I admit it. I picked this video because A) I love the title, and B) the blurb intrigued me. Both made me want to watch the video. But the music was very catchy, and the pictures were nostalgic and very evocative. (I grew up in a place that looked very similar, fyi). I also like the idea of an older heroine. So I'll start you off with the same [...]
Okay. I admit it. I have not read any of the Twilight books. I don’t know crap about them. I am among the ignorant. My teenager loves them. I have adult friends that have seen the movies and have watched them a hundred times. I write paranormal stories and I don’t want to be influenced by the Twilight craze. I’m sure one day I [...]
It’s Tuesday again and you chickies know what that means. It feels good to actually be at home! I will be for about two more weeks at least. Then it’s on the road again. At the end of the month, Samantha, Eliza and I will be hanging out and signing at the Book Expo America in New York City. You'll find us there hocking our stories to [...]
Howdy Kids…I’ve had a long break. There’s been so much going on in the Freeman household that I had to take a week or so off from the blog. We had a ton of family (and kids full time) in our home over the holidays. It was a first for me, but will not be the last time I host the holidays. I loved it all. The hustle, the stress, [...]
Morning… It’s my turn at Trailer Trash Tuesday and I found a trailer I love. It’s for Sin Club by Rachelle Chase. I love this video for a couple of reasons.First, there are several hotties peppered throughout the video – both male and female. I think the overuse of stock photography is starting to show in many of the [...]
Ah yes, I have quickies on my mind for several reasons today! Three actually. One – I’m writing a Quickie length story right now that I am moving more like a Slowie than a Quickie on my word count. Two – I’m going to keep my comments short on the Trailers for that very reason. And Three- HB is working from home [...]
I searched half the night for a video for today's Trailer Trash Tuesday. At long last I found one. And I really like it! Before I get to it, I'm going to complain, though. Wow, not a lot of good videos out there right now. (Today's isn't a new one, but it's new to me.) Anyway, I was looking for videos for books I've read recently that I really [...]
Last night I started my video research for this week’s TTT. It was a little late when I hit the computer. I’d had a couple of glasses of vino (no real shock there?). It’s been a long weekend, so I was feeling a little quirky! Again, no real shock there, huh?I stumbled across a great author made video. I’ve really enjoyed a [...]
We’re back from RomantiCon and boy am I beat. What a great conference. It was small, well put together and tons of fun. I’ll blog more about the convention tomorrow. This is, after all, Trailer Trash Tuesday. I’m using the conference to inspire my choices of videos for today. While in Ohio, I met many authors with great [...]
I can't believe it's Tuesday already! Didn't I just blog like yesterday? Oops, slipping into teen speak. This week's book trailer is for a paranormal YA novel called Demon Envy, by Erin Lynn. I like the pictures, I think they do a good job of helping to flesh out the storyline. It's a relatively simple video, actually, and I like that. This [...]
