F = FAIRIES

One of my many collections is of fairies. A corner of my family room is devoted to these fairies. The first picture is of my fairy fountain.




This one is my pirate fairy















I have to include one of my favorite fairies (not in my family room) but one who appeared at a writer's conference - Tristi Pinkston and one of my favorite authors James Dashner.

New Contest

As most of you know, I love contests. I'm going to tell you about one - although I hate to do it - because if you enter it then it takes a chance away from me.

It's a contest to kick off the release of "Secret Sisters," the first installment in, "The Secret Sisters Mysteries."

Ida Mae Babbitt, president of the Omni 2nd ward Relief Society, didn't mean to become a spy. But when visiting teaching stats are low and she learns that one family under her care is in financial trouble, she'll do whatever it takes to make sure they have what they need. If that includes planting surveillance cameras in their home and watching them from a parked car in the woods, well, isn't that what any caring Relief Society president would do?

I can hardly wait to read this book, even if I don't win it, I will buy it because I love the author Tristi Pinkston. I've read all her other books and enjoy all of them. I wanted to post a picture of the book, but I couldn't find one.

I'm A Winner Again

Wow - what a great way to start out the month of December. I already won a book from Heather Justesen, in the contest that I mentioned yesterday. It's really not to late for you to enter to win. I almost forgot to mention what I won - it is the book by Tristi Pinkston, Nothing to Regret.

Usually I don't like this month much because it's full of so many things to do. Besides my birthday, my son's birthday, my sister's birthday, my brother-in-law's birthday, there is Christmas (that's a good thing). With Christmas comes decorating, cooking, and lots of parties.

It's the one month that I don't really plan on getting much written. Instead I just plan on enjoying the festivities. Sad part is that several things come on the same day, and then I have to pick and choose where to spend my time. I already have to spread my self thin this coming Saturday.

Be sure to get your entries in for that contest.
