Buffy's Ramblings

Hey y'all. I'm very excited that Sandra Bunino nominated me for the Liebster Award! Thank you so much Sandra! She's been very good to me, and as one of the first authors I've met on my journey as both a writer and blogger, she's been super supportive. I can't thank her enough and I feel like the friendship has only begun :-) These awards are so fun because they're a little self-esteem boost plus you get to know about people! So with this one, the rules - well guidelines - are: 1) Post the award on his or her blog. 2) Thank the nominator and link back to his or her blog. 3) Write 11 random facts about yourself. 4) Answer 11 questions about yourself that the nominator has asked. 5) Nominate 11 fellow bloggers. 6) Make up 11 original questions for your nominees to answer. So here goes... 11 RANDOM FACTS ABOUT ME: 1) I'm addicted to buying books. 2) My biggest pregnancy addiction is frosting. (By the way, did you know that frosting dip...

Hey y'all. I'm very honored that Tara Lain named me a very inspiring blogger! Thank you so much! I am to name 7 things about myself and then nominate 15 other bloggers. Here's my 7 facts (warning they might be a little sappy): 1) I frequently fall in love with romance book heroes. I'm an absolute junkie. My biggest crush though has got to be Wrath from Black Dagger Brotherhood, with Z and V coming in at a close second. *swoon* I also adore quite a few contemporary ones too though, especially if I imagine them looking like Chris Hemsworth :D 2) I think I might be better at writing short stories than novels. Though I think being overly critical of myself too early (a first draft is supposed to suck) might be a factor in that...I'm a big chicken at this point, and have terrible self-discipline right now when it comes to making myself sit down and write. I also suffer from too many ideas, and not enough actual writing done > 3) There are a few aut...

So once again, the lovely Sandra Bunino tagged me!  This time she's tagged me for a writing challenge.  The challenge is to find all the "LOOK"s in your current WIP, pick your favorite three, and post the paragraphs that contain them. I've done my homework and found that in just the first few chapters of my book alone, there are FIFTY-SIX...that's 56 "look"s in some form.  So I chose 3 that use the base word and have vowed to weed some of those out when I go through edits. ***** The first thing I felt was nausea. I tried to speak words of comfort to settle Amber down, but nothing came out, and I still couldn’t look at her. I heard footsteps and turned to my own door to see a man lean down and console Amber behind me. He said that 911 had been called and try to remain still and calm. That was when I could see the truck that must have hit us some feet away. ***** When I could look again, a man stood before me. A man with wings. ***** I...

So I'm all kinds of giddy...I got my very first blog award! Sandra Bunino is such a sweet heart, and nominated me as one of her seven. She has such a talent for writing sweet and sexy stories that I look forward to every word she writes and I'm touched she thought of me :-) So here are the rules: Nominate seven to ten blogs and share seven things that others won't know about you. It can be something of your work that you've not previously shared, or random personal facts, just as long as there are seven and they're not widely known beforehand. Here you'll find Sandra's seven random tidbits. As for mine, here goes: 1) I'm a mac & cheese addict...seriously I could live off the stuff. The Blue Box (Kraft for anyone not in the know) is the best, but I'll take it any way I can get it... 2) Living with two men (hubby and a friend of his who works close by) has rubbed off on me...I make fun of women drivers even though I am one (...
