Let the Holiday Parties Begin!

Here we are. The first weekend in Saturday, so you know what that means. The start of the holiday party season. If you're like me, you're already booked from now until New Year's.

On this day I am gathering with my fellow chapter members of the Greater Seattle RWA for some food and festivities. We celebrate the accomplishments we made during the year with roses going to those who have sold or released a book, reward those who have met the most goals, and announce who will head the next year's board.

The main event is the white elephant gift exchange. For us, it's all about the wrapping. You won't know what's inside until all of the exchanges and steals have been made, and that's what makes it interesting. I love seeing how creative everyone is with their wrapping. The gift may be wrapped extravagantly with lots of ribbons, or as simple as a gift card tucked into an old Harlequin. Then there's Christa McHugh who one year presented Bondage Barbie. Yes, it was as spectacular as it sounds.

As for me, I've wrapped gifts in gingerbread (yes, I made a huge box out of gingerbread) and rice crispy treats. A few years ago I began the men series. First was the collage of superheroes, then last year were men wearing only Santa hats. Word of warning- make sure the room is free of children before googling "naked Christmas men." I know that should be obvious, but really, it's as racy as you think.

This year I'm continuing the theme of handsome men, and you all get to be the first to see my handiwork. Ta-da!

Oh yes, All six sides are covered in lovely photos of men in kilts. I wish this wrapping paper really existed. I know the men in my family would be ecstatic to receive a gift from me wrapped in all of this gorgeousness. :)

So where ever your holiday plans take you, be happy, be merry, and think sexy thoughts.

Till next time!

Happy Halloween!

Every year, Halloween kind of takes me by surprise. I'm not sure why. I know it's there. It's not like Easter. It doesn't move around on the calendar. But, still, it kind of comes out of nowhere. This year is no exception. Would you think I'm the world's worst mother if I tell you we don't have costumes for our kids yet? We don't. We're going to go get them tonight, however. I know, I know, that's really waiting for the last minute.

This comes as even more of a surprise to me because of how much I love Halloween. It's the one holiday that's all about candy, dressing up, and having fun. I can't think of another holiday that's more of a party than Halloween. Thanksgiving is all about food. Christmas is all about gifts (even in the religious terms, Jesus was a gift to us). Easter is all about family and redemption. They're all fun, but none are actually built around having fun.

So, this year for Halloween, I've decided I'm going to go all out for fun. Kind of my way of saying sorry to the holiday for pushing it off to the last minute. I'm going to go to my friend's house for pizza, take the kiddos trick or treating, and then (when everybody's gone off to sleep) I'm going to stay up and read an erotic horror! Because really, does it get any more fun than sexy-scary? There are a ton of them out there to pick from as well. I went to the Ellora Cave's Shivers page and found one that looks good....

Here's the blurb that sold me:

“He who makes wishes of the damned must accept the consequences of releasing them.”

Returning home from the Great War, Graham longs for something he fears he no longer deserves—Anna, the love he left behind three years ago. When a mysterious old woman begs him to retrieve a trinket, then disappears, Graham is compelled to rub the tinderbox and make a wish. He wishes to have Anna by his side…and she suddenly appears! They want the night to explore and pleasure each other.

But the tinderbox’s black magic is powerful and brings a price—a horde of walking corpses that will stop at nothing to sate their craving for flesh.

Additional wishes can’t drive the ravenous dead back into their graves. They only succeed in raising an army of zombies that will destroy everyone in their path—starting with Graham and Anna.
