- About Me:
- I live in Texas, recently returned from Australia for several years. I've been writing for approximately 10 years and will be publishing this fall in an anthology published by L & L Dreamspell, titled A Death in Texas. My piece is titled Dark Pleasures. Another short is appearing in their erotica anthology, entitled, Siren's Call.
Recently, I entered the LASR annual contest for 2008. This was definitely a step to the side of my genre'...I'm a thriller gal...and so HEA endings and the focus being primarily on the two love interests is not my forte'. I was very pleased and flattered when I learned I had received an Honorary Mention in the contest, along with a couple of very complimentary reviews.
My sincere appreciation is extended to them for allowing my piece "through the Romance gates" :)...
The Pan Man will be available to view on the LASR site http://www.longandshortreviews.com/contest.htm as of August 7, 2008.

Paper War
I've been waging a war on paper the last few days. So far, paper is winning. The more I clean up, the more of it I find. The problem is, for much of it, I feel an obligation to do a thorough examination and decide whether or not it's worth keeping.The mailperson is my enemy. He, sometimes she, keeps leaving more paper in my mail box. I'm not talking about my Christmas cards, which I cherish, but all the other stuff dropped off for me to sort out. At times it's torture to come home and see the new pile the DH has set on the kitchen table.
I've discovered tons of magazines over a year old. They were trying to hide in a magazine holder on the side of the couch, but not doing a good job of it, since they were spilling over. Of course, I decided to check the headings on the covers to see if some of the information inside might prove valuable. Wouldn't you know it, I was right. Many articles seemed to good to give up.
I've already mentioned here before about how I also have a compulsion to print out emails that seem important to me. The result is I have lots of important pieces of paper. When there's an abundance, which is the most important? And, where's the one I really need? It is a quandary.
What about you? Is paper your enemy? Are you also waging a war against it? Who is winning?

So finally we reach this years " Christmas Story" I hope you all enjoy it.
The night was hot and steamy, too hot, too sticky and too not like Christmas for the soldier that lay trying to get some rest before going on duty, in the non air-condition…
It is the Christmas Season. We are hurrying from place to place, fighting huge crowds nearly everywhere we go, and we are all enjoying the carols sung and played on the radio while stuck in traffic. We are all determining the best Christmas gift to…

Thanks for telling me about BOOK PLACE--I love it here!
That's cool about your son's name (Deon) being so close to my husband's name (Dion), but I would bet you money that your son's name isn't pronounced "D-in" like my husband's is, right? He gets called all different kinds of weird things and he hates it when people mispronounce his name! I told him he should be thankful that his name isn't mispronounced as badly as mine is! Ever since I was a little girl, people have thought my name was "Clyde!" And no! I do not look at all like a Clyde!
I'll talk to you soon,
Cynde
I greatly appreciate it, and hope you have a wonderful day.
Kind regards
Brian
