Day 3: A Book I Love


Today is day 3 of the 30 and it’s a book I love.

Hmm, I’m going with my books, available from Redmund Productions. Just look for the byline “Laurie Childree.” It’s on more than two books there, the Flash in the Pan series if filled with authors.

OK done patting myself on the back, for now. Seriously narrowing it down to one book isn’t easy at all. So I decided to go with what I don’t love in a book.

Complications. No not complicated characters, but situations that you cannot figure out no matter how many clues and the resolution gives you a WTF moment.

I don’t want to need a map for anything other than a geographical location that I have never seen. I do not want a map to follow the story just to know who everyone is and what in the heavens they are talking about.

What do you love/hate about the books you read?

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.

Flash in the Pan Playing Along Still

The pages were bent and ragged from years of use, covers worn out from hands rubbing over them. There were bowls everywhere, the oven was still hot. She tasted it again, something wasn’t right. It was sweet, tangy but not right. What was missing? She scanned the room again to see. Onions maybe? No, but what could it be? She hit her head on the cabinet. A pepper that was it!
