Hey guys! It\u2019s the last week of summer here, kids are so excited<\/em> to get back to school. I\u2019m planning one last hurrah, taking them camping. That means all the s\u2019mores I can eat, then sleep on the ground and dream of all the bugs that can get inside the tent. Fun!<\/p>\n

Favorite Song of the Week ~<\/strong> <\/span>Ne-Yo is pretty much brilliant. He writes all his own music and lyrics, along with writing hits for several other artists. The video? Not sure how I feel about it, other than to think that that woman is gorgeous! See for yourself. Don\u2019t miss the end:<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

Work in Progress News ~ <\/strong><\/span>Plugging away on Dean. I discovered the antagonist\u2019s motivation. What a weirdo! I was going to leave word counts here, but I might be totally embarrassed at my lack of productivity. Then again, it might spur me into actually buckling down and getting something done. I\u2019ll think about it.<\/p>\n

Backlist News ~<\/span><\/strong> Company Ink was reviewed at Pearl\u2019s World of Romance. I appreciate Pearl for taking self published works for review. Some don\u2019t, especially short stories. \u00c2\u00a0Here\u2019s what she thinks:\u00c2\u00a0\"\"<\/a>Pretty cool little pic there, huh? Click it to head over to Pearl\u2019s World. She does a great job reviewing. Thanks, Pearl!<\/p>\n

Industry News ~<\/strong> <\/span>It looks like Barnes and Noble is going to the UK, and Amazon is headed to India! The more the merrier, I say. Amazon also offered to pay me in Indian Rupees. I\u2019ll have to keep that in mind.<\/p>\n

Search Term of the week aka How People Found My Websites ~<\/strong><\/span> This one cracked me up: \u201cshe riped and she roared\u201d. Oooh kaaay.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>What I\u2019m reading ~<\/strong> <\/span>All right, I never thought reviews would sell me a book, but that\u2019s exactly what happened here. From folks at Goodreads<\/a> to those on Amazon (click the cover). It\u2019s an older book, I\u2019m just late to the party. I just hope that all the 50 Shades fans find well written books like this after the craze wears down.<\/p>\n

Hero Quote ~<\/span> <\/strong>from Nick Webster, from For a Price:<\/p>\n

\u201cJust know that I\u2019m happy simply holding you like this. Don\u2019t feel like you have to do anything else. I don\u2019t want you to worry tonight, or whenever you\u2019re with me. I\u2019ll never force you to give more than you\u2019re willing to share, and I\u2019ll never be disappointed. Understand?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What a guy, huh? Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week!<\/p>\n\n
