Going To Extremes

The new year is here and thoughts are turning to self-improvement. But how far are you willing to go in the name of beauty? Injections, unapproved drugs, laser treatments, surgery?

You may want to try one of the latest beauty crazes like anal bleaching. Yes, it’s true. Women are having treatments and using creams to lighten the color of the skin around their anus. Hey, if you’re willing to go that far, might as well go for the gusto and have vaginal rejuvenation so you can feel like a virgin. Trim those too big labia, unhood your clitoris, tighten the vaginal walls or give him the gift of popping your cherry by having your hymen restored. No need to do those pesky Kegel exercises. Just go under the laser or take a handy dandy pill.

Virtual Love?

Dating is hard at best and a nightmare at worst! Why not use this handy-dandy Internet world. Most of us spend a lot of time online, practically live our lives on the net, so what about finding love online? Internet dating? Stranger things can happen.

Most everyone has Internet access and an email address, if not at home then at least through an employer. Many spend a great deal of time online for work, entertainment and even to connect with friends and family. Then there’s the group of us for whom the web is our world. Heck, my laptop is like an extra appendage permanently attached to my body.

Jesse's Challenge In Print!

Jesse’s Challenge is book 3 in the Corralled series. Creating the Shooting Star Ranch, along with its rough and ready cowboys has been great fun. Brock and Tink have been rather shy to tell me their story, but I want to ensure fans of the series that book 4 is in the works.

I’d like to thank all the readers who have emailed ideas for wild and wacky ranch games. Please, keep them coming. You never know, you’re idea could wind up in one of the books! In fact, if you send me an idea that I use, I will send you a signed print book of your choice from the series.

The Insiders’ View

Read enough blog ramblings written by authors and you’re bound to hear about the voices in our heads—our characters. Yes, they really do talk to us. They don’t always talk as often as we’d like or at the most appropriate of times, but when they speak we listen. The alternative is frightening—writer’s block.

Writing fiction sounds like the easy life, right? Wrong!

It's Almost Summertime...Yay!

The temperatures are rising and soon it will be summertime, when the livin’ is easy. Makes me want to kick back in a hammock with a good book and a cold drink. Have you made your plans? What are you doing this summer? Taking a family vacation or maybe going somewhere with a group of friends? Perhaps thinking of something a bit more…exciting?
