Storms over Savannah, Georgia–Vintage Look

I love storm clouds so take pictures whenever I see them. Yes, we did get rained on when we were out and about. One of my favorite signs–I have a picture somewhere–is: “Don’t Feed the Alligators.” And it’s no joke.

Hope you all have a great day! I’m off to get my writing jump started. I’m at the halfway point on Highland Wolf, yay!

Tropical Storm Beta

I’m hoping to turn in Tangling with the Wolf today. I finished writing it yesterday, and once I finish beta reader edits, it’ll be ready to go.

Tornado Looking Clouds

We’re under tropical storm warnings, had a light rain all day yesterday, ended up with 2″ of rain. And I got a ton of weeding done. Yay!

It’s so dark this morning, it’s like the sun never rose. It’s perfectly moody. It would be a great time to write the Cougar Halloween Trouble novella. We’re supposed to get more rain through Tuesday. My Weather Channel is doing weird things though. Instead of giving an hourly report from the hour it is now, it’s showing at 1 pm, 4 hours from now. Must be all the spooky stuff going on with the weather.

Little one is here and is watching Halloween stories, so I’m feeling in a spooky mood.

I need to do the edits from my other beta reader before I can send it in and then work on Cougar. I was looking at some photos of couples I could use. Looks like it’s going to be a pirate Halloween theme.

Hope you all are having a good day and hope the areas that have been hit so badly with all the other storms are going to be all right. We’ve been missing most of it.

Sunrise and Stormclouds

A rainbow appeared and a ladybug landed on my chair when I first started taking pictures from my hotel room patio. Sunrise, rainbow, and storm clouds made for the perfect setting over the ocean.

I turned in Wolff Bros, and now just need to finish up White Wolf to the Rescue so I can jump back on Billionaire She-Wolf.

Have a great one!!!!

Art in Nature

Storm clouds are paintings in progress! Ever changing.

Okay, finished the proofing of Silver and then oops, had a thought. With the 10th Anniversary release of Destiny of the Wolf this year, I added two new characters to Silver Town. Since the original book’s release, I’ve written several books set in Silver Town and no mention of these characters, naturally, so this will give me–and readers–an opportunity to see the characters again.

Baby’s on her way. I’ll try to make those changes today on the book sometime today and otherwise, I’m off to play with a toddler.

Have a beautiful day!

Storms Make for Great Vampire Days…and Nights

 

We had stormy-looking weather, barely any chance of rain, and it poured. Yay! The sunset was spectacular! It truly looked like a vampire day…and night!

One of the covers I had to redo for my vampire series, was The Siren’s Lure. I loved the first one I had, but it was a stock photo that I found was popping up all over other authors’ books, so I had to create my own.

I had to put aside Silver Town Wolf Christmas for a day because I had to work on final edits for You Had Me at Jaguar. They’re due Friday, and I have to take care of baby on Wed and Fri, so today I’ll finish it up and turn it in. I have 3 more chapters and a prologue to go. And then I’ll be adding the edits in that I’ve done on the paper copy of Silver Town Wolf Christmas.

I can’t remember why I started writing vampire novellas, but I did, and so this is one of them!

Siren's Lure new cover1 with font 1000

The Siren’s Lure, a novella

A vampire wishes upon a falling star and ends up with more than he bargained for. When he attempts to rescue a woman in distress, he soon learns she’s not quite human and not a huntress–or at least like any he’s ever known. That’s when the seduction begins–but who is seducing whom?

Tristina isn’t a huntress in the normal sense. Before meeting the vampire who would rescue her from danger, she never thought anyone could love her for herself. Now, just maybe she’s found the right man for her.

Sardis wants nothing more than a vacation from his ponderous role as prince of the New York vampire clans, but ends up having anything but a peaceful time while staying at a beach resort when he meets the most enticing siren. Trouble doesn’t even begin to describe the new world he finds himself in as he tries to seduce her, and he falls under her siren’s spell instead.

But last time they looked ominous and dissipated into a hot, sunny day. We ended up walking the baby even. Still, I need to walk to the mailbox, plant a plant, and then get to work on the story, secure from the storms, if they truly come.

Have a great one!

You Know You Need Rain When…

Everywhere you go–the grocery store, the post office, the bank–everyone’s talking about it. The woman behind me in line at the grocery store said she’d just texted her husband: It’s going to rain!

Yep. It wasn’t supposed to until Sat night, so I looked at the forecast and it changed it’s mind and said this morning at 4 am. Well, it rained at 7 am. And you know what? I don’t care! Just as long as we get it. But no flooding. Thank you very much. We have heavy thunderstorms starting in 15 mins, and it was nice out, cool even, so I was out pulling grass in the light rain. Yes!

We’re supposed to have rain for around ten days. Yay! But please don’t flood.

airliner storm clouds 016 name (800x533)Do you see the airliner next to that cloud? That shows just how big that cloud is.

storm clouds 023 anvil white and gold (800x533)This is an anvil cloud. I kept trying to get around to get a better angle of the clouds, but the houses were in the way. I considered going around to take a picture around the block, lightning was flashing and it can strike from 10 miles away, so I thought better of it.

storm clouds 009 beautiful (800x533)So the houses just needed to be moved. But on the other hand, I think it’s kind of interesting. Like the tip of the iceberg. Not knowing what lays beyond. The mystery. And as you can see, the system started out at the last picture shown, and then ended up in the massive one way above the homes.

Today, it’s just gray. But that’s okay. Because rain is coming! And I’m 2,000 ahead on word count again! And I have 2 bears orders to get out. And more critiques to do. And…I need to get to work!

Have a wonderful day! It’s cooler here!!! Woohoo!

Wildlife Walk with the Puppies

Walking trail

Walking trail

My son says this is around a 15 mile walking trail. It’s so neat to see things like this in other places–we walked nearly 3 miles, the puppies and my son’s dog pulling us, and then nearer the end, Tanner sat on his butt as if to say, “Enough!”

But they managed to make it the whole way before it got dark and we made it safely to the car before the zombies came out. Maybe I should have said vampires. They tend to come out at night. But it was so quiet out there, and except for a runner and a few bikers, it seemed more like a zombie’s world.

We saw tons of birds and wildflowers.

We had a nice breeze, and the sun was setting, so cooler, but it had been over 90 degrees. Really an enjoyable way to end the day. 🙂 <3

The lower layer of clouds had all turned pink, but as you can see, we still have a lot of massive storm clouds in the area.

We have heavy thunderstorms for the middle of the night and some tomorrow.

But I’m fine with it as long as the houses don’t get flooded. I know that it will eventually stop raining and we’ll be wishing we had some again!

Have a terrific Thursday!

Oh, and here is Max–I told him not to go outside while I was taking a video of the rain. Just like a little kid.
