Merry "Smootch!" Day to You!

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you!
Aside from the commercial "gooey push" for the occasion I prefer to look at the day as a time to reflect on those who found their way into my heart over the last year.
As you might expect, it is much easier to put my feelings down in words than to vocalize them.
Two individuals in particular were recently able to open my soul again in ways I never thought possible!
One was my daughter and the other- a chance encounter.
Sure, if you equate Valentines Day with Christmas, there are many great people in my life to think about but only the two who have given me the greatest gift of all.
Now, don't get me wrong.  Stuffing all those cards in envelopes and exchanging flowers and candy is neat and cool but the special valentines go out with a real heart.
On this Valentines Day I hope you have enough "heart" to go around!!!!
Merry "Smootch Day" to all of you!!!!!

"Two Spirit Ranch"

I have my copy of the new trans-romance novel "Two Spirit Ranch" by Jaime Stryker.
The difference with Jamie's novel is it's aimed at a mainstream audience.
In my past I have read "transgender fiction". Most of what I have seen or read is aimed more at a erotic/sexual reader-not a romantic one.
I am going to take advantage of our snowy weather coming up this week and get romantic with the book!
In the meantime you can follow the link above to the "Amazon" site above or take a look below.

Book Description

Publication Date: January 18, 2012

In this groundbreaking romance novel, Terri Lawson, an alluring young attorney, has it all. She’s on the fast-track at her firm, widely recognized for her pro bono work, and has a handsome suitor, who she’s sure has marriage on his mind. But when her boyfriend abruptly calls off their relationship and her favorite uncle passes away, she suddenly find herself losing all that was important to her. Not sure where to turn next, Terri heads off for a trip to small town Clearview, Montana to explore the sprawling ranch her uncle left her. It’s there that Terri while speeding down the highway has a run in with the ruggedly handsome sheriff, Jake Collins. As the two find their mutual attraction too strong to deny, Terri, who had only planned to be in town a few days, finds herself wondering if she can risk opening her heart again and sharing a secret from her past with Jake. ..Terri was once Terrence. Debut novelist Jaime Stryker presents not only a romance with a transgendered heroine but a tale of true love and acceptance.

Blog Stuff

Just some quick "house cleaning" updates here in the Condo to pass along.

First. Thanks to all of you for passing the 180,000 hit mark here on the blog.
While I know the number is not that huge on the mind boggling world wide universe busting web- it is HUGE to me!!!!

While we are the subject of numbers, we have passed the 800 post mark here! That's a lot of clutter!
 On a smaller scale, I redid the "contact" section of the blog which will hopefully clarify and update contact options with me
On a bigger scale I'm trying to filter more pictures from the front page of the blog to the "Gallery" Room.
I'm also thinking of moving all video's into a new "Home Entertainment Room".

Finally, I received a copy of the new mainstream transsexual romance novel which I should start reading this week. Of course I will pass along my totally unprofessional writer's opinion!
My own book has now reached the 35,000 word mark and has a final structure and I am very enthused about the whole project's progress since the first of the year.

Once again I would like to thank all of you for stopping by!!!!!!
