Svu

[sandyk]

Did anyone watch SVU tonight on TV? Oh my, I just really was shocked at the ending. I was reading a book and halfway listening. I looked up and my eyes just about bugged out. Probably one of the best endings of a story on TV that I have seen for awhile.

I am reading a book by Terry Goodking called The Law of Nines. It is a Sci-Fi novel. It is very good. Can't put it down. This weekend I finished Fireproof (one of the best books I have read lately). I have not seen the movie Fireproof but I think I will rent it now that I read it. I have a William Faulkner Short Story collection on my coffee table right now waiting for me to finish reading it. I don't like it much but will struggle thru because I need to read more classics.

I am going to read Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn later this month. Also the Wind and the Willows and the Old Man and the Sea. I am re-reading these books so that I can tell my grandsons about the stories. When we had our first home and we didn't have children, the neighbor boy used to come over when he saw me on our deck outside and say, "Miss Sandy will you tell me a story?" I would make up little stories for him. I would pick out a robin in the tree and make up something. I think that boy is now a man of 40.....lol...

Well, time for a glass of wine and some more reading. I got some nic stuff today so I am all set now. Thank you Rob and liscab for your concern.

So our Sandy is a bookworm, reading book is better than watching the news.

Sandy always keep your nic near you, even I you don't take it keep it near, it help you to know its there

True or false

yup liscab. I wrote a novel about 10 years ago about a woman who fell in love with a yournger man who was blind. I called it Blind Fire. I had an agent in New York but she just couldn't sell it to a publisher. My mom was so proud of me just to get an agent. It is sitting in the Den now on the lower shelf. I haven't read it in years. I was gonna trash it, but my son said that one day, my grandsons will be able to read it and he thought that would be a good thing.

I took my Grandson, Zach, who is 5 to the library near my log cabin and we spent like 2 hours in there. He loves books and his mouth was wide open and his eyes were wide open. He loved it. I got him an insect book and a bug book (he loves spiders), for Christmas. He carried them around with him all Christmas Eve. All they toys he got, he carried the books around. He is reading on his own now and he is in Kindergarten. I am very proud of him.

Yeah, I found out, not having the nic crutch around is not good. It is like you panic. I only had like 4 analogs. Not the end of the world. I will not touch them again.

never trash your memories or writing, you have family and they want to remeber you

I would pull it out, make one of the characters a vampire and resubmit it.

Only half joking on the vampire part. Seriously going back and doing some editing now that you've grown over the past decade and resubmitting it is good idea.

ok now I'll have to make SVU the first thing I watch tomorrow.

 

[sandyk]

Thy, make sure you watch it! Remember the BFos!

 

[sandyk]

ILL,

You are the 3rd person to tell me to re-write...........might just have to do that. Vampire books are selling right now....I am reading a Sci-Fi book right now about an alien....geez...but it is very good. Nah, sticking with the normal romance, murder book. Yeah, the husband gets murdered.

I threw an idea to my agent about a homeless family. She loved it and told me to write it but I was so depressed over the book rejection, I just gave up.
