I'm a ghostwriter and book editor - there are a lot of amazing and inspirational stories that deserve and need to be told... so I help shape and polish the writing first!

I'm a mom of two teenagers and the wife of an amazing man and, at heart, a loner who doesn't like to be alone. Some days, I want to jump on the bed and laugh joyously and, other times, I can barely suppress the temptation to crawl under the bed and hide from the world. Bi-polar? Nope... just a girl!...

BLOGGER CHALLENGE!

OK ALL YOU BLOGGERS – CHALLENGE TIME!

Thanks to an unintentional nudge from Ms. Sarah, I am hereby implementing Fiction Fridays! You can JOIN ME - or simply wait in bated suspense until the next week to see what will happen next in the lives of whatever characters unfold in my first Trashy Novel (and those of whoever decides to join in).

Rules? We don’t need no stinkin’ rules… (but here they are):

Each Friday, we will introduce a new chapter, following guidelines set out by Ms. Sarah in her Thursday blog (http://skirt.com/node/21012).

Characters must include:

• Feisty, small & dark-haired, big-green-eyed heroine
• Blonde nemesis or sidekick
• Tall, blonde, broad-shouldered hero with strongly muscled forearms, strong thighs and appealingly physical hobby
• Either hero or heroine is blue blood
• Dark, shameful secret in past of hero or heroine
• Graceful, small-waisted women with small wrists, hands and feet, as well as small, firm round breasts (bigger for the vixens), and rounded, lean hips
• Virginal heroine
• Valiant but experienced hero (sometimes a rake, but always eventually a gentleman)
• Rippable bodices
• Aching loins
• Throbbing body parts
• Lust

OK, so we can either take turns writing a chapter apiece, letting it unfold through many different voices, or we can all write stories, one chapter at a time, and VOILA have our own, tongue-in-cheek books! (Well, I hope that’s where your tongue is! We’re posting on the World Wide Web, so no X-rated stuff, ladies and gents. Ha)   P.S. Mine will likely be tamer than most, because I would only want to write something my daughter could read… and, hey, I’m convinced ladies of faith want love, too…

Lemme know what you think, because next Friday… WE BEGIN!

(Look out NYT Bestseller Lists… here we come!)
