General musings

  • Valentine’s Day …

    Just wanted to wish everyone a happy Valentine’s Day. Spend some time with your sweetheart or the folks you care about. And definitely eat some chocolate. πŸ˜‰

  • Super Bowl time …

    So who are you guys rooting for in the Super Bowl on Sunday? I’m going with the Green Bay Packers since they haven’t won it since the 1990s. (Sorry, Super Librarian Amy.)

    Wheezley, my significant other, is a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, so I imagine he will have some lively comments during the game — especially if things don’t go the Steelers way. LOL.

    In the meantime, here’s a cool video with some funny comments from players who were wired up on the sidelines this year.

    I just hope it’s a good game — and that the commercials are better this year than they were last year. Anyway, enjoy the last football game of the season and remember — we’re all undefeated tomorrow. πŸ˜‰

    Is it September yet?

  • Just a reminder …

    I mean to post this every month, but it doesn’t always happen. Anyway, this is a reminder that I do a monthly e-newsletter that features my latest news, a couple of book recommendations, and a recipe. I also give away books to subscribers every month just for being subscribed to the newsletter list.

    To sign up for the newsletter, click over to the home page and fill out the form on the right-hand side of the page. You can also follow me on Facebook, Twitter, and Goodreads. I try to cross post and link to all of the major stuff (my book news, cover art, reviews, etc.) on all of the sites, but that doesn’t always happen either. LOL.

    Anyway, go forth and sign up, if you wish. Hope everyone has a great weekend! πŸ˜‰

  • Merry Christmas …

    I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. I hope you can spend the day with family, friends, and loved ones — and that Santa brings you plenty of good books to read in the new year. πŸ˜‰

    May your day be merry and bright!

  • A holiday break …

    I can’t believe it’s just a week until Christmas now. Where did the month go? Heck, where did the year go? It’s a mystery to me. LOL.

    Anyway, I know folks will be super busy with holiday stuff, and I’ve got several family things coming up, so I’m going to slack off on blogging for the next week. I plan to resume my usual Monday-Wednesday-Friday blog schedule on Dec. 27.

    Until then, here’s some Friday fun: the trailer for the Thor movie that’s coming out in May. Maybe I’m a little bias because my new Mythos Academy YA series is about Greek, Norse, and other gods, but I think the movie looks pretty cool. Gods and superheroes in one movie — stuff is sure to blow up. πŸ˜‰

    So stay warm, stay safe, and brave the malls to get those last-minute gifts … if you dare. πŸ˜‰
