MY FIFTEEN MINUTES OF FAME and weekly update #mullettoss #florabama

Mullet Toss celebrates a landscape and culture in flux (WUWF by T S Strickland).

Hi Everyone. This is Mullet Toss weekend, but I will not be attending. What used to be a party of twenty or more of our family, friends and friends of our friends, The Florabama Open (our personal golfing event) has petered out. It lasted for more than twenty years, so I think it had a good run. My hubby, Eric, and I still celebrate it and are thinking of getting a room next year, even if no one else wants to come. Rooms are super expensive, but, even though we live close, the traffic and parking are outrageous, so the only way we do it is to get a room at the Phoenix Ten, a condo complex right beside the Florabama, home of the Mullet Toss.

I know I said I was going to be blogging more, but the best laid plans….This week I am holding myself to it. I have numerous reviews waiting to be written, so keep your eyes open. I hope you have a great week and I’ll be talking at ya.

How to enter: Visit Angel’s Book Nook & Books of My Heart.

There is never enough time to read all the books I want to read. I would need to be immortal and I still don’t think I could read them all. I am determined to spread out my reading this year, between my TBR, review books and library books…and other books that happen to be laying around, either on a shelf, table, hearth, or the ones that haven’t made it to my TBR yet. My goal is, at least, twelve. That will average one a month.

To see all my library books, enter Library in the search bar or in the categories drop down menu. Happy reading.

American Magic finds a home in Pensacola Florida #americanmagic #americascup

Posted on by

Mr Wonderful took this photo of American Magic off the TV today.

American Magic is making it’s home here in Pensacola, Florida. It was so cool seeing Pensacola on the sail, garnering international attention for out city. Mr Wonderful and I have spent numerous days at the port watching them.

They will be located at Warehouse 10, with an $8.3 million dollar grant to beautify the place. They’ll add an addition to the warehouse, a dock and boat ramp and 170 jobs to the city.

The 37th America’s Cup Preliminary Regatta in Vilanova i la Geltrú, Spain started out with postponements because of weather and the conditions never cooperated. American Magic won the first even of the 2024 America’s Cup season today. Only two races were held because of light and unpredictable winds. I think that says a lot about American Magic and I look forward to good things coming their way.

That means we have our eye on the prize for next year’s America’s Cup.

Do you watch?

The Highly Anticipated Angel Of Ashes And Dust by D H Nevins Is Here @dhnevins

Posted on by

The highly anticipated release of Angel of Ashes and Dust, Book III of the Wormwood Trilogy is up for preorder! As you can see, the cover will be revealed soon, but if you want to get a jump on the price, it is up for a special preorder price of .99 for three days only, so get it now, and it will automatically be delivered to your ereader upon release.

The end of her people and the death of a planet is looming over her. Kali Michaels must choose between the illusion of safety and the danger of her own power in this anticipated and heart-stopping finale to The Wormwood Trilogy.

Kali has come to fear her abilities because she knows they can be used against her. In an effort to protect those she cares about, she is determined to let the power of her Shadow lie dormant, despite the dangers rising up around her.

Now, tormented by an unstoppable enemy, she and Tiamat Wormwood must try to shield and lead others while doing the impossible—survive in a dying land.

But how can she partner with Tiamat, when her proximity could kill him?

And how can Tiamat be trusted to save a planet, if he is the one who shattered it in the first place?

Little do they know that sometimes, for new beginnings, that which they love must first be destroyed.

*Please note: The title for this book has changed from “And from the Shadow, Light” to “ANGEL OF ASHES AND DUST”

Warning: There are reports of readers flinging their devices (one reader allegedly threw her Kindle three times) and ignoring their lives while reading Wormwood. The author does not assume responsibility for such awesomely reactive responses.
