Update

My readers are complaining to me about my blog not being updated lately. I am so swamped with preparing for my conference, the blog (and my Twittering) have been put on hold. Well, today I decided to give a short update for your entertainment. So here goes... Family update : My wonderful sister-in-law remarried this past weekend, and I want to say congrats to Teresa and Randy. Welcome to the family Randy. I know you and Teresa will have many happy years together. Note : My Twitter friend, Loren DiGiorgi , is an amazing musician. I encourage everyone to visit his website and enjoy his music. He is truly talented and I know you will enjoy his music as much as I do. Here is a link to his site… http://www.lorendigiorgi.com/ . I have found that when I get totally stressed, his soothing music really helps to calm my nerves. Enjoy! Book update : I am currently working on my 3rd revision of my first manuscript. I decided to change the POV from 1st person to 3rd. It seems to have added a certa...

Interesting Things on the Internet

I am forever looking for interesting things on the internet, and Google is one of my favorite ways to find them. Today for your entertainment, I am sharing some of my treasures with you. I hope you explore these sites and enjoy them as much as I did. http://i.gizmodo.com/5197240/illuminant-lamp-is-like-a-creepy-hovering-jellyfish Really cool lamp that creates light art for your room. http://www.beckhamsite.com/audiobook/ Free audio download for some popular books, including Twilight. http://abduzeedo.com/45-amazing-type-faces-typographic-portraits Too cool for words (no pun intended). http://budge.aminus3.com/image/2009-01-17.html Beautiful and interesting photos. http://www.drawingsofleonardo.org/ No words can express my love for Leonardo.

Fun Filled Wednesday

I have a confession to make...I am addicted to Twitter. Yep, there it is...all out in the open now and I can't take it back. I have made some new friends via Twitter, who I will call my tweeps. Two of the tweeps I made today are Loren DiGiorgi and Pat Sajak. Pat is a funny fellow, with a quick wit. His comments will catch you off guard and cause damage to your monitor if you are in the process of taking a drink of soda (or other liquid). He actually plays Wheel of Fortune during the day with his followers, which is fun. I sadly admit that this afternoons game stumped me, which is rare. (Bananas Foster - who knew?) I grew up watching Wheel of Fortune with my dad, and we are very competitive. Maybe that is what started my love of words...hmmm something to think about. My other new friend today, Loren, is a composer. He plays beautiful piano music. I have always loved piano music, and wished that I had the talent to play. I had lessons as a kid, but only a few songs remain in my memor...

Treasures on the Internet

Many people who know me, say that I am an internet search wizard. I LOVE Google, and researching is one of my favorite things to do. I can find almost any bit of information on the internet, which amazes and can sometimes scare people. I love to look up history, news, science, people, etc. I can’t imagine where I might have ended up in life, if the internet that we know now, would have been available back when I was growing up. This weeks interesting find is about free ebooks from Planet eBook. Most books available are from well known authors. Planet eBooks statement on their main page is…"All our literature is entirely free for you to download"; and of course I did. I downloaded Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. Please feel free to check out this website and download your own book to read: http://www.planetebook.com/free-ebooks.asp "The person who does not read good books has no advantage over the person who cannot read them." - Mark Twain Another website I stum...
