4 out of 4 roses

We’ve heard the movie making business is cutthroat well Belinda’s about to find out just how cutthroat it can be. Again, I’ve had the opportunity to read Belinda’s third mystery straight after book two and book one. So, it really wouldn’t be fair to tell you who Belinda’s cohorts are; however, there is a marriage proposal on the table. Will she or won’t she? You’ll just have to read and find out. But never doubt that each book is it’s own stand-alone tale. I just happen to be a tad fanatical in… Continue

Summer verses Winter reading

Now that winter has officially started Down Under in Australia, and Summer up north in US, Canada and Europe. For those who are squeezing into bathing suits and heading off for a holiday in the sun, some good reading is a requisite. And I suggest you take Belinda Lawrence along. She's good company. For those in southern climes and who are cuddling up by the fire, wearing warm jim jams and sipping hot chocolate, Belinda is equally at home in cozy winter situations. Wherever you are, best check… Continue

They are two of the most important films to me and it is a pleasure to see them restored. Released in Australia by Umbrella Entertainment and will also be available from Amazon soon. Cheers, Brian

Come on Over

I'm over at a few other blogs today. If you get a chance, come on over to see the Christmas Decorations at http://acmeauthorslink.blogspot.com/

At http://bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/  the topic is Spoiled Milk. Ever sit down to read a good book and been disappointed?

If you haven't yet, check out the post below about the Paper War.

Thanks,
Morgan Mandel

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?

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