Greetings, dear readers! Yes, I know, it has been quite some time since I have posted a blog. I could provide a litany of reasons why I have essentially vanished from social media, but today - for the last day of Ehlers-Danlos Awareness Month - instead I would like to focus on this debilitating and degenerative joint disorder.  I have had Type III EDS all my life but was not properly diagnosed until 2011.  Then all the puzzle pieces began to fall into place: the sprains, the splints, the surgeries. My symptoms have continued to worsen to the point where pain and injuries frequently require complete bed rest, all from a condition that others cannot even see.  (Effects on social life of invisible disorder.) The following events occurred in 2007-2008, three years prior to my diagnosis. In 2009, one of the physicians who had treated me sent me this email: Ms. Saucier - I have been asked to give a presentation on evaluation of abdominal pain to a large conference of...

Gentle Readers, Welcome to this week's My Sexy Saturday ! This week’s theme:  Sexy Today .  So today, there really is no theme except sexy today. Authors are free to post whatever they want within the normal rules. Just make it sexy, sexy and more sexy... I have selected a little snippet from the psychological, romantic suspense Alicia's Possession . Alicia is the last person Detective Mason Crawley should pursue since she is at the heart of his investigation into a disappearance, which eventually turns into a hunt for a killer; but her palpable sadness and vulnerability awaken his Dominant nature and instinct to protect. Is he is falling in love with a woman who is dangerously delusional, a witness to a cleverly-concealed crime, or a murderer? “I’m going to kiss you again.” “No,” she whispered when his mouth hovered mere millimeters over hers. He dropped his hand from her arm to the small of her back and pulled her against him, and she gasped at the unmista...

Good morning, dear readers!   Have you missed me??? It's been so long, you must have thought I'd given up coffee! Hahahahahahahaha!!! As if that would happen... I must say that my guest today, fellow Austen Author   (and USA Today Bestselling Author - not too shabby!) Marilyn Brant has to be one of the most patient and understanding people I have ever known. You see, I invited her to stop by a month ago to tell you all about her exciting new Mirabelle Harbor series, and of course that's when my laptop decided all it wanted to do for me was show my desktop image. I mean, I love penguins, but I need a computer! So she is finally back for the first time in two years ! Then she told you all about her romantic mystery The Road to You .  She also joined me for coffee earlier that year to tell us about Pride, Prejudice, and the Perfect Match .   I just love the premise for her new novel, having the chance to meet your teenage idol once you're an adult.... (Of course,...
