Luna, cast your spell for me

For drugged with love’s anticipation

With the deepest blue of my wanting heart
And let your softest, feathered light
Stir the man of my dreams tonight

I remembered this when I missed the Harvest Moon last week… but the sky was still beautiful tonight.

Indie Author Dr. Meg Sorick!

I’d like to give a huge thank you to my friend Phil Taylor for featuring me today on his blog. Phil is a fellow author and blogger with a great sense of humor and a wildly entertaining blog.

Please check out his blog if you are not already following along.

When she’s not straightening out her characters lives on the pages of her books, she’s straightening out spines in her office. When she’s not doing either of those things, she’s commenting on my blog. Over the past year and a half, since she and I started following each other, I don’t think I’ve written a blog post she hasn’t commented on. Because of that, I am far overdue in featuring her here on my blog.

Here’a synopsis or her Buck’s County series: What DO I write about? Ordinary people with families, people who fall in love and sometimes find themselves in outrageous circumstances. Add some suspense, humor, family dynamics and good conversation and voila! These ideas have coalesced into a series of romantic suspense novels set in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where I…
