Go Disney!

Disney has announced the first black princess will star in "The Frog Princess", to be released in 2009. The setting, New Orleans :-)



And, to top it all off, Maddy will also be a part of the animated princess collection at the various theme parks and retail products.

Thursday 13 - the first!

The other day I saw a snip promoting the dvd release for the new Casino Royale and it had me thinking about all those leading men who, at some point in my lifetime, made my heart skip a beat, my breath catch in the back of my throat with an "oh my" hovering on my lips, or made me cry - the out loud, can't hold back the flood, kind. They are:

1. Cary Grant - To Catch a Thief - sigh, this man is the epitomee of a debonair gentleman, full of class, and even at a young age he made my heart beat faster.

2. David Craig - Casino Royale - I don't care that he's blond, he's rough around the edges, tough and sexy as heck.

3. Pierce Brosnan - Thomas Crown Affair - he was a good Bond, but I preferred him with a wicked side.

4. Colin Firth - Pride and Prejudice - oh man, the wet shirt scene says it all!

5. Denzel Washington - Glory - cried so hard when he is being whipped, the dignity and strength was right there, so was the determination to not be ground down.

6. Robert Redford - Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid - it was a tie between this one and the Rhinestone Cowboy, this one won out because he was bad without being evil :-)

7. Kevin Costner - Bull Durham - "I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days." Need I say more?

8. Harrison Ford - Star Wars - Hans Solo was sexy and wild, a rascal really and he made my young heart go pitter-pat.

9. Doug McClure - Gidget [he was Waikiki] - HA, Moondoggie was cute but when Waikiki shared her blanket at the beach party, well, enough said. On a side note, there was only one Gidget and that was Sandra Dee!

10. Clark Gable - Gone with the Wind - its that good bad thing again, gets me every time, but he get's me every time his daughter dies. Oh, and this is the first flick I found myself entranced by the clothes.

11. Oded Fehr - The Mummy - wasn't sure whether to trust him and that kept my eyes focused on him, lovely way to spend some time.

12. Timothy Hutton - Ordinary People - he played the surviving son so perfectly, you want to stand up and shake the mom and tell her to wake up, her son needs her.

13. George Clooney [just because I think the older he gets the better looking he becomes and I love the recent Oceans 11 and 12, as well as Syriana]

Hump Day Reflections!

A lovers kiss is one of the most intimate moment they will experience, allowing the participants to feel both full of power and extremely vulnerable.

Moist lips barely touch, rub, press against each other, testing the resiliency of the full, silken folds. After the first tentative forays against the other, the lovers quickly become eager, anxious, pushing to be even closer, to be one. Heated breath escapes on a gasp, a moan, a pant, only to be caught, in the back of the throat, on a hitch of rapidly growing need. The taste of the other is there on the supple folds, teasing the tongue to stretch out for a sample from the fount.

Love, passion, desire, need, lust, your heart and soul, all and more are shared with a single kiss. Temptation to achieve even greater heights than ever before linger, all while ensuring the lovers are blind to everything but each other.

Hmmm, the kiss, delicious, usually starts and ends it all.

What a week!

Unfortunately life has thrown the cutie and I not one but two serious curve balls at the same time, and we're trying to work with them both at once. What this meant for me was not one word was written last week. Nothing.

This was a first because, no matter what is happening around me, I'm usually able to carve out some time to spend on the current WIP, but not one word was typed. This week I'll figure out how to work around the two large lumps of disarray that has settled around us and make some progress on "My Angel".

Our household remains at peace...

At least for the moment because Man U and Boro tied on Saturday. Okay, they'll have to play again to settle it out for a place in the FA cup semi-finals, but for now the cutie is pleased, relatively speaking. If asked he will vociferously disagree with the need for the hand ball penalty, for Ronaldo [of all players] to take and make the goal, if none of this had happened, then Boro would have won!

Meanwhile my Man U heart silently says: Get over it...we're going all the way!

Let's Celebrate!

It's International Women's Day!

First Female as Acting Head of State: from December 1917 through March 1918, Yevheniya Bohdanivna Bosh, was Acting Head of Executive Power, Ukraine

First Female President: 1940-44, Khertek Amyrbitovna, was Head of State Khertek Anchimaa-Toka, People's Republic of Tannu Tuva

As of today, there are four reigning Queens/Empresses, six Governor Generals, five Chiefs of Governments of External Territories, and Moçambique, Germany, Jamaica, Latvia, Finland, The Philippines, Liberia, Chile, Switzerland, Israel, and up to yesterday, South Korea, all have a female President or Prime Minister!

Is the US ready for a female president?

Hump Day Reflections!

Where, oh where, have my imaginings gone? It's Wednesday, hump day, so let's talk about this!



An image speaks volumes and this one show one of man's most erotic places - leading right to his groin. This woman doesn't need to see everything, just a hint, and the muscle pointing down on either side is a natural path for a single finger to follow down...

Hmmm, I look a this picture and see a seduction scene...oh yes...I see it now. After having worked out, he's stripped and ready to shower. She comes in and doesn't stop moving forward until he's pressed up against a the tiled wall. Taking her fingers, she traces his collar bone, down over his pecs, circling, teasing, the nipples, before finally tracing the center line to his belly button. His breath catches in the back of his throat, he wants to close his eyes and just feel her silken softness float over his hard body, but he can't help it, he has to look down and watch her first fingers slide through his sweat into the muscle trail leading down...

Oh, yes, definitely a yummy pic.

Frostbitten!

Ahhh, I think I have frostbite!

Stupid me, went out to grab some sodas, hot chocolate and a few other provisions so I can enjoy my chat over on Love Romances and More cafe today and forgot to take my gloves. Why does it matter, its 12/F degrees out there!

Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Life has not been so kind the past couple of days so I'm hoping this cold blast will take all the bad karma away and leave us with some good.

2008 - Year of the Big O!

What? The Big O?

Have O-themes and words dancing in your head?

Well, here's your chance to give Phaze your O-name, what theme the stories should represent, and get exactly what you think readers, including yourself, are looking for.

De-li-cious!

The cutie outdid himself yesterday. I love watching the Oscars - okay, mainly for the fashion, rarely make it to the end of the show. Yesterday we went to run errands and hit a new shop in the mall, Dale and Thomas' Popcorn...yum! We brought back three - white chocolate and peanut butter, chocolate and caramel, and caramel - the first is my favorite. Chowing down on it for lunch...I'm sure its nurtrious :-)

So, now that the hoopla is finished, were there any movies I wished I'd seen and hadn't, yes, without a doubt. We seem to live in a dead zone for something that outside the blockbuster realm.

Because of the international feel, I did start to remember some of my old foriegn favorites and some of the smaller flicks. Have you seen any of these:

A Room with a View
Babette's Feast
Cat People [w/Simone Simon]
Gidget
My Beautiful Laundrette
My Left Foot
Red Shoes
Queen Margot
Trainspotting
Triplets of Belville
Just about everything from the Gong Li/Zhang Yimou relationship [Ju Dou, Raise the Red Lantern, The Story of Qui Ju - the latter is an absolute must see]

I've been tagged!

Oh boy, I've been tagged by the saucy erotic romance author, RaeLynn Blue, over on myspace, and thought I'd share the gory details over here as well. I’ve never done this before so let’s see how I do. Apparently I've got to tell you 10 things about myself and then tag another ten to do the same. So, here we go!

1. I love all the seasons but my favorite is summer…nice and toasty with the minimal amount of clothes required.

2. I’m a weeper - commercials, movies, books, and yes the news - if the cutie is nearby he whispers, “Humidity rising?” then takes hold of my hand.

3. I like white food junkie: Twinkies, mashed potatoes, corn, chicken, chips and chocolate [nope, not white but I like it no matter how it comes].

4. I was going to be a fashion designer, even went to school for it and then found out I couldn’t sew worth beans.

5. I like hats - big fabulous creations of artistic wonder - and baseball hats to keep the rain away instead of an umbrella.

6. I’m an organizational freak who sucks at cleaning house.

7. I grew up at the beach and still wear a bikini, having curves is nothing to be ashamed of.

8. According to the cutie and occasionally I agree, I sometimes dress like my mother and I know I sound like her at times too. It’s not so bad, she’s a pretty fabulous woman.

9. I just bought boys socks…they fit and were there.

10. I’m very lucky: I like where I’ve been and where I’m at, who I was and who I am, and I can’t wait to see what the future sends my way!

Okay, the next people I'd like to spill their guts are:

Kara Griffin Leigh Ellwood Louise Bohmer James Buchanan
Michelle McGriff Jude Mason Karen Erickson Michelle Pillow
Jaycee Clark Sherrill Quinn

Boots? Yup, today it's about boots!

Last monday we went away, a couple of different places were on the agenda and we decided to drive and enjoy the easy pace. First night, we had no hot water, second night the electricity was out for 16 hours before we decided to leave, third night was just right, only there was a fourth night because of road closures. We finally made it home a day later than we'd planned to a driveway covered in ice, 3 inches of the hard beast. Snowblower wouldn't do it, so we took a pic and shovels to it, even the 7 inch iceberg at the base and now, now I'm home and happy I took my boots with me.

Yup, I lived in these wonders all week - even out to dinner for Valentine's - and am eternally grateful for their rusted eyelets, salt stained, comfort.

Long live the boot that is big enough to wear two, and yes, at one point even three pairs of socks.

Dragon Lust by Tilly Greene is OUT!

That's right, Dragon Lust by Tilly Greene is now available at loveyoudivine

Blurb
Ryder Smythe and Taylor Andersen, homegrown boys now in the big city, want to start the weekend with a night of wicked indulgences.

Alice Jones comes in search of a way to release the tension of the week, only she finds so much more.

O'Reilly's is an average bar where people went to find their personal pleasures, no matter how odd or different they may sound and on one particular Friday night, a dragon reigns supreme.

Excerpt
It wouldn't have surprised anyone if they'd walked right out of a fashion advertisement in their faded t-shirts, well-worn button fly jeans, complete with holes and frayed edges, and sneakers. But she'd bet the house their normal clothing for work was suits, shirts and ties.

Without a doubt they'd look just as handsome in those fancier clothes as they did in these casual togs.

This bar was special, a place where no false promises were ever offered. She'd chosen to wear something that flagrantly showed the state of mind she was in. Tonight she was eager to please the right man, or men, and the condition of these twos cocks made it clear they'd come for more than a casual beer.

The discomfort in her knees and odd position of her arms refocused her attention on the man who held the key to her fulfillment. Her body hummed with excitement.

Yes, tonight would be a spectacular night.

Start your weekend right, head over to loveyoudivine and pick up a copy of Dragon Lust by Tilly Greene.

My oh my, where is my mind today!

Here

well, kind of but not quite...ummm...okay, let's just say I'm ready for the dragon's release tomorrow! In preparation, and because it's almost Valentine's day, loveyoudivine authors, including myself, will be playing over on their loop from 12-8:00pm est.

See you there, I'll be the one with the sexy dragon at my fingertips :-)

What Makes Me Laugh?

Consistently?

These do :-)

I'll be running a few errands then spending the day over on Love Romances and More Cafe...with some new excerpts to keep me warm. See you there.

Enjoy and have a good laugh today!

Tilly

Flippin' Frigid!

Yes, I'm talking weather and it's bloody cold here - Google weather is telling me its 14/F - and yet I just hung up from my sister who is feeling chilled at 58/F! Grrr!

I'm not that upset over the Bears loss but am over the dull commercials. The lions on the Taco Bell were great, laughed on those, and also thought all the coke ads were pretty good. Really liked the one for Black History Month - simple and powerful [and unfortunately couldn't find it on the net to watch again]. I don't remember seeing a Bud with clydesdales in it [other than the dog getting spots].

Time for the good news..."Ride 'em" has been submitted and now I'm working on Taming Marie Antoinette. Not much of a surprise it takes place in Paris. Yes, I actually did research while I was there :-).

The February Scorcher is OUT!

That's right, the Tilly Greene's monthly newsletter is out!  Head over and join either the yahoo or google group [no chat just the newsletter :-)] to check it out.  In January seven Tilly Greene tote bags  were given away and so far February seems to be going the same way!

Enjoy!

Oh my, the things you see...

The cutie and I recently took a trip. It was work but at the end we took a few days for ourselves and walked around the city. In this section [red light on one side of the street and tourist shops on the other] there is a pedestrian park to walk through down the center of a busy road so we chose that one instead of the bustling sidewalks. This souvenier shop had something more to offer than all the others...someone's panties drying on the top balcony!



And they weren't the sexy kind like you'd expect considering what was happening on the opposite side of the road, these were, well, shall we say, they offered the wearer plenty of coverage. It was a good laugh.
