About Me:
A scifi/fantasy storyteller born and raised in Poplar Bluff, MO, I have moved around a lot. I lived here until I was ten, and then moved to Frederick, MD, where I immersed myself in mythology from around the world. Most recently, I lived in Oakland, CA, which is where I wrote Liquid Sky. The circle is now complete, and I am now back in the town of my birth. I am an artist, a writer, and a dabbler in electronic music. I love Science Fiction / Fantasy / Horror and all things gothic. If you are interested, check out my music, or my website for more on my writing.

For Kate Clinton on "In the Life"

I just watched the "Voices of Pride - June 2007" episode of "<a href="http://www.inthelifetv.org/">In the Life</a>," and I must say Kate Clinton's monologue really spoke to me...

I have been arguing with my family again about being openly gay. "People that do not like this will not buy your book! All you are doing is pushing it in people's face. Why can't you just be quiet about it?"

I cannot lie, and I will not be silenced about my life. When Brian and I do somethi… Continue

When I read your bio I felt the Joseph Campbell vibe. So few have shown signs. His take on burial rites really hit home for me too. Of course the heroes journey.

Look forward to reading your work.

P.S. The mythology I've delved into is more on the folklore end of city life, jazz history and mixing it into what I call prose sketches....pictures with words. I've posted a few samples on my page. Take a peek and let me know what you think:)

Thanks,

Yvon

Dig your background orientation with mythology and had to send a friend request. Need more folks who identify with mythology.

My Impressions - Barbara Walters Show & Academy Awards - Morgan Mandel

I've got a sore throat, which means a cold or the dreaded flu, but I got bored with sleeping.

To break the monotony, I watched Barbara Walters interview:

Miley Cyrus - or Destiny Hope Cyrus, which was the first name her parents gave her. She's 15 years old and already owns an entire wing in her parents' home. What a life!
Very engaging young girl who seems to have her head on straight despite all of her notoriety.

I also watched Barbara Walters interview Ellen Page, a very pretty 21 year old, very sensible, but she just had to close the interview singing a song which I can't get out of my head - nice little ditty.

Vanessa Williams - who spoke about the controversy over her nude photos and admitted they weren't worth it in the long run. Very lovely woman who admitted she, like many other movie stars, uses Botox.

Harrison Ford - who says his new Indiana Jones movie, set for release in May, will not hide the passage of time. Harrison himself is now 65, but doesn't look it.

I love the glamor of the Academy Awards. I particularly enjoy watching what the stars wear and how their hair is done. Sometimes they look completely different in person than on the sample movie clips shown.

Many of the women are wearing strapless gowns - which always make me a bit nervous - how do they keep them up without spilling out of them?

Anyway, I haven't seen any of the movies, but will eventually do so on DVD.

I just watched Tilda Swinton win supporting actress. She looked totally surprised. It was refreshing to see that much spontaneity.

Anyway, I'm signing off now so I can enjoy the rest of the Awards - Also to Dream that some day my romantic comedy, GIRL OF MY DREAMS by Morgan Mandel can be made into a movie - Well, I did say it was a dream, didn't I?

Girl of My Dreams by Morgan Mandel Now Available For Order

Hi everyone,
After all the stress of the Holiday Season, you'll need a break. Consider ordering Girl of My Dreams, my new romantic comedy about an assistant turned reality show contestant, to be shipped after 1/1/08. (Guys, if you order early, you'll be set for a Valentine's Day gift!)

WHAT'S GIRL OF MY DREAMS ABOUT?
When food poisoning strikes the set of a new reality show, Jillian, the straitlaced assistant, steps in and becomes a contestant. The transformed Jillian is swept up into travel and adventure, as each round brings her closer to winning the millionaire. Too bad he's not the one she loves.

Order information for print books is at:
http://www.hardshell.com/Search.aspx?Keyword=Morgan+Mandel
If you prefer ebooks, at present Girl of My Dreams is also available at All Romance Ebooks. You can't miss it at:

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.
