The Nook by Barnes & Nobel has totally sucked me in. Totally and utterly seduced me. I want it like a fat kid wants cake. I need to have it and need to have it soon. Which means most likely after Christmas. Because the Nook is $259.00 before adding the cool accessories, which include a [...]

I liked it! First off, I never saw the original V. That was before I was into science fiction/fantasy stuff. A bonus for me is that many of the characters I was introduced to in the first episode were from shows I was a fan of and are either off the air or I can’t [...]

…the Amazon Kindle. Or maybe the Sony Reader. Or maybe the Barnes & Noble Nook. It used to be I was seriously dead set against it. I’m a reader who loves the printed page. Though I’ve purchased them, I’ve never really enjoyed reading e-books on my computer. Number one, I’m tied [...]

I was reading through all my files and notes on Tama and Zed’s story. Hmmm…
There are two different stories in there. The characters, and their voices, are the same. The plots? Not so much. Two wildly different ends of the spectrum.
Where the heck was I going with these? I love them both because they both [...]

So a few years back I had a two really good ideas for two books. Worked them over in my head a few times, wrote a few chapters and had them reviewed by a crit group I was in. Today I opened both files – one of them had been updated last in 2005.

Today I deleted all my ‘non’ essential apps from Facebook. By non essential I mean the apps that don’t involve any thought whatsoever. The ones that you just click the button like Mafia Wars.

So much has changed in my life over the past year or so. I’ve been trying to learn to bloom where I have been planted. Frankly I’ve kind of sucked at it but I keep trying because, hey, isn’t that the point?
