while listening to beautiful music, (this happens to be one of my most favorite pieces of music and one of my most favorite movies, A.I. . This was part of Spain’s music for the fireworks display. Click on the music link above to hear another favorite piece of music of mine that was also part of the display! And yes, you have seen the movie that made this piece of music famous — again. Nice pick for trailer music!)

Said the Youngling to Me_Hey Mom we are roasting like a couple of chickens right?
— and let me tell you, Vancouver could be renamed Hades if it wasn’t so much fun — and visited the many spray and splash parks in Vancouver.
and tried to enjoy the now and quiet my busy, frazzled mind.
This is not a good look.
And now I am back.
Happiness is writing and it is who I am.
I hope you had a wonderful time while I was away, and if you haven’t manged to take a break, try and take one — even if it is a wee one — I know you deserve it!
They say a writer is tortured when they are not writing. I believe that to be true. That being said, more writing is coming and very soon. I have a very cool interview with Daniel Henshaw arriving very, very soon. Also, there will be some changes happening with The Scribe’s Desk. Not too sure yet exactly what or how, but rest assured, change is inevitable!
Also, exciting news on an upcoming book release! I am very stoked about that one!
The world’s attention is focused on the horribly, devastating earthquake in Haiti. Please don’t forget to donate, and there are many reputable organizations to send help through like the Red Cross. George Clooney is having a telethon to raise money to help the people of Haiti aptly named Hope For Haiti. Bono, Justin Timberlake, Sting, Christina Aguilera, and Alicia Keys are some of the names that will be performing at this worldwide concert event.
Wyclef Jean
Wyclef Jean will be cohosting this event and the goal is to reassure Haiti that the whole world is paying attention to their dire need. With almost 40 stars rumored to be participating, I’m sure that a lot of people will pay attention. Remember every dollar counts, so give anything you can. Tune in Friday, January 22 at 8pm EST on MTV, CNN, NBC, HBO, ABC, CBS, FOX, BET, CW, VH1, CMT as well as internationally.
I want to wish all of you fab readers a joyously prosperous New Year! Thanks for reading and I look forward to more writing and more of your welcome comments in 2010! Here’s to more great movies, more great reading and more great entertainment! Make 2010 the year of doing all the things you’ve ever dreamed of doing!
~P.S.~ My favorite movie of the year was Avatar. What was yours? Can’t wait for the sequel. Can you?

Oh BOO! It has come to my attention that pirates have been frequenting my site, which has forced me to declare, “No Pirates Allowed!” I’ve had to remove some pics from my posts, which diminshes some of the dazzle, I am most sorry to say; but you can find the photos at the Official Websites they origninated from.
In movies and books and history, the flag of the pirate —the Jolly Roger— seems romantic. In real life, pirates still have the power to instill dread and woe in the hearts of wayfarers on the seas, and so it would appear, in cyberspace!
