Gladiator again



I watched Gladiator again for the thousandth time it seems. Of course, I really just watched the fight scenes. The other actors and actresses did a great job, but really it’s all about Crowe for me. 😉

Didn’t do alot of writing yesterday, though I did manage to finish editing Stealing Life and submit that to LSB. Now just waiting to hear back from them. I’m thinking a late summer release for it. And I’m going beg and plead for Anne Cain to do my cover again. Since she’s done such a great job on the last two.

I’m working on Tony’s story now, plus Understanding Forgiveness, a short story for a special anthology the ManLoveRomance group is putting together for Aspen Mountain Press. I don’t have any other details than my story needs to be finished by March/April. I don’t have much longer to go before it’s done. 🙂

Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday.

The Departed



I’m sure you’re wondering how do I manage to watch so many movies during the week…lol. I usually watch them while I write. I’m a great multi-tasker. 🙂

The Departed was a good movie. Had a great cast..though my favorite out of the bunch wasn’t in it much. Mark Walhberg. But still Matt Damon and Leonardo De Caprio were good. And it ended well, imo. The bad guy got his. Which makes me happy even though I understand about protraying real life and bad guys not always getting punished for what they do.

Finished up re-working Firebird (or Stealing Life as Lila spilled the beans yesterday about the new title) One of my beta readers made some good suggestions, so I worked them in to the story. They ended making it longer.

Faymas, if you stop by today, contact me. You won my SEx blog contest yesterday. We have to work out what you won. lol. Thanks to everyone who stopped by.

Have a great Friday. 🙂

My new laptop


Yes, finally, we picked up my new laptop. A Sony Vaio. 🙂 It’s awesome. Bright, pretty screen. Can’t wait to watch movies on it…lol. I just used it to write on last night. The new Microsoft Word 2007 is actually cool so far. It has the word count at the bottom of the screen, so I don’t have all these different steps to take to find out how many words I’ve written.
It’s got Vista on it, but don’t ask me if it’s easier to use or anything like that…as long as it doesn’t confuse me or make me jump through hoops to get it to work..I’m happy with it. lol. Slightly technically challanged which is why I found and stayed with C. He’s my geek/hero.
I got another 2k done on Two for One (the short story I need to finish in the next week or so). At 18k, I need another 3-7k to make me happy. Hopefully, it can do that. Also, I got some more added to Firebird. I’m thinking maybe another 5 installments for the blog and then I’ll be wrapping up the extra stuff to send to one of my publishers.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great Wednesday. I know I will, playing with my laptop. 🙂
