They need some new rules, for sure.

LOL I have to confess, I watch the news about the Eboli epidemic, and think how inadequate some people have been in keeping isolation protocol and preventing infected people from entering public places. I admire the spirit of the doctor who survived and is donating plasma to help those stricken. Did I just go off on a vent? LOL Anyway, thank you so much for giving me a copy of White Christmas.

LOL I think you're right about the contemporaries being easier to write, in some ways. You don't ever have to worry about "did they have" this or that. And the language...You know, we had taped some of the new episodes of NCIS and tonight we were watching one where they had some flashbacks to 1969. And one of the characters said, "Works for me." Not only was it totally out of place in that time period, but the writers must have been hung up on it, because I counted and that phrase was used at least three times during the episode, in all time periods from 1969 to present day. I don't remember EVER hearing that phrase until just the last few years. Anyhow, I digress. Livia did a wonderful, fantastic job on the cover--so hot, and this story deserves a very hot cover because...well, it's pretty dang hot. LOL <br /><br />I'm so glad I keep you entertained and wondering how I'm going to hurt the next guy. You know, I do have a couple of stories where that's already happened and they're just getting over it. This one, and Always and Forever both involve firefighters who were injured--in Always and Forever, the hero was rescuing a mama dog and her babies from a burning house. What's not to love???? Oh, and in A Heart for a Heart, he hadn't been injured, but was home from Iraq to see to his nephew and had to decide if he was going to re-enlist or not. Man, I kind of feel like Iet these guys down somehow...

Gees. I can relate to Carlie about wanting to work on the holidays (not in the ER. Lordy. Holidays are busier than other days.) I not only wanted to work all the holidays in CCU after my husband and I separated, but I signed up for double shifts so all I had to do was go home to sleep. It was a miserable time. I made bookoos of money though and shopped like a fool. <br />I love this cover, Cheryl. Oh the magic hands of Livia. <br />I'm going to say this, just speaking for myself, and I know someone will shoot me for it, but I think contemporaries in the places I know well (East Coast) are easier to write than any other stories I write. I don't know why I don't write more of them. <br />Any how, I know this single short is going to be a big success. All good things to your corner of the earth, Cheryl.Sarah J.

I love this beautiful new cover Livia did for me, too. I enjoy these contemporary stories--they're lots of fun to write and sometimes I think...I need to make that into a longer story!<br /><br />Thanks for coming by, Liette!<br />CherylCheryl Piersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18116526340220274282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2091700778275524261.post-8244166441392452752014-10-14T15:54:40.768-05:002014-10-14T15:54:40.768-05:00Grrr.

Hi Chery...Grrr. Lost my comment. So, I was saying: <br />Hi Cheryl,<br /><br />It's interesting to see that you write more contemporary stories as well as western/western historical. Way to go, my friend. I'm proud of you. <br /><br />As for "Will they spend the holidays haunted by the ghosts of the past, or could this Christmas spark a new, beautiful friendship…or even something more?" I have the strange feeling it will be more, much much more. :) <br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04880638535934581587noreply@blogger.com
