• It’s about the music…


    Music plays a big part of my writing. I love listening to certain songs over and over while writing. So, when it came to getting songs gathered up for Violet Midnight, I was excited. Some of these are pretty different but really paint the picture well.

    Here’s the playlist from YouTube:

    I’m super excited to have a book signing tomorrow where the special music is being provided by Colton Avery. He’s a really talented singer. If you’re in this neck of the woods, be sure to stop by. Details HERE

    Synopsis from IMDB

    The IMF is shut down when it’s implicated in the bombing of the Kremlin, causing Ethan Hunt and his new team to go rogue to clear their organization’s name.

    My Review

    Wow! I felt like I’d run a marathon after watching that movie. Then again, I LOVE ACTION. This nearly bordered on too much, but not quite. I have a HIGH level (from anyone who’s read my writing can attest…I love action!!!)

    Every turn there was something blowing up, or falling, or just….something happening. It was awesome.

    There were a couple of times I lost track of who was who and what was happening…in part because of the overwhelming action…but that’s okay. It wasn’t too bad at all.

    Loved this.

    So…as you might guess my rating is ….

    5 tickets - A must see. Buy a ticket for everyone.

    Have any of you guys seen it? What are your thoughts?

    Okay, head over to KM Wilsher‘s blog and see what she has to say. . .

    PS: Here’s the trailer if you want to check it out:

  • Character Driven…


    I love unique characters. For some reason, I’m drawn to those who are distant, hard, often tattooed and out of control.

    I know, I’m sick.

    But it’s just awesome watching them change during the book/movie.

    Now, I haven’t read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but when I saw this trailer:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KBPru-Pu5Q

    I was HOOKED. The mystery of the story intrigues me, but more so, the girl! Tats, piercings, —and are her eyebrows shaved? She seems like my kind of character.

    Have you guys read this book? Planning on watching the movie? Lots of great actors in it for sure!

    Okay, that’s going to be good…..

    How could it not, right? Chris and Charlize are in the movie. Sure, Charlize is sporting an accent (grrr…) but she’ll pull it off. I just know it. And not to mention the Twilight phenom, Kristen Stewart….I’m not convinced she’ll be awesome, but I can hope.
