    Author Interview- RJ Conte

    I have known RJ Conte for almost 20 years. That is kinda weird to think about, so I’m not going to dwell on that because that makes me think we’re getting kinda old. Today I get to share her upcoming latest book with you! “Arabella Rose is the county’s best suicide hotline telephone operator. But very few know the personal reasons behind her passion, until a call from a strangely compelling man shakes up her entire world.” The Hotline Girl – Available May 2nd on Amazon Before I get to the interview, you are officially invited to the Facebook party for the Book release: The Hotline Girl- Book Release Party! What is…

    30 before 30 – #10 Fight Club

    Source: Pinterest Well. I think the midget’s summation of this movie was spot on. It is a piece of exceptionally well-done, and clever, storytelling, but I don’t ever need to see it again.

    Author Interview- Griffin Asher

    “My birth was ordinary; full of a woman’s pain and blood. I didn’t mean to kill her, but I was frightened and I was dying.” – Farseer When Griffin Asher sent me this book I let it linger in my inbox waiting for time to sit and give it my full attention. And then I mentally kicked myself for waiting so long to read it because it was very enjoyable. I am thrilled to share not only about her newest book, but an interview with the author herself. 1) When did you decide to start writing? That’s actually a two fold question. I’ve been telling stories for as long as I can…

    Book Release: Dragon and Priest

      Amazon Kindle $2.99 My first book since 2007 is now available. Before I get all nostalgic, look at the pretty cover that Annie J Designs made for me! Both Worlds Collide: A Fairy Tale and Lost and Found: A Fairy Tale will be re-released this year with new designed covers by Annie. There is also one more book in my Fairy Tale series that will definitely be released this year, hopefully two books. The plan is for two. But definitely one, because that one is already done and written. But back to Dragon and Priest. Ahh. If you were around me around February 2014, I probably apologized to you for being a…

    30 Before 30 – #9 Casablanca

    Yes. I know. But that’s part of the point of the list. And I have now seen ‘the greatest movie of all time’. And I can see why it holds that title and it definitely stands the test of time. I didn’t love it, but that’s a personal preference. I don’t care for love triangles where the ‘who will she pick?’ is between the heroine’s husband and her lover.  Personal preference aside, the film is a work of art.

    30 Before 30 – #8 Jesus Feminist

      Reading Jesus Feminist was one of the first things that made it onto my 30 before 30 list. (To balance things out I also have on the list to read Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God by Jonathan Edwards, which I have had on my shelf since college and never gotten around to reading it.) Ordering this book felt rebellious. When I had first heard of it I had thought ‘can you do say? Say that? Is that ok?’ Having read the book I do wonder if the author purposefully picked that title to weed out people who would dismiss the book regardless of the content. And if the title didn’t scare…

    30 Before 30 – #7 Make Peace with The Hair

    If you have known me for any somewhat significant period of time you have probably heard me refer to my hair as The Hair or The Mass. The post is as much for my own benefit to come back and read and will probably be lengthy – fair warning. I have a complicated relationship with my hair. My emotional reaction about it swings from I try to ignore it’s existence to I hate it and I want to pull it out by the roots and burn it. It is very thick, and very heavy and if I let it grow too long and wear it up- migraine. If I let…
