Do You Think Man is Making New Diseases? and Blogmania


Hi Everyone,


Today, I have two topics to discuss. First, I want to tell you about Blogmania, which is coming September 15th & 16th, Wednesday and Thursday. On those days, my blog will turn into a eclectic buffet. What better way to get Christmas presents for your loved ones and friends? All you have to do is browse around the blogs participating at Blogmania to find the goodies you need without leaving your home.
On top of not having to go shopping, the things you win will be free. Just to give you a taste of what I have to offer here's a list: 1. A Christmas basket; 2. A fall basket think Halloween/Thanksgiving, which may divided between two baskets if there's too much for one; 3. A hot beverage basket with cup, and there's more. Actually, I need to start putting the baskets together because I can't remember everything I have. lol
Now onto the question I'm asking, Do You Think Man is Making New Diseases? I will be dying to hear your comments.
I think diseases have been here all along, but I do believe with the use of antibiotics that the strains of our present diseases are becoming stronger. This is a very simplistic answer to this question, and I'm sure people who are more knowledgeable will give far better answers.
Until next Sunday, have another great week.

Do You Believe in Global Warming?

Hi Everyone,

We have all listened to the pros and cons on global warming from the scientists, the news media and the politicians. My question is do you believe in global warming?

To get everyone started I will give you my opinion, which I'm very good at doing. Wink!

I do believe in global warming.

There are things going on underneath our earth, in our oceans and outerspace that we are not totally aware of. The things we are aware are also causing global warming such as gas emissions spewing from our vehicles and plants. Some of these things we see but can't visually see the damage being done. For instance, what is happening in our oceans and fresh water lakes.

Just a few weeks ago, ice broke apart in Greenland. Is this due to global warming or to natural circumstances. Would this have happened without the help of man or is it happening because of man? I could go on more on this topic, but I'm eager to hear your opinions.

Reminder: There is no bashing anyone for giving their opinion.

One other thing I want to say is that the TWA reunion at the Aviation Museum in Kansas City at the Charles Wheeler airport was terrific. I enjoyed seeing everyone even though I was about to pass out from the heat. Smile.

Until next Sunday. Have a great week.

What Genre Do You Like to Read?

Hi Everyone,

I have a question for all you readers out there. What genre do you like to read best? I admit I've read nearly everything but my favorite will always be mystery with a mix of romance in the story. When my birthday or Christmas rolled around I could always depend on receiving one book or more, which guaranteed I would sit in a corner reading said book.

Those were the days when I grew up reading Trixie Belden, Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys and more then graduated to Agatha Christie plus whatever I could find in my grandmother's library at the top of the stairs. Oh, the memories of the wholesome stories I found there to read and the hours spent deciding what to read next. I'm a reader, and I'm proud of it.

What is your favorite genre? Do you like mysteries, romantic suspense, inspiratonal, historical, time travel, paranormals, urban fantasy, horror, erotica romance, or do you like a mixture of several of these? I'll eagerly await your comments.

Have a great week until next Sunday.

Sandy

New Book Cover

Good Morning Everyone,

This is going to be very short and sweet because I have a lot of work to do this week. My new bookcover for The Deceived is posted on my blog underneath the cover for Addiction.

I'm also re-posting the blurb for The Deceived.

Blurb for The Deceived

The games they play can lead them to love or ruin.

Melanie Dubois detests her family’s casino business. The way this addiction destroys people has her on a tear of magnificent proportions. Then again, this young lady has been put through a train wreck of her own design. She distrusts everybody except for the people who are determined to use Melanie as a poster-child for zealots.

Mike Mercer has spent nearly a year in a deep cover mission for the FBI. The one fly in the ointment of completing his objective to take down a group of dangerous anti-gambling zealots is a fiery-tempered, blonde-haired woman named Melanie DuBois. Worse than that, she’s got a passion brewing just beneath the surface that’s an even deadlier attraction.

Fighting for your life is never easy when the odds are stacked against you.

Also, this week I'll be trying to get this book cover up on my website along with the blurb. Being untechie it may take awhile.

Until next Sunday keep cool.

Fantastic News

Good Morning Everyone,

It's early, and I'm at work while drinking my first cup of coffee to wake up. Today, I'm thrilled to tell you fantastic news. It's been hard to keep quiet about this news, but I wanted to blog about it. This past week I learned my book, The Deceived, will be released from Eirelander Publishing in digital format on September 10th It will be the last one in the trilogy.

I'm trying to update my website to get an excerpt of The Deceived there, but until then, I'll leave you with a blurb as a teaser. I'm not always serious, I do like to tease once in a while. Smile.
