Cairns: Man-Made Stacks of Stones

cairns darkened (640x427)Cairns is Scottish Gaelic in origin. It’s interesting that everywhere I go now, I see stacks of stones like this. These were actually in the Highlands of Scotland.

Turning a Photo into Inspiration

lake view in Scotland 002 (640x417)I love taking photos of anything and everything and some of my fans kept saying I needed to frame them. Well, at the old house, I had no space for one more picture of anything. But at the new house, lots of wall space. So…this was one of my most favorite photos of Scotland. Though I have tons. I want to do one of Eilean Donan. But I loved the flowers, trees, the hills and loch. And down below, you can even see the roof of a cottage that adds more character to the photo.

I’ve always wanted to live on the water. I love the water. But I also love trees and hills and flowers. What could be better than being able to glance over from my desk and see the beauty of Scotland whenever I’m writing? It looks like a window to the great outdoors–my personal outdoors. It just needs a castle off in the distance.

Don’t you love it? Do you have a picture that inspires you?

Fresh Fiction Review of A Silver Wolf Christmas by Annetta Sweetko:

http://freshfiction.com/review.php?id=56459

A SILVER WOLF CHRISTMAS is a rollercoaster romance with the perfect amount of suspense and humor. I laughed out loud when CJ had mispronounced Laurel’s last name (it is McTire but pronounced McTier) because I had actually done that myself. They are a good couple and I enjoyed watching as he brought out the playful side of the serious she-wolf. The number of mysteries and troubles that need to be solved in A SILVER WOLF CHRISTMAS just kept adding up. You have the ghost-busters crew, the “C” on the wall that paint didn’t cover, a ghost wolf, and of course the disappearance of the girls’ aunt and the past owners of the hotel. These mysteries all merge together seamlessly in this well-crafted story and it is all lightened up with the Christmas theme as they prepare for the holidays in the midst of the drama. I have read a number of books by author Terry Spear and this one is a winner that will be on my TRA shelf and I await her next offering.

Back to writing!!!

🙂 <3
