Halloween fun for all.

Well, we are winding down Coffin Hop for another year. You don’t have to miss all the lovely writers and creepy stories. You can visit them anytime. I do hope you will stop in and visit me too. So on Halloween at 5 p.m. PST Princess will pull a name from a bag. 

I always look forward to Halloween all year round. I dress up for the whole day, after all you get a good costume might as well wear it. This is the first year I am going as a ghosts. I have a few Halloween traditions. Breakfast and then dress up. I make a nice spicy chili for tea. I bake cookies or cupcakes in ghost shapes too. I give gifts also to my loved ones and friends. I find fun things to make them smile and pop in some yummy candy. My Halloween Village will be on and the garden will be lit up. We will read nice spooky stories before bed too. I will post pictures of Princess and I dressed up.

Do you have any Halloween traditions? I would love to hear about them. I want to Thank you also for visiting my blog and all the kind words. I am writing and hope to have a new book out by the first of the year.

Princess and I will see you Halloween after she picks a winner.

Loads of Photos, blogs I have missed.

I haven't had the time to read all the blogs I enjoy. The few I did were all good fun. Chicks That dig Sports, Dime Store Novels and Pepi's work. I read Aunt Francy's last blog too. I just could not get to all of the blogs. I will catch up someday.
I have been going through over 300 photos my Dad took. I have no idea who some of these people are. I did ask a friend of his he said he didn't know them either.  So what to do with these photos? I am debating as to putting them in the picture book. Many of the pictures are double exposure so they have cool look to them. I have identified all the aircraft and landmarks thanks to the Pima Air Museum. I am no expert on WWII but I understand the pictures are something WWII buff's will love. Now to title the book. Any suggestions welcome and you get credit for it!
Having finished my outline for a book too. It seems a bit long for just one story. My son says just write and we will see.
As for my health, I am feeling better. Still have a lump on my throat and feel off. I find out next week I hope why. 
So tell me what are your favorite blogs and why?

Haunted Bedtime Stories, Haboob's and Agents excuses

We had a nice Dark and Stormy Monsoon. If you saw the massive Haboob in Phoenix it came up from Tucson. We had 70 miles per hour winds. The rain was nice but the wind shook the windows. Now we have humid, hot and stick weather. I hope we get nice storms this weekend.
My foot is healing. It doesn't hurt like it did. Less pain medicine is needed that's always good.
'Haunted Bedtime Stories' is coming alone. A few ghost who are funny, scary and endearing to your heart. I hear you will love it. I think so.
I have read 2 blogs this week who went on about why Agents don't pick you up as a client. The blame still is you, your query letter isn't strong enough, you story is lacking something. Agents are so busy they can't send you sorry letters and that is why you hear nothing or get a form letter. Makes you wonder. I think they just want a grantee that they will make money. Please remember don't think outside the box they hate it. I think everyone is busy. Your time means something even if you are not a famous person yet. You still matter I wish agents felt you did too. I feel saying thank you is important as well.
Thank you all again so much for you support and well wishes on my surgery.
I hope you have a great weekend reading all the cool indie writers. So what are you reading?
