Post Blog Jog Day.

It was a great day. Not only did I discover some great new blogs, I had almost a hundred folks jog by and gained five new followers.

It's a chilly morning, well chilly for the central coast of CA, only 41 degress, yes I can hear some of you groaning.

My husband's home now for a week. I guess that will give me some idea of what it will be like in a couple of years when he retires.

That's going to take some adjustment on my part.

How have the rest of you dealt with it?

Randolph and I had sent Ice to LL Publications. We didn't receive an offer of a contract yet. But Zetta Brown sent us a wonderful email listing the strong and weak parts of Ice, along with an invitation to submit again. So that's what we are working on.

I'm not happy with what is goign on with Dancing With The Stars. I know it is a popularity contest also, but at least in the past years the winner was the best dancer...this year it's looking like a farce.

I haven't decided if I will bother to watch tonight, or not.

Blog Jog Day!

It's here. I hope you are having a great time visiting the other blogs. Next on your jog should be...

Me vs. My Muse http://mevsmymuse.com/

Isn't that the way all writers feel at times...it is us versing our stubborn muse on some days.

A thought about your older titles.

In October I attended ARCHON in St. Louis. I was on some panels, did an autograph session and so forth.

I'd taken A Spiral of Echoes with me, as well as my older titles from my Daradawn series.

A book store owner in the dealer's room let me put them among the others he was selling.

And that's the books I sold and autographed. The Blue Flame and The Emerald Dagger, books one and two from my series., as well as Shadow Worlds, the science fiction suspense that I co-wrote with Darrell Bain.

I didn't take The Silver Angel with me, but was contacted after I returned home by someone who wanted a copy.

So don't write off those earlier releases of yours, mine are still selling. In fact I've just signed three contracts with Desert Breeze Publishing to release the titles of my series books again.

They became orphains when Tigress Press closed its doors.

Blog Jog Day is tomorrow.

Come out and jog with us. You just might find a blog you want to follow. And discover some ways to make your's stand out.

Patterns of Happiness

'In the depth of my soul

there is a wordless song'

Patterns of Happiness

I'm on vacation in Oregon. Enjoying this private cabin, overlooking the river.

Away from my Wisdom cards, but found this cool little book here. It is from Hallmark cards, titled Patterns of Happiness by Kahlil Gibran.

Here's A quote:

'My thought is a tender leaf

that sways in every direction

and finds pleasure in its swaying.'

Wisdom Cards

Happy 4th of July!

'My spiritual growth comes to me in ways I don't quite expect.

I know I am always safe.'

Wisdom Cards

'I have the power to make changes.'

Wisdom Cards

'I am worth loving.'

Wisdom Cards

'When I am ready to make positive changes in my life,

I attract whatever I need to help me.'

Wisdom Cards

'It is so comfortable to play victim, because it is always someone elses's fault.

I have to stand on my own two feet and take responsibility.'

Wisdom Cards

'I look in the mirror and say: "I love and accept myself exactly as I am."'

Wisdom Cards

'It is my birthright to express myself in ways that are fulfilling to me.'

Wisdom Cards

'I accept all the parts of myself.'

Wisdom Cards

'We create habits and problems to fulfill a need. When I can find a positive way to fulfil the need, I can release the problem.'

Wisdom Cards

Another good one!

'The thoughts I choose to think and believe right now are creating my future.

These thoughts form my experiences tomorrow, next week and next year.'

Wisdom Cards

'It is only a thought, and a thought can be changed.'

Wisdom Cards

I particularly like this one:

'I now listen to what I say.

I don't say anything that I don't want to come true for me.'

Wisdom Cards

'I do not try to heal my friends.

I do my own mental work and heal myself.

This is the best thing I can do for others.'

Wisdom Cards

'I rise above all limitations.'
