One of the most exciting things that has happened since I joined the Heart of Carolina Romance Writers group is becoming part of a smaller critique group of only three people. Me, Karen Anders, and Jennifer Harrington. I don’t know how I got so lucky!! Jennifer, like me, is unpublished, but hopefully not for long. Karen, on the other hand, is not only a multi-published author for Harlequin, she has a book that was only just released from Harlequin’s Blaze line. Walking into a book store and picking up a book written by a friend has to be one of…

According to cnn, a new poll indicates that three out of four Americans are scared about the way things are going in the country. Oh really? I certainly hope they didn’t spend millions of dollars trying to figure that one out. I could have told them that for free. Of course we’re scared! Most of the older generation and the baby boomers believed they had their careers on lock-down and their retirements all bundled up… then poof! In an instant all of that was gone for so many people. And it’s particularly scary I would imagine for the over 50…

After watching the 81st Academy Awards last night, there are now so many movies I want to see! Usually by Oscar time, I’ve seen a great many of the movies up for awards, but not this year for some reason. Maybe it’s a money thing, or maybe it’s just about being so busy… All I know is that now I have a list of at least twelve movies I want to rent as soon as they come to DVD.

I got up this morning to let my dog out and it’s raining. For some reason, I am happy to see the rain pouring down today. According to my little weather channel desktop, it’s 90% chance it’ll rain for the rest of the day. Sure, it’ll be a messy day, but there can be something so cleansing about a day of rain also. Of course, come 3:30 when I’m trying to get to a voice lesson, I’ll probably wish it wasn’t raining, but for now, it’s comforting somehow. I think I’ll probably open a window and work somewhere I can…

If you love watching Reality TV, then you know that right now, there are so many great shows starting up. Almost every single one of my favorite reality shows is either just starting or will start soon. Survivor started last Thursday and the cast seems to be mostly young and energetic. The Amazing Race just started last night, and even though I haven’t actually watched it yet, I did record it and will probably watch it today sometime. American Idol began over a month ago, I think, but this week marks the first real week of America’s votes. Up to…

Today I started posting on my Survivor Recap blog again if anyone is interested in the show. I hope to keep up with at least a short recap of each episode. Go to this link to check out more information on Survivor: Tocantins.
