Coming Undone
Harlequin Blaze
April 2007

"[Tyler's] straight forward, dead-on writing style invites us to get hot and happy and bowled over by love right along with Carly and Hunt. Which makes being there when they do come undone one of the best things about the novel — next to just how great a romance it is." -Michelle Buonofiglio, Romance: Buy The Book

"With smooth writing and a fast pace, RISKING IT ALL pushes all the right buttons. From the detailed characterization, realistic dialogue, and passionate romance to the heartwarming conclusion, romance fans are going to love RISKING IT ALL." -Terrie Figueroa, Romance Reviews Today

“On a similar note, while you're free to think whatever you like about my life and death, if you think I wasted my life, I'll tell you you're wrong. We're all going to die of something. I died doing a job I loved. When your time comes, I hope you are as fortunate as I was.”
-Andrew Olmsted, US Solider, killed in Iraq on January 3rd, 2008 – words from his final blog, written to be put up in the event of his death. (www.andrewolmsted.com

“Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it’s cracked up to be. That’s why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don’t risk everything, you risk even more.”
– Erica Jong

Rock of Love…or, my eyes bled but I couldn’t stop watching…

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Okay, who watched the horror show last night? Come on, fess up - I know there are more of you out there then just me and Angie-la and Jill.
Frenchie woman stripping was just so frightening that I could only watch from between my fingers and even that didn’t provide enough coverage. […]

TV trainwrecks

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

Anyone watching the hot mess (new favorite phrase) that is the 2nd season of Rock of Love? OMG, I can’t believe how freakin’ bad it is…and yet, I cannot stop watching it. Like, there are times I catch myself watching from behind my hands because I just cannot believe the horror of the […]

new fall show

Monday, July 2nd, 2007

The Singing Bee looks like it could have the potential to be hysterical - the motto is, you don’t have to sing it well, you just have to sing it right…
I have a few old favorites that I’ve been singing wrong over the years - I’m sure there are many, many more, but these always […]

summer TV

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

So I’m starting to rack up some new shows for the summer season, and even though I’m deeply disappointed that Rock Star will not be returning, there are some other shows to fill the void:
Army Wives - I caught the season premiere and really enjoyed it - Sunday night at 10pm works well for me […]

(A quick aside: Am I the only one who can’t work saran wrap and foil correctly? As in, the entire roll gets discombobulated and I slice my finger open on the ragged edge every single time. )
Anyway, I was watching A History of Violence again, and every time I watch it I appreciate […]

random Monday stuff

Monday, October 9th, 2006

I finally saw Road House 2!

Okay, it wasn’t horrible, and it paid homage to the original by referencing a lot of the lines, like, be nice, until it’s time not to be nice, and the ever-popular, pain don’t hurt. Which might be the worst line ever. The main character is supposed […]

getting hooked

Sunday, September 17th, 2006

I have clearly addressed my love and devotion to the movie Road House several times (or more) on this blog. How then, could I have not known about Road House 2? I’m ashamed of myself, really. And excited to order it from payperview as soon as possible. Like, maybe tonight even.
I […]

defensiveness

Thursday, July 13th, 2006

Is anyone else watching Rock Star Supernova and finding the contestants a tad…defensive? And then, when they’re confronted by their own words, they backpedal? I’m just finding it really interesting to watch, because, like writing, singing is a creative endeavor that can also be subjective - well, unless you’ve got a voice like […]

really, I’m working over here…

Friday, July 7th, 2006

Is it bad that the Staples delivery man asked me if I ever got out of what he called gym clothes? Okay, well the daily outfit is usually yoga pants and a t-shirt, so technically he’s right, but I told him that he’s lucky he comes in the afternoon, or else he’d be asking […]

word for word

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

So the husband and I have started watching that show, The Ghost Whisperer , and in one recent scene, Jennifer Love-Hewitt is standing in between a ghost and the ghost’s loved one, and she’s telling the loved one what the ghost is telling her.
Except she’s not telling what the ghost is telling her word for […]

Wednesday, January 18th, 2006

Interesting few days around here - woke up two days ago to no heat and today, a huge wind and rain storm had me on edge all day. Our neighborhood is on the oldest grid in the city, so we lose power if someone breathes too hard. We did lose power for about […]

all alone

Monday, November 7th, 2005

And I mean that in the best way possible, since the parents left for Jamaica this morning.:biggrin: A whole week of freedom. Why do I suddenly feel like rolling in a keg?
Maybe a keg is what I need to get ass in gear for NaNo. I think the BOL writing / edits wrung […]

Tuesday? Wednesday?

Tuesday, October 25th, 2005

*waving hi*
One thing about staying / working at home is that I tend to lose all track of what day it is. And I’ve been deep in writing mode through the weekend and yesterday. Really, it’s stick your head in the sand mode and pretend you did not hear the contractor […]

anacondas

Saturday, July 30th, 2005

The other night I watched Anacondas. The second one, with the Blood Orchids. (I was supposed to be writing, but let’s not even go there.) And now I’ve got to rank it up there as the type of movie that drives me absolutely crazy, because it’s got all the elements to be really terrific […]

the honeymoon phase

Sunday, July 17th, 2005

I got up earlier than the husband and the three year old by about two hours. I always forget how nice it is when everything else is so quiet. It almost makes me want to get up that early every day. Almost. But I’m going to have to seriously consider it, […]

I lost Monday

Tuesday, July 12th, 2005

Seriously. Not sure where it went. But I guess if you’re going to lose a weekday, Monday’s the best one to go.
I happened on Rock Star INXS (or whatever it’s called) and I’ve got to tell you, as much as I didn’t want to like it, I did. Mainly because I thought […]

where heroes come from

Friday, May 20th, 2005

When my neighbor’s daughter was twelve, she shared a list with me of the twenty ideal qualities her boyfriend must have. I’ll share some of my favorites:
1. Must be a little bit smart.
2. Must be hot.
3. Must know that black and navy blue shouldn’t be worn together.
4. Must only annoy me 1x per […]

learning new things

Saturday, March 12th, 2005

I’d missed The Apprentice last week, which is a good thing because apparently they dressed up as clowns and I hate clowns. (and butterflies and wind chimes too) Come on, clowns were scary even before Stephen King’s It.
Anyway, thanks to this week’s Apprentice, I learned a new term — MILF — Mother […]

reality and TV

Saturday, September 25th, 2004

I obviously like reality since I read blogs which talk all about the reality of a writer’s life. I blog about reality most of the time when I’m not procrastinating with quizzes and forums and such. Reading romance writer (or any writer’s) blogs give me comfort about my reality, knowing that I’m not alone in […]

why I shouldn’t be allowed to watch Hidalgo

Saturday, June 26th, 2004

Don’t get me wrong - Viggo Mortenson is my favorite. Love him. So, of course, when my husband suggested watching Hidalgo the other night, I was all for it. Until I realized that horses were going to get hurt. So I spent most of the movie saying things like, “do you […]
