Buckle Up!!!

"Buckle Up Everyone!!!".....(I had to blog about this one thing)

A teenage boy (19) died in front of my home this past Saturday. He was not wearing his seat belt when his pick up truck flipped over. --- Please buckle up!!!!

Also, parents that are buying "big" speakers to put into their teenagers trucks/cars, please make sure it is secured and strapped into place. This is so dangerous, you have no idea.

Please tell all your loved ones "Buckle Up"...........

Saints --- What the heck?

This blog is just me ranting about the Saints loss. (grrrrr...) You can ignore this one, but I had to get it out....

We all want to know what the heck is going on?
I took off work to go to Houston and support our Saints team and what did I get? I was embarrassed. It was terrible. I don't mind losing, but not like that. It seemed like we were trying to lose the game. I won't name players, but guys something is not right with you. 95% of the team just played like their heart wasn't in it. Is it?? You can't blame your fans, because when I arrived at the Hotel and saw tons and tons of fans there I was so proud to be a Saints fan. We drove in by the hundreds, we flew in by who knows how many. But then we have to sit there watching the team play like they could care less. It breaks my heart. We want to see you try harder. That's all. It doesn't have to be a win. Catch the ball and hold on to it. Run your ass off and do your best. Don't keep running Bush up the middle, it doesn't work "HELLO", it doesn't work!!! Now, go practice like you've never done before, and kick some ass. And defense sack the quarterback like your life depended on it. Do some blitzing!!

And coach, what are you doing?? Don't keep doing the same crap if it doesn't work...

Do people really read blogs?

Yes, people really do read them. So don't trash talk anyone, at any time, no matter your mood...

Okay, now why I'm blogging today. For those that are just learning to seriously write, there is a book I'm going to suggest to you.... It is called "Goal, Motivation & Conflict" The Building Blocks of Good Fiction ~ by: Debra Dixon.......

Yep, it is something I wish I had when I first started writing. A must have....... Plenty of authors suggested many books to me, but this one is simple yet said tons....
Just thought I'd share.....good luck writing......don't give up.....

p.s. Babara V. I added you......

Been a long time --- I'm back....

Man, has it been forever since I blogged.
Been busy of course as always. I'll just give you one small hint.
"Teenagers"..... yep, those who have them I don't need to explain.

Other than that, I've been touring New Orleans, getting books of voodoo and searching for items and such for my voodoo book. Yeah, I know I should have been done long ago. Well, I am done basically, I just need some really good info on voodoo, gotta get it right....

Other than that, lets see, hmm... Oh, I went to K-Con (Sherrilyn Kenyon's conference) It was so great. She is such a amazing lady. I got to meet another sweet lady at the conference and her name is Barbara Vey. She is with Publishers Weekly and she blog's about books and such. Maybe one day when I'm pubbed she'll blog about me too. (hint hint Barbara).

The Holidays are among us, and I love it. Yes, it is stressful, but it is so great to hear Christmas music and mostly everyone is much nicer...(mostly)...

Well, gotta go!
Wish the Saints good luck against Houston, unless you are from Texas that is.
