I created a new database for all authors to fill out. I've also created a folder in the file section for people to put synopsis for their WIP. I've already had one publisher asking about two of the stories in there. So publishing houses are looking at all our files and databases for authors. It's good to get recognized.

Hey, Keta...Thanks for joining. The kids are my grandkids. I have seven altogether, and will probably post a few of them occasionally. They are my biggest fans!

Hi Keta,
Can't wait to read Decadent Deceptions. I'm in Middle Georgia and we had a couple of inches of snow - first snow in a few years! Fun, but cold.
Have a good week.

LOL...I don't know about Bo Bo being a jungle cat but I have a personal invite to meet him the next time I visit my sister:) Below is my email address and I'd love to chat whenever you have time. After many years of working my time is my own but I understand everybody doesn't have the same luxury as yet.

Hey Keta...I'm glad you enjoyed my photos. One of my other passions. The adorable kitties were made by a woman by the name of Sue, who lives in my sister's neighborhood in Berlin, MD (close to Ocean City). She also makes dogs. Sue loves to sew and is a member of a quilt club. The club uses the handmade kitties/dogs as part of fund raisers to contribute to a scholarship fund. Sue has her own real live 20 pound kitty named Bo Bo, whom my sister has met and says is a sweetheart. It all started when my sister sent the other two of us our own kitties as a fun gift and then I in turn ordered some through my sister to gift some friends of mine. She uses seasonal as well as breast cancer survivor material. I'll post photos of Sue and Bo Bo.

I do love crafts but that hobby has almost entirely been replaced by reading;) For years I was very involved with miniatures (1 inch=1 foot) as in doll's houses and accessories. I made plants, baskets, food, kit bashed (altered/customized), made room boxes for family and was commissioned to do a few for friends. It's an extremely labor intensive hobby and runs the gamet of working with many craft mediums like paper, cloth, wood, plastic, metal, electronics, paints, clay etc. and all while staying in scale. There's no object in real life that can't be made or obtained in miniature. The hobby dates back to the sixteenth century and as time has passed the quality of material, reproduction and workmanship has improved to a phenomenal degree. Indeed, some gifted miniaturist are considered artist and can probably almost make their living from their speciality but most can not and have varying degrees of skill. (While not a miniature but fully grown does it not make sense that my dog of heart was a little five pound ball of fur?:)

Some of the plants on the cover of the Nutshell News are mine (August 1986). I don't remember how or why but they were borrowed to incorporate in the scene. I served as a Regional Coordinator (volunteer position) over a several state area as part of the National Association of Miniature Enthusiast or better known as N.A.M.E. for a couple of years. It was a membership organization...anybody who loved miniatures and paid the nominal dues could join. In many ways it compares to the set-up of the various member romance writers associations that exist in each state and then has a headquarters to maintain the mission of the organization.

My "friends" you see me with at "high tea" are my two younger sisters at a wonderful establishment in Ocean City, MD, called "Tea By The Sea" and was one of our outings during Sisters Week (where we get together specifically to enjoy each others company once or twice a year). My sister made reservations and we were served about seven small courses along with a number of tea selections. Everything was sinfully delicious and filling. The hats are chosen by patrons from a trunk for the occasion and to add to the ambiance:) It was a first for me and thoroughly delightful.

The "outhouse" is a tongue-in-cheek and just for fun graphic I used when I first joined WRDF. Since the outhouse has the light on I left it to one's imagination that it was also a place to enjoy reading. Lynda Coker picked up on the joke immediately *grin*. I also like the graphic partly because it's a bit of nostalgia for me...when we used to visit my grandmother as kids, I was fascinated by her outhouse. I had never known such a wonder. Then, too, years ago I was commissioned to make a miniature outhouse for a friend of mine that she wanted to give as a gift to a relative. I loved the challenge of the project and will have to dig up the photo to post.

You also seem like a fun person to chum with...you're devotion to True sealed the deal;) Hugs....Nancy:)

P.S. Now I really must get to reading your excerpts....

Keta...You may have noticed the sheltie (Sassy) in my photos...the clown sleeping in between my couch cushions. Currently she, along with one other sheltie, belong to a girlfriend of mine but the sweet girl she had prior to that, I was practically her second mother for several years. Her name was Sunny and she was every good thing ever said about a sheltie and a devoted love bug. You'll understand when I tell you she used to stand guard between my room and Diana's when they would spend the night. She "needed" to see both of us.

Sunny also had to be sent to the Bridge at the age of 12, less than a year later than my yorkie, Misha. Diana and I were both there for Sunny. She and Misha are buried in plots on Diana's land and while she loves her current fur kids unconditionally Sunny was the dog of her heart like your True Blue. We like to believe that they are at the Rainbow Bridge together...happy, healthy and waiting for us. I've added a picture of Sunny and myself to my photos. Best....Nancy

Hi Keta...Thank you for the comments about Misha. I love animals and dogs in particular - specifically yorkies are my heart. The picture is of Misha, who I had for 13 years. She was such a joy. She died in 2001 but still lives in my heart. Before her, I had two other girls for 15 years.

I know a number of yorkie owners who also have cats...I think it probably depends on ages and perhaps how the introductions are handled;) Misha got along with the cat who lived downstairs...mostly by pretending he didn't exist. So I can say she loved all people; tolerated cats, and hated other dogs. Hey, nobody can be perfect. Oh yeah, Misha also got along with my sister's two shelter cats when we'd go for a visit ~ again by mostly ignoring them.

I'm assuming you saw the partial list of authors that I read or maybe noticed my name as a reader-member at RJR. I noticed yours there:) I love erotica and or sensual romance across many genres. Porn is just boring. I want a good story, character depth ~ I want to be drawn in and be there in the story. I prefer hot reads or at least sensual but I also read a few thriller/suspense authors (Vince Flynn, Cross Series of James Patterson, David Baldacci) outside of the romance genre. I read menage once in awhile but multi-partners really don't work for me. In the end I still want the one man, one woman HEA. Sometimes a little well done kink spices things up in a good way. I like strong heroines and heros as partners. I hate heroines that too stupid to live.

You're a new to me author but I look forward to checking out your web site and reading your excerpts at the first opportunity. Thanks for the friend invite.

P.S. I'm also into "24":)

TV drains the brain. I'm sure you're better off for it.
