Summer Movies

I plan to see every single movie that looks good this summer just for fun.

We started the summer of movies with Thor, and it was an awesome movie.  I had so much fun and it was a great way to kick off what should be a very entertaining summer.

Here are the rest of the movies I plan to see:

June 3                         X-Men: First Class

June 10                       Super 8

June 17                       Green Lantern

July 15                        Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

July 22                        Captain America: The First Avenger

Those are the movies I absolutely want to see in the theater this summer.  Did I miss any great ones?  What are you looking forward to watching this summer?

To everything there in a season…

Most of my favorite things are things I did not like when I was first introduced to them.  I’m not sure if that means that my tastes are maturing or what but it’s true.

My first example is Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the TV show.  When it first came out I had just read Anne Rice’s Vampire chronicles and was still in love with her beautiful vampires. I thought vampires with crinkled up foreheads were stupid and never even tried to watch the show.  Later on in college, I ended up watching all the shows in order and I was hooked.

The next example is Farscape.  When I first saw it I was completely uninterested.  Then I started with the first episode and watched it all the way through to the end of the season and I was in love.  The same thing happened with Firefly, another absolutely amazing sci-fi show.

Most recently this had happened with The Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin.  I picked up A Game of Thrones years ago and I just could not get into it at all so it stayed on my bookshelf for a long time.  Then about a month ago I picked it up again and I was in love and I’m currently reading a Storm of Swords.  I’m hooked.  It is such an amazing story with such amazing story telling I really feel like I can’t say enough good things about the series. 

So I guess I’m like that and should always give things a second look because my tastes will surely change.  I wonder if everybody is like that…

First Blog


I just published my first book Always Darkest on Amazon.com a few days ago and I am still on a major high!  Always Darkest is a dark but funny fantasy romance novella being sold for $0.99 and I really hope that everyone enjoys it.  I would like to say Thank You to the people who have already bought it.  I don’t know who you are but you really made my day!

A big thank you to my husband for all his support!  I truly couldn’t have done it without him.  Also, thanks to my sister, Kayla, for being my first test reader. 

I am plan to at least blog every Friday and maybe more often if I have something interesting to talk about.

Thanks for reading…

Here is the link for my book:
