm.....

Ingredients

  • 4 cups of milk
  • 3 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, chopped

The Magic of Disneyworld

I spent a week in Disneyworld with my 11yr. old son and my mom. It was a first visit for all three of us, and it was beyond anything I could have imagined. It truly is a magical place. I mean I could feel it in the air, in every person I talked to and in everything we did & saw. I was totally immersed in the possibility of what if? And was awe struck by the visual and sensual manifested representation of one man's larger than life dream. One cannot help but be powerfully reminded that dreams really can and do come true, if you just believe. It serves to ask oneself....what do you believe is possible for you? Or a better question is, what would your ultimate wildest most wonderful dream be, and then decide that no matter how big or small, realistic or outrageous it may seem to you or to others, it can and will come true because you just believe!!!

Everyone should get a psychic reading....seriously!!!

Today I had a reading with my favourite psychic....Hans Christian King. From the first moment I listened to his radio program years ago, I was hooked. And I knew he had a direct link to the things about myself that I know but had either forgotten or didn't know I knew. Confused yet? Sorry....but it's not something I can explain without going into yards of explanation on quantum physics and the nature of reality. For lack of a better quote at my fingertips, I'll simply say you are what you think you are, and leave it at that.

But suffice to say, my first ever personal reading with Hans exceeded even my wildest expectations. I've had the opportunity to converse with him on his weekly show where members can send in one question and receive the answer on air. That in itself is wroth it's weight in gold, with every single answer begin spot on or delivering the information, perspective or reassurance i needed to move confidently through whatever issue or project was before me.

So I had great expectations for my 30 minute call with Hans. I felt like a kid at Christmas when the telephone rang right on time. And we delved into the issues I wondered about, worried about or felt were blocking me on my path. At the end of it all I left with a renewed enlightenment and awakened enthusiasm for what is to come. I cannot recommend him highly enough!!!

Six Sentence Sunday

Here we are back again for another magical SIX! In case you're just tuning in, that's code for a weekly six sentence excerpt from my latest manuscript posted each week, to hopefully tempt you into wanting to read more. Much more.

In light of my romantic mood left over from my recent 14th year wedding anniversary, here is yet another kissy scene...well technically it's more of a pre-kiss scene, between Lorelei and Adrius from my YA manuscript Fire and Ice. She's curious about the spark she gets everytime they touch.

Visit the Six Sentence Sunday website to indulge in more sensational sixes to whet the appetite and drive you nuts with anticipation!


“So, if I were to, say... lean in and kiss you—”
“You want to kiss me?” His eyes lit with wicked amusement.
“Hypothetically speaking.” I countered , my pulse accelerating.
“Alright.” He said as his mouth twitched into a faint smirk, “Well, hypothetically it would be like a mild electric shock— not strong enough to stop your heart, but, you would definitely feel it."

SIX SENTENCE SUNDAY

This is the final week of tweaking and polishing my novel before I send that baby out into the big bright shiny world . So in honor of that monumental graduation of FIRE AND ICE, and in celebration of the commencement on the second book in the Faerie Song series; BITTERSWEET, I bring you a fresh Six Sentence Sunday snippet.

I'd welcome any opinions/suggestions on this little dance sequence between the YA heroine Loralye and her heart-thob Elven boyfriend Adrius. I can vividly picture what I have in mind, but not sure if it comes across in words. What do you think? (bear in mind I'd just finished watching the movie Dirty Dancing for the hundredth time...check out the mini clip below)

And don't forget to peruse the Six Sentence website for more delicious sixes! All comments are welcomed, encouraged, and on occasion, paid for..........just kidding!

 “I can’t think clearly when you do that?” I said over the steady pump of vibrating bass.
 With another sharp twirl, I was facing him again, his arms locked around my waist.
 “You mean this?” He anchored his hand under my thigh, drawing my leg up around his hip as he dipped me back in a deep plunge. His nose swept the arc of my body and he pressed his lips to the hollow of my throat. My breath hitched as he placed the briefest kiss, before pulling me upright.
 “Yes,” I gasped, breathless, “That.”
