By Jeri Westerson
Okay, so here’s a public confession: I am obsessed with knights. Yes, even chess pieces, but I am mainly obsessed with the kind that involves a man in armor. Oh my. Some women love a man in uniform, but I love them in steel.
I had the good fortune to see some knights in [...]
Happy Friday
Continuing my top ten list, as you know I wrote why I became a writer. The following is the top 6 reasons on why aspiring authors give up on writing.
10) I have nothing to write about.
9) I was terrible in English in Highschool
My friends and family will laugh at me if I tell them [...]
The British Are Coming!
I want to thank Patti Shenberger for agreeing to be be our guest blogger this Thursday! Without further ado…here’s Patti!
A big thanks to the Seven Wicked Writers for asking me to guest blog today. It is a pleasure to be in such prolific company.
This past week I bit the bullet and made [...]
Goodbye Natasha
While I don’t profess to know how her loved ones feel, I think I feel Natasha Richardson’s death a little more than some though I didn’t know her. I suppose it’s because we were born in the same year and the news of her death changes my perspective. It hits a little close to home, [...]
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Ah, St. Patty’s Day. A time where we all wear green and make merry. Even if you aren’t Irish. I decided to celebrate with all you 7WW fans by sharing some great YouTube videos. I would have got you all green beer, but I ran out of food coloring.
This first one is a little [...]
Going Zen ~ Moments
Going Zen ~ moments
Our life is momentary, and,
at the same time, each moment
includes its own past and future.
in this way, our momentary
and eternal life will continue.
This is how we actually live our

everyday life, and how we have
freedom from difficulties.

The state’s governor Jon Corzine proposes to ban the Brazilian bikini wax and the women Jenna knows are hopping mad.

Objectives
By Jeri Westerson
So here I am guest blogging on my first romance writer’s blog. I’m looking at the sexy images here and thinking, Oh yeah!
I guess I’m a bit of a sexist, objectifying men. Of course, men have been guilty of objectifying women for centuries. I suppose it’s our turn for a change. My [...]
To twitter or not to twitter
Okay, maybe I am falling behind in technology which is reaching the Jetson’s age sans back packs and traveling space ships, but what in the heck is a twitter.
Also can somebody tell me what a myface is. (I think that is what it is called.) Is it like my space and what is the difference [...]
The Paintings
When I was in Honolulu over Christmas, a friend of a friend emailed me. I don’t want to use his real name and embarrass him, so let’s just call him Joe.
Anyway, Joe emailed me, saying he was excited that his paintings had been snapped up by a Lahaina art gallery in Maui and did I [...]
