I am a firm believer that children can learn to Go Green just as well as adults. I have designed a series of books that teach children about the world in which they live as well as incorporate a moral lesson. "Tiny Learns to Listen" just came out ...

Romantic tip off of current newsletter---(use at your own risk)
Sometimes being romantic is doing something so simple as washing a car. Wash and detail the person’s car that you love (if you don’t like that type of work and it’s in your budget…you can have it done at a car wash) and then put small items of interest in the car hidden (in the glove box, under the seat, in the visor, CD case). These items can be a new favorite CD, love notes, a pair of new sunglasses, favorite gum or candy and even fill up the gas tank for an added bonus (if you are doing this for your girlfriend/wife…noticing her favorite lipstick and buying it and leaving it in her purse or in the car is sweet as long as it’s not to hot and melt).

Profile Information

Are you an Author, Reader, Publisher, Editor, Agent or Other?
I am an author. I write children's science books, inspirational romance, traditional romance and non-fiction. My newest release is "Tiny Learns to Listen" Children's book (Summer 2009) and Canvas of Love (inspirational romance) Fall 2009.

My books are "Tiny Learns to Listen" a children's book that helps children learn more about the desert through fun characters such as a Kangaroo Rat, Rattlesnakes, Roadrunners and more. It also teaches a wonderful lesson about listening to your parents. This book is part of an environmental series for children. The other book in the series is "Little Frog" (about the rainforest and learning that you are special no matter what shape, size or ability). Available through www.Roseheartbooks.com, Amazon.com, Borders.com, www.StaceySchlegl.com

"Wishing" (soft back inspirational romance by Roseheart Publishing)
www.roseheartbooks.com to buy or select Borders (also Target.com and Borders.com)
---synopsis---Elizabeth lost her husband suddenly of a heart attack playing basketball. She was left pregnant and caring for her two little girls. Her life once filled with ‘table for four’ is now ‘table for three.’ Those words are difficult to swallow. Everywhere she looks she sees remnants of her old life—Tony’s dirty coffee cup on the counter, his briefcase still sitting in the doorway and his dirty laundry exactly where he left it before he died. Elizabeth can’t bring herself to let go of her husband. Her daughters on the other hand are yearning for a father figure.

One shiny penny tossed into a fountain wishing for a daddy sends the wheels of fate in motion. Destiny answers by having Dr. David Michael coming to the rescue as her Lamaze coach. A relationship starts to build. However, Elizabeth isn’t so sure she is ready to let go of the past and embrace her new future.

"Preconceived Notions (soft back romance by Publish America)--
www.SLSromance.com, Borders.com and Target.com to buy
-synopsis---Tiffany, a single mother in a small town, is trying to make ends meet. Everyone has an opinion of her; however, there is more to her than what they see…or think they see.
The town’s gossip is that she got pregnant from some city boy she met at a nightclub and is scavenging off her poor widowed mother. Women talk about her. Men gawk at her. She isn’t perfect, but some of their “preconceived notions” are wrong.

A bike accident sends the wheels of fate spinning and brings her face to face with a six-foot-five man with eyes the color of the town’s lake. Marcus helps Tiffany and her daughter home and cooks them a meal fitting for a fancy restaurant in the city. They keep meeting and the fire burning between them is only appropriate since she is the famous “Firegirl.”

"The Defense" (e-book erotica by Aspen Mountain Press)--
www.aspenmountainpress.com or slsromance.com to buy
synopsis--We all deal with trying to be the 'perfect' size...if there is such a size. Samantha struggles to be what she used to be---thinner. She believes a man can only love her if she is thin, but Bruce (a handsome Korean student in the graduate program) tries to teach her that size doesn't always matter to everyone. Samantha keeps pushing him away and he keeps trying to break through the defense she's built...and it's
formidable.

"Greener Pastures" - by Roseheart Publishing (inspirational romance)www.roseheartbooks.com to buy or select Borders (Borders.com or Target.com)

Synopsis:Tracy lives in what people call a mansion, but the cold marble symbolizes her life—frigid and lonely. Her husband is always away on business trips and ‘working late.’ She is left with her two girls—a preschooler and a teenager.

On her daughter’s thirteenth birthday, they make plans to stay at the Lazy ‘R’ ranch. Riding horses and cooking campfire éclairs is on the menu. Her husband never shows up like he promised and this leaves her and her children in the care of a six-foot four rancher who has eyes the color of the clouds before a tornado. His calloused hard working hands are gentle and caring. His baggy overalls have charm. The old farm gravel road their black Mercedes turned down is symbolic of where her life begins to take her. The ups and downs are difficult, but if you ride them out---you might come out dirty but find the most beautiful place in the world. Tracy discovers that her husband isn’t always where he says he is and that love sometimes is found in Greener Pastures.

"Little Frog" children's soft back available now to buy at Cypress Imprint (Roseheart Books) at www.Roseheartbooks.com and coming soon to select Borders and book stores. 56 pages of science and fun for children of all ages. Little Frog and his rainforest buddies unite to save their home. Illustrations are amazing! Only 8.99!

"Tahitian Sunset Rose" - Now available!! by Roseheart Publishing (inspirational romance)
Synopsis: Becky and Kenny drifted apart as many couples do through marriage and kids. Eventually they found themselves divorced with a label of ‘irreconcilable differences’ defining them. Life now consists of ‘my time’ and ‘your time’ with their two boys and balancing their separate lives and houses. However, in one life changing moment for Becky, it isn’t Kenny’s irritating habits and obsession with sports or even her successful pharmaceutical companies she is remembering. Instead, it is that Ferris wheel ride at the fair and a dare she once took…

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?

RSS

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.
