| New Review for Call Me Barbarian! |
Wow, after all this time, Joyfully Reviewed has put out a review for Ellora's Cavemen: DREAMS OF THE OASIS 1.
My futuristic story Call Me Barbarian appears in this anthology. Here's what she thinks of my little tale:
"Imagine having not one but two men as your soulmates, and what makes it even sweeter is that they are twins – twice as yummy! This lustful tale is told through a first-person point-of-view, Cedilla's, and takes place during a time when all women were treated as men’s property and when barbarians were only tolerated as gladiators in the Empire society. The ménage a trios interaction between Cedilla, Asterix, and Apostoph was mega hot and erotically passionate. Although somewhat horrible, I really liked how Liddy Midnight concluded this story because it turned out that the Empire needed Cedilla more than they thought – regardless of her half-barbarian heritage."
Of the whole compilation, the reviewer says:
"This collection of Ellora’s Cavemen tales will satisfy any fantasy hunger as it has a variety of stories that range from the erotic paranormal to the naughty menage a trios. Enjoy!"
I love a good review, especailly when it's unexpected. Read the entire thing here.
Hugs,
Liddy |

Love Beneath the Harvest Moon by Adele Dubois
September is the traditional month of change and reorganization. It’s the time we clean up our physical, emotional, and spiritual clutter as we prepare for a new season. For many people September marks the true beginning of the New Year. Children return to school after a long summer break, vacations are over, and our households resume their normal rhythms. This is also a time when we welcome the fall harvest before the dark nights of winter arrive.
The Autumnal Equinox is still celebrated by many cultures worldwide and signals the beginning of autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. Derived from the Latin words aequus (equal) and nox (night), the equinox typically enters between September 22-24 when the sun appears to cross the celestial equator from north to south. This year, September 23, 2007, at 5:51 a.m. EDT marks the exact moment when fall arrives and the astrological calendar enters the sign of Libra. The days and nights will become nearly equal in length, creating balance, as daytime and night both have durations of approximately twelve hours.
The Harvest Moon is the name of the full moon arriving closest to the Autumnal Equinox. In two years out of every three the Harvest Moon rises in September instead of October. The Harvest Moon shines this year on September 26, 2007. No matter where you live in the Northern Hemisphere, the moon will look round and full as it rises in the east around sunset. Farmers will work well into the night to gather their crops as the bright light of the Harvest Moon fills the sky and shines down on the earth.
September also marks the lunar cycle when grapes are traditionally harvested, pressed, and stored to become wine. When the light of the full Harvest Moon, also called the Wine Moon or Fruit Moon, shines bright across half the world on September 26, snuggle close to the one you love and toast the new season with full-bodied glasses of wine or cups of cider. Who could ask for a more romantic setting than love, a good vintage, and a warm blanket spread beneath the glow of a full Harvest Moon?

| More Caterpiggles... |
Here are a couple of other pix. I just love watching these little guys grow!
This one's easy to spot, because I turned the plant so it's silhouetted against the shadows between the rocks. When they're small, it's a bit of a hunt to find them at all. (The best way is to look for their black droppings.) . . .
This one's on the stem, where I hope you can see it! . . . . . . . . . . , .
These are a lot bigger than that tiny hatchling I posted the other week. There are a few even bigger ones now, which I'll try to catch a glimpse of tomorrow and photograph for you. They're little eating machines, with nothing to do but eat and grow...the bigger ones are most likely the same ones in these pix.
In preparation for moving - getting a house spruced up to put on the market is a lot of work - some of the milkweed was moved to the side of the house. Curb appeal, you know! Ratty 'weeds' aren't on the list of what prospective buyers look for. These are the ones that popped up after the front garden was last weeded. I may move the smaller plants. When the ones out front are eaten up, I'll carry the caterpillars to the new location. I haven't seen any there yet.
Hugs,

| Be still, my heart! |
I did a bit of weeding this evening. I'm so glad I did!
 THE MONARCH BUTTERFLY CATERPILLARS ARE HERE!
Isn't this little one adorable? I was squishing aphids (to make sure the milkweed survives long enough for the caterpillars to eat it - they've got precedence in my gardens) and almost missed it.
This is the smallest one I've ever seen.
Tomorrow I'll post pix of the larger ones.
I wouldn't want to overload your senses. LOL
Hugs to everyone but that liar Ann,

| This just in! |
This just in...straight from the horses' mouths...so to speak. LOL
Ann Wesley Hardin luuuuurves French Poodles and has been known to steal Cris Anson's er, adult toy shaped remarkably like a banana.
Now, these were communicated to Your Humble Reporter in the same sentence by Ann herself, therefore I deduce a relationship.
Ann, darling, you'd better watch out - those PETA folks might be after you!
If she ever gets it back, I hope Cris can put her "appliance" in the washing machine. EW!
Hugs to all but that liar Ann,

| A fabulous time was had by all |
I realize it's been a while since I cavorted around eastern PA with my EC sisters and the gorgeous bus, but it did take me time to recover. Thus my tardy post of the TRUTH of what happened in Lancaster, Pottstown and Reading. (If I didn't cover it here, it's a scurrilous rumor. SCURRILOUS, I say!)
First of all, let me say that the hostesses (those wonderful ladies who manage, staff and hand-sell books at the various Borders and Borders Express locations) were the kindness personified. We never ran out of drinks or goodies and shared many a laugh, giggle or snicker with them all. Thank you so much, ladies, and I'm willing to sing at your stores any time.
The EC folks, Brenda and John, are also great fun and took good care of us. They had EC goodies for us to hand out and kept us in the spotlight by placing the attention-getting bus prominently in every parking lot. And when Jennifer Dunne whined about not having a nice EC leather portfolio, Brenda managed to produce one.
Of course, Jennifer promptly let her Peppermint Teenie Poppers melt all over the calculator. We all know Jennifer doesn't stoop to using a calculator, being a mathematician and all. Hmm...but I see here in my notes that simple arithmetic is beyond the four-hour orgasm girl. Does that mean we can't trust her timekeeping, either?
Let's see, what else did I learn about my sister EC authors? The truth, as recorded during the five book signings last weekend.
Cris Anson can't figure out how to cross the street. (Sounds like this limits her street-walking activities, doesn't it?)
Tara never listens to a thing I say. (Why should she be different? If everyone paid attention to my words of wisdom, I'd've long ago solved tribal strife, world hunger and cured the common cold.)
Oh, and pssst, keep this under your hat. Or elsewhere, but out of sight. Cris Anson is an anal freak AND she's always in the wrong place. She went through three pairs of panties during the signings. I have no idea whose they were, other than not mine. ('Nuff said. I ain't goin' there.)
And FINALLY, the ultimate truth about Ann Wesley Hardin. She's not only a viscous gossip, she's the founder of the Wandering Menstruals. I hear the WaMens uploaded an incredibly well-done "man-revenge" video to UTube but it was banned because UTube doesn't permit snuff . Those babes are tough when they're PMSing!
Oh, I almost forgot Lorie O'Clare. The poor darling was with us for only one signing and I hear she's recovering nicely. Get well soon!
Pictures to follow...yes, I documented some of the events.
Hugs to everyone but that liar Ann,
