If It's Easy, a short story by my longtime pal, Carolyn McBride. (Click on her name to go to her blog.) You can also visit her Amazon Author's page --> Here, and her Facebook author's page is Here. *Carolyn was kind enough to share an author's copy with me but all opinions are my own, as anyone who knows me would know.
This is the tale of Coriander Wolf, a lonely author with a flavorsome name and a cynical view of romance. Beginning with the prophetic announcement from a djinn trapped in her computer, and continuing on to a meeting with an exotically beautiful stranger, Cori is about to learn more about the universe(s) and all they contain than she could ever have imagined... One suspects that her adventures will not end with this one short tale and that is definitely a good thing.
Carolyn and her wife, Betty, live in Southern Ontario, where Carolyn continues her tradition of writing strong lesbian protagonists and Betty keeps her in line!
Now for a few photos!
A lovely, celebratory bowl of succulent mussels. Yup, I got the job! Have to wait to start until they get the results of (standard procedure) obligatory urine test and I-9. For those not from the States, the I-9 is to determine if one is eligible to work in the US. It takes a while and I'm not inclined toward patience just now; despite having been sent (before I'd even arrived home) an email stating my pay rate, etc...
We had rain and storms most of the day yesterday, the sky boasted some unusual colors as the sun was setting; looking straight up:
And to the right...
This next one, however, looks positively sulphurous.
Thought I'd share an earworm with you in farewell. You're welcome!
Congratulations. I'm very pleased for you. What better way to celebrate than with mussels.
ReplyDeleteThanks! The mussels were scrumptious.
DeleteCongratulations to Carolyn. And happy dances on the job front. Very, very happy dances.

I'm dancing right along with you! The skies were rather spectacular, weren't they.
DeleteSuper contrats, and thanks for all the rain you sent along.
ReplyDeleteWe have rain almost daily here; you can have more if you like.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the job, I hope it is a happy job.
It should be, River. Thank you.
DeleteCongratulations on your job...that is just wonderful! Go get 'em, girl! :)
ReplyDeleteI loved that movie. I must watch it again. It was only on TV (again) a couple of weeks ago, but I didn't get to watch or record it, unfortunately.
Again...all the best. :)
Thank you so much Lee.
