Listening to the Crickets


Well, until I get something published and get my name out there, I’m probably just writing this for the crickets. We all have to start somewhere, so I thought I’d get this first post out of the way.

This is not my first blog or my first adventure in writing. But the first post always feels awkward. Sort of like a first date with a really hot guy and you worry that no matter what you say it’ll sound stupid. Yeah, that’s how this feels right now.

The next post will be better. I’ll find my stride, eventually. I just have to get this one out of the way to start.

In the coming days and weeks I will share with you my sexy writing adventure. This is something I’ve always thought about doing and then late last year I decided, what the heck, why not do it?

This is not some, I’m bored at home because of this whole virus thing, it’s something that has been in the works for a long time coming. Maybe a few of you have thought of embarking on a similar adventure and maybe these posts wil help or inspire you along the way.

For now, I won't worry if this sounds stupid or not, because I doubt anyone will read it for some time, if ever. So for now, it’s just me and the sounds of crickets chirping, but that’s okay because they always sound beautiful to me.

New Release - Guard My Body

Another new release! I'd hoped to have this one out by the end of June, but it just didn't work out that way. Hot weather set in, which always makes me a bit lethargic. Then there was a holiday. While I didn't have big plans for the Fourth of July this year, I took it a little easy and enjoyed the holiday. With that said, I present to you: Guard My Body - A Short Bodyguard Romance I had a lot of fun writing this one. I can only hope you have just as much fun reading it. Enjoy!   A dive bar, a broken elevator, and a man hotter than any fantasy. What could go wrong? Madison Being a writer is not at all what I thought it would be. Writing about crappy restaurants and dumpy hotels is not the life I imagined. Then again, I get stuck in a hotel elevator with a man hotter than sin. Who turns out to be interested in me. Except, it is just my luck to lose him as quickly as I found him. Will I ever see him again? Considering my bad luck, I doubt it. Jackson One unpleasant job ...

New Release - Faking it at Christmas

At last I have finished and released the 3rd story in the Holiday Wishes Series! I was so excited to finally do this story. Nothing like a short Christmas romance to get in the holiday spirit. So without further ado, I present Faking it at Christmas - A fake relationship, that of course always leads to more. Hope you enjoy reading it! MAKE A WISH UPON A SNOWFLAKE DURING THE HOLIDAYS AND IT MIGHT COME TRUE! Violet My boss has told me I have to attend the company Christmas party this year. My single male co-workers endlessly hit on me. I’ve no desire to date anymore, been there, done that, no thanks. I wish for a fake boyfriend for my party. After I make that wish, I run right into a hot guy, who also says he needs a fake girlfriend for the holidays. Like, what are the odds? These things don’t really happen. Now, if only I can keep my heart from doing its little flip-flops when I’m near this man, everything will be okay. Right? Liam I love my single life. No girlfriend in my fut...

Blogs - Why I Love Them and Why I Want to Do More

  I like blogs. I read several almost daily. Most of the ones I read are by authors, but I read other kinds of blogs as well. Some blogs have helped me. For example, when I decided knitting a pair of socks was a great idea, I found a blog to help me figure out the stitches for the heel of the sock. Or when I decided to dual boot my laptop with Linux, while retaining Windows. Although, I'm not sure why, I've never really logged into my Windows partition. Oh well. The point is the info on a blog was there to help me. As some of you know I'm not big on social media. I've never understood Facebook and honestly, I'm not sure I ever will. To some extent I do, but mostly I don't. I feel like everybody is shouting, "Hey, look at me, and here's my views on this and that, today I'm upset at this other thing, and oh by the way this is what I had for breakfast with photos." I can live my life without that madness. Once upon a time, I did try to be active o...
