Blog postAre you stumped on what to get people for Christmas? Me too. I am one of the world's worst present givers and although I spend a ton of time thinking about what to get someone, I rarely get it right. And even if I do, I think I didn't.
I thought I'd write a list of things I see other people buy, seeing I work retail in America's Department Store -- Macy's!
Chocolates - prewrapped are great!
Pajamas - so many fun ones out there
Socks - Themed socks are popula -
Blog postI guess it isn't very nice to say that Christmas is looming. That word suggests something ominous hovering over the city.
Christmas is on it's merry way!
And no one is thinking Christmas more than me because for the last month, I've been writing Christmas Romance screenplays in hopes of selling one!
I have books, novellas, short stories, screenplays, and scripts. Take your pick. But my latest work is writing a believable Christmas movie but still keeping in the hunky new guy, t -
Blog postThe Holiday Season is upon us!
And that means lots of work for women who put together decorations, cookies, presents etc. What better way to relax and do something special for yourself than feeding your mind and heart with happily-ever-after Christmas stories? Get lost in a romance? Read a book that warms your heart?
Snuggle up by a fireplace with a mug of hot cocoa, burrow in to a mohair blanket and open this Christmas anthology by USA Today Bestselling and Award-Winning Auth -

Blog postHow would you cope if a car accident took your sight?
"Being blind sucks the big one," Bryndle Moody says in Moody & The Ghost.
5 months after the accident, Bryndle is finally trying to pick up the pieces from the accident that took her husband's life when she discovers she's lost her clairvoyance too.
Her whole life, Bryndle has seen and talked to ghosts. Except now. Grieving for Harry, then grieving for her eyesight, and now this. As a well-known g -
Blog postHollywood loves Adaptations (See? I even capitalized the “A”.)
The number of Academy Award Winning movies that were once novels, memoirs, comic books, stage plays, etc. is staggering.
A studio executive in the movie industry is more likely to read an adaptation from a successful book than a screenplay with no history of fans and nothing to speak for it.Even if your book isn't a NY Times Bestseller, it might translate well to screen. Have you ever thought this? Me too. -
Blog postDo you love comfort food as the weather gets cooler here in the Northern Hemisphere? Me too. And comfort food means carbs, a veggies, cheese and something I can eat with my hands.

Blog postThis novel is a 4-5 hour read and is the first book in the Moody & The Ghost series, originally written as a TV pilot.
AMAZON: http://amzn.com/B07G1G5VN3
Moody is a paranormal investigator who has recently lost her sight in a tragic accident that took her husband's life and left a large scar across her face. After months of grieving, she's ready to pull up her big girl pants and get back to helping ghosts move on to the after world. But, it's not so easy. Her clairvoy -
Blog postMost Indie Authors count on reviews, the good reviews with lots of stars, to help them get out of bed in the morning and get to that laptop to write. Without validation, we are simpering, insecure, highly-imaginative slaves to the written word. We need lots of love and that means reviews.
Not everyone is prolific on the page and that's why I often write blogs to help readers review.
If you like a book, write something nice for the author. Simple as that.
Here's so -

Blog postFear of the unknown is a powerful emotion.
What's more unknown than paranormal? And that includes ghosts. Bwwwaaaaaa...
I'd like to say my new novel series is really spooky and scary but it's more suspenseful and amusing than filled with horror and fright. There will be spooky moments because it's about a woman inheriting a haunted house, but the book is also about her trying to cope with being newly blind and discovering her new life as a blind paranormal investigator.
As the -
Blog postMy newest book, which launches Sept 6th, is the ongoing story of a woman who's lost her sight and just might lose her business if she doesn't think of something fast.
Bryndle Moody is a paranormal investigator with a Youtube show and thousands of followers who are waiting for her next show. But, having not only lost her sight in a car accident but losing her new husband, has Bryndle grieving and consequently unable to access her clairvoyance or abilities to reach ghosts, something that def -

Blog postHundreds of books will cease to be tonight when Amazon closes Kindle Worlds, the imprint that promoted fan fiction.
With over 40 worlds to choose from, there was a lot of variety and talent from established authors hoping to network broader into the fan base of more successful authors. Some KW authors were NYTimes Bestselling authors themselves, writing for friends, fine-tuning their pen on another genre.
I wrote ROCK BLUFF for the Lei Crime World by Toby Neal. I loved this book and -
Blog postAmazon Encore, an Amazon Imprint, has put my book Necessary Detour on sale at 99cents!
Ever wonder what it feels like to be a celebrity rock star?
With 151 reviews at 4.6*****, this Romantic Suspense #1 Bestseller is a great bargain.
"Necessary Detour thrills with a rush of page-turning suspense and sexy twists!"
~ Ann Charles, USA Today Bestselling Author of the Deadwood Mystery Series

Blog postI'm a first generation immigrant.
I came from Canada twenty-eight years ago. I didn't cross the border in fear of my life back in my country, nor did I feel persecuted or have children that were ripped from my arms by emissaries of the current government.
I simply wanted to live in Hawaii, teach scuba and be married to my American husband. Although there was a lot of paper work and I did everything legally, it was a huge process and speaking English made it possible.
I ca -
Blog postI'm feverishly writing a story about a pirate and a blind psychic falling in love.
It's called Moody & The Ghost and will be a mystery series as well as using the first book for a tv script to pitch to producers.
Moody is Bryndle Moody, a paranormal investigator, with a successful You Tube show who loses her sight and her husband in a tragic accident. When she discovers she's also lost her ability to communicate with ghosts, all seems lost. But she mysteriously inherits a -
Blog postI watched the recent Royal Wedding of Harry and Meghan.
I did.
Not in real time but when I finished work for the day, I sat for hours in front of the TV with two shows on, one featuring highlights and backstory, one taped continuously from two hours before the wedding to after everyone cleared out of Windsor.
Why did I find this so fascinating seeing I never even knew Harry was dating an American until a few months ago?
1. She's American
2. She's 1/2 B -

Blog postIt's hard to get someone to read your screenplay, love it, and option the thing for production.
The odds are probably up there with growing a third nipple.
Then, to get out of development hell and see the project on film is a whole other mountain that needs to be climbed.
Do you write Scripts? Screenplays? Books? Have you pitched to producers, film companies and those muckety mucks who hold your happiness in their hands? Standing out in the crowd of screenwriters in LA i -
Blog postRock Star Confidence...
No one is born a rock star, complete with over-the-top confidence and leather pants. An individual has to work for that. (And grow into the pants.) Ever heard that Nickelback song “We all just want to be big rock stars, live in hilltop mansions driving fancy cars”? These days we use the term Rock Star to mean someone who’s achieved success in their field. Eg) Wow, kids, you finished homework. You are a Rock Star.We tend to look at those who’ve achieved enormous succ -

Blog postJust back from 3 days of talking about writing and marketing, my brain is going to explode if I don't get some of this wisdom on paper.
Virtual paper works too.
If I took any one message from the Chanticleer Author Conference this last weekend it is to be accessible to my readers and cultivate those relationships. Forget about hangin' and talkin' on FB to old friends or writers. If they don't read your books, don't put them first in your business account. I say this because I have ve -
Blog postI just spent 4 1/2 days with 14 women shut up in a house.
No, we weren't kidnapped.
And we weren't there under duress. We wanted to be shut in for days on end.
I was at a writers' retreat. An annual affair I selfishly organize so I can get out of town to buckle down with my laptop to live inside my head, only coming out for short sprints to eat, see if everyone slept well and look at the passing deer and elk out the windows.
My hubby asked if there was any dr -
Blog postMy novel is slated to be a FEATURE FILM!
How cool is that?
Very, very cool, I'd say. When the film company sent contracts to my agent to option the whole series, I was over the moon excited and happy and thankful and vindicated. Yes, vindicated because when I tried to get this first novel an agent or a publisher, no one would touch it.
Because it involves dreaming.
There are numerous flashbacks and dreams and premonitions and the story is complicated. But, I have f -

Blog postCops eat donuts.
I would have thought it was an urban myth until I saw cops in Krispy Kreme buying two boxes of the things. It's a quick snack for immediate energy and maybe that appeals to the profession.
There's lots of jokes about cops and donuts but are there any about cops and malasadas?
In Hawaii, there are a lot of Portuguese people. Why that's so is another thing I'm not exactly sure about. That culture has a donut named the Malasada. Basically, they are the same thing -

Blog postI am a prolific dreamer.
If I wrote as much as I dreamed, I'd have worn off my fingerprints by now from typing.
Each morning, I wake and try to remember my last dream. I do this because my immediate mood is affected by what I was just experiencing in my dream. This morning I woke slightly amazed because my nephew had discovered how to fly. No one had ever tried this before and he was just brave enough to jump off a tower into the wind to discover if he put his arms out he coul -
Blog postAri wasn't my favorite. I didn't even learn to correctly spell his name.
He said "Yeah" a lot.
He said "I love you," a lot.
When you accept the post to be The Bachelor, you must also accept the public's scrutiny of you. I just read he's worried about the finale tonight. I predict he picks no one. Did anyone notice Chris H did not ask him if he was in love last night? Well, he didn't. The first ever in Bachelor history.
Here's what Ari did right,
