Since we're talking about category romance this week, I'd like to mention one of my series...The Eden Empire. It starts and ends with Christmas books, and is all about two sisters fighting for the future of their family's legendary NYC department store. karenbooth.net/the-eden-emp...
A couple kissing in the snow. Book title is A Christmas Temptation. A couple about to kiss, sitting on a red couch. Book title is A Cinderella Seduction. A couple in a passionate embrace in an art gallery. Book title is A Bet with Benefits. A couple about to kiss in front of a romantic fire. Book title is A Christmas Rendezvous.

Fated Mates ADVOCATING for romance fiction where the heroines (and couples) are over the age of 40! PREACH!

I may get a mention. As does the wonderful @karenbbooth.bsky.social who, along with @maggiewells1.bsky.social started the 'Seasoned romance' FB group.

When starting Season 2 (or 3 or 4...) of an hour-long drama, I don't need the well-edited recap video. I need a slide presentation of each character, their name, and a dossier of important facts about them. Man, I struggled through Episode 1, Season 2 of The Diplomat!

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

Robert DeNiro held the elevator for my husband and I in the Tribeca Films building, we smiled at him, he smiled at us, and the three of us rode to the lobby in silence.

I once saw Eve Myles browsing the CD racks in HMV. There is literally no more to that story.

Random from my neighborhoods's Ring feed: guy posted that someone broke into his shed, wrote "Chainsaw man lives in your shed" on the wall, and left behind bolt cutters and a They Might Be Giants cassette. Disturbed former hipster? A sign of the end of days?

I'm here now, and probably just as despondent and pissed off as the rest of you, so I'm hoping I fit right in. (Left you-know-where a few months ago, but it took me a while to find my way here.)
