My Muse's Musings

Happy Fourth of July!!! I know we're not there yet, but I thought I'd post a couple of recipes that I've done just recently I thought everyone would enjoy.  And they're totally non-fussing recipes. And since it's hotter than HADES, these are cool recipes that won't heat up your house. I love to marinate everything so I use pineapple juice to marinate meat a lot and to cook with. I keep the little 6 oz can's on hand. My marinade is: 1 6oz. can pineapple juice 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 tsp garlic salt 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce Pour about 1/4 cup of this marinade into a small bowl and reserve it for your vegetables I love to fancy up food and make it look pretty and kebabs are pretty to look at.  I cut either pork or chicken in 1 inch cubes and let it sit in the marinade over night. Save it you're going to need it. Now using wooden skewers or metal ones, it's up to you. Put the cubed meat onto the skewers and rest them back into the marinade. ...

I first met Hayden Braeburn when I was invited to participate in a live chat on another blog  Bitch Can Write a Book . I did a live chat with them and enjoyed it so much. Part of the reason it went so well and I had such a good time was the ladies there were fantastically supportive. And Hayden was one of those ladies. At the time I didn't know she was a writer or that she lives in Kentucky. So, imagine my surprise when someone else on our Kentucky Indie Writers group asked me to send her an invitation to join us. I was thrilled to invite her to our group. I recently read Hayden's first book DANCE WITH ME . It's the first book of a series titled the Everett's of Tyler series. I'll be doing a review of it next week on My Muse's Musings and I'll be sending an announcement out on Facebook and Twitter, so be sure to return next week to read it. I guess you've guessed since I'm having her on my blog this week, I thought it was great.  Cha...

Okay. Devon Matthews tagged me on the 777 Challenge and I'm posting my 7 lines from my 7th page of Breaking Through.  Now I'm off to tag 7 people to do the same. Derrick pressed a finger to his lips and rested his ear against the door listening. He gave the all clear and signaled for him to hurry. Brett nodded, thrust his pistol into its holster, and turned back to the task of arming the charge. He checked his watch, his finger reached toward the timer. Sensing a movement to his right, his attention jerked upward. A gunstock hit the side of his head with the force of a baseball bat, tearing the NVG’s from his face and slamming his head sideways. Instant blackness crashed over him. Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!! Teresa J. Reasor

 I'M SO PROUD TO BE THE FIRST STOP OF KALLYPSO MASTER'S BLOG TOUR AND TO INTRODUCE HER LATEST RELEASE (COMING SOON) NOBODY'S PERFECT. KALLY'S BLOG HOP I'm an eclectic reader. I'll read any kind of fiction, non-fiction, history, biographies, you name it. But my first love is romance,  military romance, historical romance, contemporary romance, paranormal romance, erotic romance and romantic suspense. Actually any kind of romance. The more conflict in a story, the more I love it. And Kallypso Masters can pour on the conflict. And I love it.  Her books are also BDSM erotica. I don't read erotica a lot. But I have a few favorites in the genre, Cheryl Norman, Jennifer Madden, Mia Jae, and recently I've added Kallypso (Kally) Masters to my list. Hers are my first sojourn into BDSM and they are totally different than I expected. I really love her heroes (OH MY) and her story lines.  Her female characters are fighting through things just as fer...

 In preparation for the start of her blog tour tomorrow I thought I'd post Kally's interview today so you could get to know her, and a little about her characters before the big kick off. Be sure to come back tomorrow and join us for the big kick off. There'll be a drawing for a $10 gift card and you can put your name in for the July 1st drawing for a $200 gift card.  Tell us what inspired your story. As an incest and child sexual abuse survivor myself, I have found that Romance novels helped me recover and to be able to go on to a happy marriage of 29 years with my own hero. But sometimes the books just glossed over the traumatic effects such abuse can have on a couple's sexual relationship and the ability to trust someone again in such an intimate way. Flashbacks, triggers, it's like a minefield for the partner, as well. I wanted to tell the story in more realistic terms. As I write this, very close to completion of the book, I can't tel...

I've invited Donna McDonald to  join me on my blog this week. Donna writes fun romances about older characters. What I've loved about each of  Donna's books is that they've shown how characters who are my age still have a libido, still enjoy having sex, and are still out there looking for love. And they're still working through things trying to do it right.   And though this blog will be dedicated to her newest release. I wanted the readers to be aware that she has several series out there.    Her Never Too Late Series encompasses: Dating a Cougar   Book 1 Dating Dr. Notorious   Book 2 Dating A Saint Book 3 Dating A Metro Man Book 4 Dating A Silver Fox  Book 5 will be out in July She Also has a an Art Of Love Series Carved In Stone Book 1 Created In Fire  Book 2 Captured In Ink  Book 3 Commissioned in White Book 4 I know you're going to enjoy her interview and the excerpt of ...
