Thursday Ramblings - March 18, 2010

If you haven't heard, my adult horror story, "The Leeds Devil," is in the the anthology "Howl: Dark Tales of the Feral and Infernal" - available now on amazon.com and createspace.com. I'm currently reading "The River King's Road" by Liane Merciel. I received the book last Thursday. My review of the book will be published on March 25, 2010 as part of a Blog Tour.

I finally got caught up on writing book reviews. I had a pile of "Goosebumps Horrorland" books on my desk. I've written a review for all of them. I'll post them at a later date.

I won the book"A Cousin's Challenge" by Wanda E. Brunstetter from a book giveway on goodreads.com. I received the book in the mail yesterday. It looks like it will be a good read.

More Mail News: I got the book "Cowgirl At Heart" by Christine Lynxwiler in the mail last Friday. Last Thursday, along with "The River King's Road," I received "Demon Possessed" by Stacia Kane and "The Birds and the Frogs" by Brian D. McClure. The review for "Demon Possessed" was posted today as part of a Blog Tour. "The Birds and the Frogs" was posted on Sunday.

On Friday, I received the books that I had ordered off of overstock.com. They were: "Prom Nights From Hell" by Stephenie Meyer, Kim Harrison, Meg Cabot, Lauren Myracle and Michelle Jaffe; "Thirteen: 13 Tales of Horror by 13 Masters of Horror" by R.L. Stine, Caroline B. Cooney, Christopher Pike, D.E. Athkins, A. Bates, Jay Bennett, Carol Ellis, Diane Hoh, Lael Littke, Sinclair Smith, J.B. Stamper, Ellen Emerson White and Patricia Windsor; "Eye Candy" by R.L. Stine; "The Baby-sitter" by R.L. Stine; "Fear Street Nights: Moonlight Secrets" by R.L. Stine; "Fear Street Nights: Midnight Games" by R.L. Stine; and "Fear Street Nights: Darkest Dawn" by R.L. Stine. As you can see I'm a R.L. Stine Fan.

On Saturday I bought the book "Sweep" by Cate Tiernan. Today, I bought the book "My Zombie Valentine" by Katie MacAlister, Angie Fox, Marianne Mancusi, and Lisa Cach.

I stopped by the library and picked up two books on the "free books" shelf. The books are: "Born Into Light" by Paul Samuel Jacobs and "John Chancellor Makes Me Cry" by Anne Rivers Siddons.

Today, I got the book "Imaginary Jesus" by Matt Mikalatos in the mail. I'll probably read it over the weekend, so expect my review to be up sometime next week.

I plan on watching "The Stepfather" DVD tonight.

I finally got out of my so-called "writer's block." I've jotted down several new plot ideas. I started writing on a new story this week. Everything is going well.
