I
read the Life Changing Magic of Tidying when I was in Italy (because seeing a
gorgeous country is overrated, amirite?) and then when I got home after not
getting any sleep for about twenty-five hours I started tidying immediately.
By
the next day I'd thrown out bags of garbage I'd been keeping for almost two
decades. By the next weekend my room, kitchen, bathroom and living room were
transformed because of what I threw away.
Now if only I could convince my
daughters to tidy too...
The Smartest Girl In The Room

Montana can sense danger, but can she find it in time...
by
Lynn Thompson
If Montana had known what she would be confronting that night, she never would have sedated Max.
Lottery winner and venture capitalist Montana Dayton is on vacation, sorely needing a break from her business. She purposely had a house built deep in the mountains, away from civilization in hopes to spend the winter alone with her dog Killer.
Unfortunately, the universe is conspiring against her. Montana’s getting creepy feelings from something or someone on her property and Rose, her neighbor, is bringing new “friends” into her life.
If that wasn’t enough to ruin Montana’s vacation, the dangerously attractive Max surely would! Max has the uncanny ability to show up when he’s not wanted. What Montana doesn’t realize is Max knows what’s out in the woods and it’s his job to find it.
Max knows Montana can sense it even though she cannot see it and has decided that she needs to be protected from the unseen danger, but who will protect Montana from Max?
Many years ago
when I was living in France I met a nice young man who invited me out the
following evening. Now, bear in mind that I'm not good with faces and it was
dark... a car pulled up and I jumped in only to find it was a total stranger.
He was puzzled to say the least by this strange English girl who had appeared
from nowhere but kindly offered to drive me to wherever I was going.
If this
were a novel we'd have driven off into the sunset but I was so flummoxed and
apologised profusely in bad French before jumping out of the car and going
home.
I never did find out if the original date ever turned up but I suspect
not!!!

That’s what Lauda Lead Horn wailed when she first saw the tribe’s new savior. OK, so his horn was not metal... and he did not have a magic power... and he was really a puny little runt. But doomed?
Were things really that bad? Well, things were pretty bad in the land of MarBryn. Magh, an evil sorcerer utilized unicorn horns and hooves to create his magical potions and spells and to increase his power and to conquer everyone in his path.
All of the unicorns from the Tribe of the Metal Horn were now gone... except for twelve survivors.
Before the blue unicorn was born, Numen told Alumna, the aluminum-horned oracle, that he had a plan to bring the tribe back home to Unimaise. His prophecy was, “Only the blue unicorn can join with the Moon-Star. Until then, no new unicorns will be born.”
Blue was the last unicorn born. Twenty years later, his horn was still covered with a plain blue colored hide. There was not a glint of metal to be seen on it or his hooves. And he still didn’t have any magic. But he was no longer scrawny and he had his wits.
Although no one else in the tribe thought he had a chance, Blue felt ready to make Magh pay for his evil deeds. And he went off to do it alone.
That was Blue’s first mistake.
If the entire tribe was not standing horn-tip to horn-tip at the proper time and in the exact place to help usher the Moon-Star Spirit into Blue’s horn, he would die.
Then, the rest of the tribe would really be doomed.
Readers will follow along two journey paths in this book. Blue is joined in his travels by his mentor Gaiso, the Stag and his friend, Girasol the Firebird as they try to find their way across a danger-filled MarBryn to Muzika Woods. The rest of Blue’s tribe is forced to follow another route due to Nix Nickle Horn’s unfortunate incident with a Manticore. Nix, the great unicorn defender must safely lead the way for Ghel, the Golden-Horned unicorn; Silubhra Silver Horn; Cornum the Brass-Horned unicorn; Steel Horned Style; Cuprum the Copper-Horned unicorn; Tin-Horned Tinam; Dr. Zinko; Iown the Iron-Horned unicorn and the others in an action packed adventure to their destination in Muzika Woods. Both journey paths converge there in the Nebulium Circle.

'I have a dreadful
confession of which I am ashamed of now due to possible later ramifications...
When I was young and shameless, working for a large
travel company, there was one male who preyed on women for one night sex
stands. We girls were heartily sick of him despite his good looks and charming
lies...worse of all he was married.
At one work do it was my turn to catch his eye. I let him
smooch over me on the dance floor, and without him knowing I planted a perfect deep
red rosebud lipstick kiss on his pristine dress shirt collar.
When he was told
by a friend later he went berserk and left the dinner dance. I felt satisfied
until later when I wondered about his wife and how she'd discover it. I only hope he changed his pathetic, horrible ways.'
