This week, Sarah Hegger wants to know our guilty pleasures. Hope you hopped over from Carrie Elks blog.

The fifties have made me more feisty and diminished my tolerance of BS. On bad days, a certain brand of whiskey calms my beastly attitude triggered by day job and helps with the writing flow.

Another secret pleasure is a private Pinterest board more naughty than my Stealth Bods board and why it remains secret! It’s a visual mantra and bank of potential heroes.

For all my guilty love of techno gadgets, I still don’t have a smart phone. Besides hubs, who still has a flip phone, I’m the only one I know who still has a qwerty keyboard. Adding another $30 dollars a month to the bill for access to braggart social media during working hours seems excessive.

Candles are another indulgence. My favorite, Harvest Moonlight, has been decommissioned by Yankee, so each fall I order a couple from an independent seller. The sweet mysterious scent puts me in a writing mood and really should be considered a business expense along with my buddy, Jack Daniels.

Well, that all I have for today that printable. Let’s see what guilty pleasures Meggan Connors is willing to share.

FAN FICTION : Stories involving popular fictional characters that are written by fans and often posted on the Internet —called also fanfic. This week on Romance Writers Weekly, Jo Richardson wants to know what fandom do RWW authors have a thing for, and what would we write if so inclined. Hope you’ve visited Tracey Gee’s blog for her fandom likes and wished her a Happy Birthday!

While recently checking out fan fiction on the internet for this post, I found a site listing 15 fan fiction sites so the genre is thriving. Even more to my amazement Amazon introduced a fan fiction section called Kindle Worlds a couple of years ago. Authors may submit and receive payment for some fan fic stories. The giant entity works the deal with the copyright holder according to CNN’s 2013 article, Amazon’s “Kindle Worlds” lets fan fiction writers sell their stories.

If I chose to write fan fiction, I’d probably pick the Cinemax show, Strikeback. It’s about a couple of military bad-asses, Sargent Michael Stonebridge of British Section Twenty and the ever notorious former Delta bad boy, Damon Scott.

I’d make it a steamy action series entitled Blow Back!! LOL! To make the story more fun, I’d set it in the future where they could be intergalactic special ops teaming up with sexy alien females. For an opening scene…

“How’d we wind up playing security guard for the winged diva?” Scott cast a glance to the green fairy like songstress belting out a rock opera tune as she hovered over the stage on huge iridescent wings.

Stonebridge straightened his bow tie, grateful he and Scott were under cover. The guards standing out in front of the stage wore short jackets and jodhpur pants like riders would have worn on a fox hunt back home. Except they wouldn’t be in eye-popping pink and green. The whole show could have been out of the old Earth movie, Wizard of Oz. He nodded to Damon as they moved into position backstage. “And just think the diva fairy could pin you up against the wall with her ten foot wingspan.”

Damon laughed and pulled on his ear lobe, activating the implanted comms device. “Alien or not, I still get more tail than you my friend.”

Michale squinted. “Right, and tail is literal appendage in this space sector, buddy.”

Let’s we what Veronica Forand has for today’s Fan Fic day.
