Love=Happily ever after…or happy for now? (Part One)
In honor of Valentine’s Day. I am asking a few questions most readers want to know. Does happily ever after exist? Or are we all just happy for now? This is question I read a lot in the writer texts. It is the objective for each romance novel to result in one of these outcomes. […]

A year older? Perhaps wiser?
Ever notice that with each birthday it becomes a moment of reflection…your last year…what are you going to do this year? For me it is always a moment to set higher expectations for myself, to reflect on what I didn’t do the previous year…I’m incredibly hard on myself… As quick as I am to be […]

The dark side…when villains cross the line…why we love them.
Have you ever watched a movie where your supposed to be rooting for the hero… but instead you like the villain more? On of the things that makes us root for said villain is the likability or relatability. Just like traits we look for in hero’s… we need these for our villains too, we need […]
