And I’ve got ‘em. After all the sadness, tragedy and horror of the past week or so, these puppies are my therapy dogs. Regulars around here know Fergus, my darling, wee mannie. Some may have even seen pics or videos including Fergus’ little sister, Sophie. Sophie is visiting this week while her mom travels, so…
Author: C C Cedras
One of two authors who are collaborating on a series of romantic suspense novels. Mostly retired lawyer, Mom of Cavalier King Charles spaniels, Fiona and Archie, and the late, great Fergus who is romping over the rainbow until we all get there, currently loving life in my newly-built forever home on the mountain.
Let’s Talk About Sex
Each Saturday, we take turns writing about our process, experiences or works-in-progress as we set about writing our Great American Novels first novels. We’ve told you that we describe our genre, or sub-sub-genre, to be contemporary romantic suspense. For the purposes of this post, the emphasis is on romantic. Or, more accurately, scenes of physical…
Whip-poor-WILL!
I was driving home from town after dark last night and spooked a whip-poor-will off my gravel road. I breathed a small sigh of relief that it flew into the woods farther from the house. This guy likes to hang out around my house and garden and that is a problem. Not a particularly attractive…
Just Because You Can…
…Doesn’t Mean You Should. I’ve heard, said and thought that more times than I can count, followed closely by, “do you ever look in the mirror before you go out?” This post is brought to you by the young woman I saw this past weekend exiting Mecca Starbucks with a male friend. She was seen…
That I May Serve
Ut prosim [u̇t ˈprō-sim] – that I may serve. My point, more precisely is that we may serve. This isn’t about me, you see, it’s about how we pay it forward throughout our lives. I like to think we all do it in one way or many, sometimes perhaps without conscious purpose. Wednesday, a highly…
What a Character!
When we three started this collaboration to write, and publish, our novels, we had what we thought were pretty well developed characters and plots…silly to think so, as it turned out. At least for me. To be sure, K. R. Brorman’s and S. A. Young’s characters have matured since those innocent times, but they haven’t…
my life so far
since i was helping mom at the computer this morning, she said i should just write today’s blog post. i’m just only 10 and a half months old (and i don’t have thumbs, duh), what can i write about? i’ll just start at the beginning. mom brought me home when i was 11 weeks old….
Complicity of Evil
I thought about so many things I could write about today (Thursday is my day in the barrel to write thoughtfully about topics that will hopefully interest you, dear readers) – there was a kernel of an idea about the state of the weeds in my garden that are the bane of my current existence,…
Cake By The Ocean
I’ve spent way too much time on this. I hear a catchy song, it sets a tiny hook in my brain – I don’t even know the lyrics, just that I pick up a line of chorus and it becomes my earworm for the foreseeable future. Then I saw it performed on The Voice this…
Would You Hit It?
Once upon a time (*snort* you see what I did there?), this is what the covers of romance novels looked like. To be honest, many still do. And then there’s Fabio. Fabio Lanzoni, who’s ripped many a bodice, made a career out of posing for romance novel covers. …
