For the Love of... Modern Family!

I'm a recent viewer to Modern Family.  Oh, I had caught bits and pieces here and there since it's inception but I never really tuned regularly to see the shenanigans.  Oh my, has all of that changed recently!!  I was LOLing all over the place last week.  You couldn't help but crack up over the neighbor's annoyance with a parrot that turned out to be Manny's beloved Momma, Gloria, screaming, "JAY!!" at the top of her lungs.  Then, there was the hysterical one-liner by Mitchell as he fretted about them not getting Lily into into preschool.  "Leave it to the gays to raise the only (not smart) asian!"  Ha!  Too funny.

For the Love of... Taking the Perfect Photograph

I spend some time this evening updating the look of my page... I added some new feeds from a writer friend who isn't afraid to go "there."  While I was at it, I decided to add some of the photographs I've taken semi-recently.  They were taken within the last year, for sure.  I love to photograph flowers in particular.  (None of that "be still and smile" business that can zap the joy out of taking pictures in 2.5 seconds flat.)  So I added some here... for your viewing pleasure.  Enjoy!

For the love of... The Nate Berkus Show

Here before long, I shall be writing articles for Examiner on The Nate Berkus Show.  I've been watching, more or less, since he started; and, I have to say that I am enjoying his shows!  He's such a cutie but incredibly warm and friendly, too.  Seems to be really thankful for his current lot in life.  Never mind all of the decorating tips I've been getting since I started watching.  I love design shows!!  This should be fun.  Now, if only the website link would hurry up and get up and running!

For the Love of... Blogging for my Boobies

I just came across an article talking about how, in observance of Breast Cancer Awareness month there's this thing called Blogging for Your Boobies.  So, here is my contribution.  You'll have to forgive the poem format but I think, when you're done reading, you'll agree that it's sad and funny all rolled into one!  Although, because it IS Breast Cancer Awareness month and I am extremely grateful that my boobies are cancer free and I am continuing to remind myself that it's not what on the outside that counts but what's NOT on the inside that counts.  Anyway, here's my little poem devoted to my boobs.

I looked in the mirror today and what did I see?
My mom's boobs staring back at me!!

For the love of... Playing with my Blog's spaces

Have just spent that last half hour or so playing with the fun things I can do to make my blog space more personalized and reader friendly.  While doing so, I discovered there is a way to see the stats of my blog.  It seems I've even had someone stop by who was in Russia!!  It's a cool thing that the internet lets us do these days and that is to reach out to people far and wide who you might not otherwise have ever come in contact with.  

I've gotten lazy with my writing lately.  This writing for a living business takes a lot more work than you might imagine.  When you do it from home, especially, there are so many things to distract you along the way.  I am thinking tomorrow I just might be packing up my laptop and going to the library and working there for the day.  Maybe by doing that I'll be able to knock out several thousand words or so.  Five thousand would be fantastically fabulous!

I am currently working on writing a fun, highly erotic novella that chronicles the sexual awakenings of Emily.  Emily what?  You might want to know but I'm not sure I know myself yet.  Nor, have I figured her out.  Is she an overly ambitious romance novel writer who promises her agent and publisher a highly charged erotic tale that she can't seem to deliver?  Or is she a super-smart Geeky girl who's been too busy working on her academic education rather than her adult education?  Stay tuned to find out.

Speaking of Adult Education... am I the only one who remembers that song by Hall & Oates?!

For the love of... An Erotic Pen Name

After finding out about NRP (Noble Romance Publishing) and their call for submissions regarding erotic and romance... a friend and I have decided to team up together and write two (one for each of us) sexy, titillating tales of single girls discovering themselves... and their desires... in a novella format.

The plan is to submit it to the publishers by the end of September and we've done it with the thoughts that the publishers will agree to feature our two stories together in a book. 

Just the two of us... we can make it if we try... just the two of us... you and I.  LOL
