Waking up each day being glad to see the sight of the sun coming up, smelling coffee brewing, hearing my wife say breakfast is ready, tasting how good her biscuits are. Touching those hot buttery biscuits, I have a sense of happiness when my stomach is full. I like the movie hers mine and ours. I like reading books by Mark Twain, and love listening to Rock and Roll music gets my blood pumping.

Where Moonshine Flows And Love Grows
Making moonshine from the thirties through the fifties was a way of life to a whole lot of people and the Government was dead set on stopping the tradition that had been going on for centuries. It started back in 1860 during the whiskey rebellion and still goes on today, “the fight against illegal booze” the ambrosia that soothes the mind when someone making it becomes fearful of their occupation. Then there were those one night romances that ended up having a dad with a shot gun paying the preacher after he had preformed his duty of making a fellow make an honest woman out of their daughters after one of these romances occurred or at least that’s what they would have liked to have happen.

Spiritual Messages an insight to the word of God
Photobucket
God's word will give you the truth, and if you abide in that truth, He will set you free from the bondage of sin (John 8:31-36). Even though Jesus' death is the sacrifice for our sins, we cannot continue to willfully sin. Let me give you an Old Testament example, Exodus 32:33 - And the Lord said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of my book. God was talking about his chosen people who have willfully turned their back on him going back to the ways of the world making idols. John 3:6 that which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. may purchase book at

Country Boy Stories
Photobucket
As my thoughts go back in time to a period when I figured all came from the country and pretty much did as I had done, sit and listen to stories being told by those who were a lot like me a story teller. I learned that everyone has a story to be told and the stories were different as night and day. I must say I like it like that this is how my idea of Country Boy Stories came about. I like telling all sorts of stories and this book brings a few of them that I tell.

MORGAN'S OWN BLOGSPOT

Slides, Anyone?

I added a few slides of my books to my blogspot. I'm not sure yet if they should stay on or not.

Do you have more trouble loading my blogspot with the slides up? Do you like them or are they too distracting?

A Christmas Tree Already

On the way home from work yesterday, I passed a house that already had a lighted and decorated Christmas tree up and showing by the window.

Is it not too soon for that? In my mind, the day after Thanksgiving is when the Christmas Season starts. That's when it's fair game to put up a tree and decorations and start shopping. The way things are going this year, I'll be lucky if I get organized enough to decorate a few days before Christmas.

With our dog, Rascal, who lives up to her name, we'll probably go with a fiber optic small tree on top of an end table. One of these days I may pull put the larger tree from the box in the basement and set it up, but not until our doggy is a little more sedate. I don't feel like chasing her to get ornaments out of her mouth. I will be putting up knick knacks, lights inside and decorations on the walls, so it will still look Christmasy. No lights outside because for some reason we have no outlets outside.

While we're on the subject of Christmas trees and such, be sure to add holidays in your books. You can mention decorations and lights  or Easter eggs and baskets, or even mattress sales in your descriptions to ground the reader as to the season.
Now, back to that tree I saw. What about you? When do you decorate for Christmas? What do you put up?

Winners and Losers at the CMAs and Life

I love country music and almost every country performer. While watching the CMAs, I enjoyed seeing the winners accept their awards. On the other hand, it was hard for me to see the losers do their best to appear gracious and for the most part succeeding.

For every winner, there's a loser. In life and in books, it's the same way. How people react to their good and bad fortune shows what their characters are made of.  You don't have to tell a reader who the good guy or  bad guy is. Let their actions speak for themselves. The readers are smart enough to figure it out.

PS Can't finish this blog without saying - You Rock, Taylor Swift! You are one smart, talented teenager! Congrats on all your awards, especially, Entertainer of the Year!!!

CMA Awards Tonight and Twitter

One of my favorite shows is on tonight - the CMA Awards. If you're a country music fan, you're probably like me and will be glued to the TV 8pm EST, or in my case 7pm, in the flatlands of Illinois.

Almost all my favorite performers will be there, except I hear that Rascal Flatts can't make it.

I'll be on Twitter during the show also. That's part of the fun of it - discussing and dissecting outfits, performers, songs and even commercials, kind of like I'm at a giant party with people who all go for the same thing and want to share.

What about you? What kind of music do you like? Do you tweet during a favorite show or event?

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.

When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
