The Joker Journal...

Before he became the iconic Joker, Heath Ledger spent a month in a hotel room trying to find the character. This 15 minute film explores that event. Well worth watching, but not for the faint of heart...

Summer giveaway--e-book or audiobook :-)

It's summer, it's hot and we could all use a little pick-me-up. That's why I'm giving away 5 copies of my short story, "If You'd Just Listened to Me in the First Place". Each winner has the choice of an e-book or audiobook. To enter, just comment on this post. Drawing will be July 31. :-D

Book blurb:

"Nagging just sounds so negative, and I am not a negative person. Truth is, I’m the kind of person you'd ask for directions if you were lost, or tell your life story to while waiting in line at the grocery store, which has happened on more than one occasion, believe me."

Sure, Ella Boudreaux is great at nagging--in fact, she’s the best---but where has it gotten her?

Nowhere, that’s where.

She can’t hold onto a job and she can’t find her true calling, but she knows it’s out there. Could a handsome stranger help her find her destiny? Or maybe he was her destiny...
