Unleashing Cosmic Destruction


Thundarr, the Barbarian... not exactly Celtic, or is he?

More afternoon sad meows, my darling-est, nine-lives lucky Felines... colder on the tame prairie with rain and snow in the forecast... during early afternoon, as a helicopter flew somewhat high overhead, one of the eagles swept low over the field... a mesmerizing juxtoposition.

New life lesson learned today for the Kougaress... sometimes you just have to roll your eyes at folks and situations, and keep on going...

All Divine Goodness to the folks of Japan, and to all of us in this time of Chernobyl like crisis... please, as the Kougaress yowled about in a previous blog, get *good* iodine supplements... they are crucial at this time, no matter what any expert on lamestream media may blab about to the contrary... it’s best, right now, to keep a good source of iodine in your system, at all times. Many iodine supplements also have potassium iodide. Plus, you can also use iodine topically.

Yes, this Big Cat just placed a large order for kelp capsules, kelp powder and Sea-Adine, even though she has those and Potassium Iodide on hand. No surprise, the Potassium Iodide is out of stock at iherb.com.
~~~~~~

Unleashing Cosmic Destruction ... a line from the opening of Thundarr, the Barbarian... no, this Big Cat missed this Saturday morning cartoon... not being of that kiddie generation... however, recently she heard the opening intro on Alex Jones’ radio show... Savagery, Super Science, Sorcery... but hey, with at least, six nuclear power plants in Japan in meltdown mode, and releasing huge clouds of radiation, along with one of their volcanoes spewing madly... no, it may not be an asteroid or a comet’s deadly strike... but, it might as well be *cosmic destruction unleashed*... AND, THIS AIN’T THE END, so sad to roar. This level of catastrophic event is likely to keep occurring elsewhere in our world. DESTRUCTION UNLEASHED, it’s here, my beloved Kittens. Do all you can to prepare. The New Madrid fault MAY be next. Or, it may be some other major horrific event.

From UNKNOWN COUNTRY’S OUT THERE ~

This image was taken in Christchurch, NZ on March 6,2011, by a professional photographer. It could be a lens flare, but it is strange that a video of something similar was posted on YouTube by a different person on March 4 and reported on Out There on March 6. If these are both lens flares, it is a strange coincidence, but it seems impossible that a large heavenly body could be present without much more general observation, not to mention effects on the solar system.

Big Cat Purring Snark Ahead...

It is a horror world! At least for this authoress... and confirmed now, since the Kougar has been compared to ‘Glen Beck writing a romance novel’. For the record: This Big Cat CANNOT STAND Mr. Beck. He’s a wimpy little creepy snake of a creature. So, Avidreader, yeah... thanks so much for the review. You sure made this Big Cat’s day. [said with She-cat tongue firmly planted in cheek]. To anyone who likes Mr. Beck, the Kougaress’s sincere apologies to you. However, she cannot abide him, even if she *may* agree with a ‘few’ of his ideas.

On the other paw, a nice reader emailed to ask if there will be a book two after BRANDED BY THE TEXANS. The Kougar has THROW CAUTION TO THE TEXAS WINDS on her schedule to write, and is always adding ideas and scenes to the story. Book II centers on Dono.

The Kougar also noticed on her visit to Siren-BookStrand’s MY EARNEST REVIEW that Branded has been rated 133 times. Most of those ratings are FOURS and FIVES. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

This is the Kougar’s official ROARS OF THANK YOU!!! moment to everyone who has purchased BRANDED BY THE TEXANS, or any of her books. She is grateful! ~wahoo good good vibes are coming your way~ this Big Cat luvs ya... yeeeehawww!

The Name Game ~ Snake Mean Sue


Picture from Gwydhar Enterprises ~ gwydhar.com/angels/bride.shtml ~ The figure of Bride comes from Scottish-Irish mythology (Bride in Scotland, Brighid in Ireland). She is a goddess figure associated with the coming of spring out of the winter (which is represented by an old woman called "Callaig") and is the patron of poetry, hearth fires, metal smiths, and childbirth. Bride is home to four hidden Turtles.
~~~

Nighttime purrs, my gorgeous Leprechaun-lucky Kittens... omygoodness, lots happening on the tame prairie... late this morning, the Kougaress saw a faint sort of something high in the sky... well, she couldn’t determine if it was a faint cloud, or something out of strange universe... since it didn’t follow the flow of the other wispy clouds, she got her glasses and checked it out... believe it, or not, there was a fairly large outline of a V... it was faint and shade darker than the sky... whatever??? this Big Cat never knows what to make of these sorts of things... other than tell it like she experienced it.

Oh, what a phenomenal sunset! A deep red blush on the horizon, then a lovely shade of yellow, followed by a deep sapphire that darkened into a spectacular blue teal. The white-shimmer crescent moon topped it all... wow, yowl about postcard or painting perfect.

Show Me Yours - Thursday Thirteen
by Kayelle Allen

I have a name-related game for you that's easy and fun to play. This is Thursday Thirteen, so of course there are thirteen questions. Here's how to play.

Use the first letter of either your last name, middle name, or maiden name to answer each of the following questions. They have to be real places, names, or things, with nothing made up.

~Okay then, the Kougar decided to play, and then she played by using her answers... well, you’ll see Sue is not nice~

The Name Game

1. What is your last name, middle name, or maiden name? SUE
2. An animal SNAKE
3. A boy's name STEVE
4. A girl's name SANDRA
5. A color SILVER
6. An occupation STOCK MARKET IDIOT
7. Something to wear SCARF
8. A beverage SANGRIA
9. A food SPAGHETTI
10. Something found in the bathroom SHOWER
11. Reason for being late SCARED
12. Something you shout SHOOT
13. A place SHAMBALA

Snake Mean Sue

Sue adored morphing into a snake. However, she didn’t adore being hunted by Steve. The effing creep was a collector for a zoo who specialized in shapeshifters. Sandra had warned her the silver-tongued devil only wanted to capture her in mid shift, then sell her to Joe, the stock market idiot who’d had to declare bankruptcy recently.

Sue flipped her paisley scarf over her shoulder, and smiled at the bartender as he placed the fruity goblet of Sangria before her. He might not be a shifter, but he sure did possess superior assets.

‘If ya know what I mean,’ she sang inside her head.

She smiled widely at the bartender’s teasing wink, rolling her shoulders. He grinned, and with a cocky flash of his eyes, he pivoted away, Sue enjoyed the view, then picked up her fork. Twirling her spaghetti into a mouthful, she lifted it to her mouth.

Before she could eat it, a shower of toxic spittle landed way too close to her plate. A smile slithered over Steve’s pretty boy features when she glanced upward.

Cobras gone bad were definitely ultra annoying. Sue rolled her eyes, then calmly set the fork-ful down.

“Like eating your own kind, do you?” she silkily cut, then reached for a napkin. “Here’s a suggestion. Why don’t you crawl off to a dark closet, hand-pump that garter-snake sized penis of yours.”

Sue carelessly tossed her curly locks, then tilted her chin. She fixed her gaze on the creepy creepazoid that had been named Steve.

“Shoot,” she sarcastically drawled, “when that genetically inferior sperm of yours shoots, or say, dribbles, you can dine on half of your future progeny.”

Steve’s pupils became slits, and he glared nastily.

“Is there a problem?” The bartender’s voice sounded like a powerful and welcome foghorn.

“Just a small disagreement between me and the lady,” Steve slickly crooned.

Sue nearly snorted a hiss. But, Mr. Hunky Bartender was worth her ladylike best behavior. Besides, his alpha intensity captured her full attention.

“I suggest you handle any disagreement civilly. The Club Shambala does not allow ladies to be harassed. And, neither do I.”

Sue could have kissed her white-knight rescuer squarely on that human, beautiful mouth of his. Oh, if only...

Will March 19 'Supermoon' Trigger Natural Disasters?

~ space.com/11084-supermoon-earthquake-storm-natural-disasters.html

On March 19, the moon will swing around Earth more closely than it has in the past 18 years, lighting up the night sky from just 221,567 miles (356,577 kilometers) away. On top of that, it will be full. And one astrologer believes it could inflict massive damage on the planet.

Richard Nolle, a noted astrologer who runs the website astropro.com, has famously termed the upcoming full moon at lunar perigee (the closest approach during its orbit) an "extreme supermoon."...

...The moon's gravity can even cause small but measureable ebbs and flows in the continents, called "land tides" or "solid Earth tides," too. The tides are greatest during full and new moons, when the sun and moon are aligned either on the same or opposite sides of the Earth.

BRANDED BY THE TEXANS

This reviewer's rating: 5 - Outstanding

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and really hope that Ms Kougar is working on more books about the Three Star Republic. I loved the seamless way she blended a historical western feel with a sci/fi-alternate-universe-reality. I aways enjoy pop references in a story as well (Captain Sisco and Chuck Norris comments). I'm certain I'll be rereading it many times in the future.

Prehistoric USA
Thursday, March 10, 2011

Road workers have discovered an ancient burial mound full of prehistoric treasures--in Indiana! When a bulldozer operator made off with some of it, he ended up in jail. When this prehistoric culture was discovered among the rolling hills of the state in the 19th century, it was called the "Hopewell Site," after the farmer who owned the 500 acres where artifacts were first found. The Archeology Daily News quotes archeologist Michele Greenan as saying, "What you're seeing here is a complex of earthen structures that were very purposefully and very specifically built along this cultural landscape. There's a number of mounds here--probably 20, maybe even more mounds, earthen architectural features that were built for different purposes" (like ceremonies or burial). They've even found a Hopewell version of Stonehenge, but built of wooden posts. And like so many ancient cultures, it has totally disappeared. (NOTE: Subscribers can still listen to these two shows).

There may be an even more remarkable discovery that could rewrite the history books of this area: Scientists have found evidence of lead smelting in these artifacts, a practice that was assumed to have taken place in North America only after the French arrived, 1,000 years after the Hopewell Tradition. Greenan is quoted as saying, "It's a sleeping giant, and it's going to take its place as one of the most important archeological sites in North America." Evidence for a diversified sea-based economy among inhabitants of North America, dating from 12,200 to 11,400 years ago is also emerging from another part of the USA: three sites on California's Channel Islands. Researchers have discovered scores of arrowheads and crescents dating to that time period. The artifacts are associated with the remains of shellfish, seals, geese, cormorants and fish. Some of the arrowheads are so delicate that their only practical use would have been for hunting on the water.

Treasure from early cultures has been discovered in SOUTH America to, buried beneath a lake in Guatemala. But archeologist didn't know it was there until they spent 40 years cracking the code in an ancient book containing a map to the treasure. Fox News quotes Mayan expert Joachim Rittsteig as saying, "The Dresden Codex leads to a giant treasure of eight tons of pure gold."

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues...

Part 587 ~

Sylva studied the door that was partly hidden by foliage and appeared to be the entrance to a cave or some type of tunnel. Whatever, it was inside of the mountain. That much she could tell. Hovering closer she noticed a tiny insignia engraved in the center of the dark-colored door. From a distance the enormous door probably looked like a shadow. To her relief, the design was not the BP logo, but more on the order of the Maya 2012 calendar face she’d seen, the one popularized. Whoever had placed the insignia, the crafting detail struck her as immaculate.

Zeke propelled the submersible through the lurching rough sea. With every skill he possessed, and using his gut instincts, he kept them from being overturned and helplessly tossed every which way. So far. The thought of his Sylva, of returning to her, acted like a prime motivator to keep at it, to overcome. And, so did his family. He surely wanted his father returned to his mother, brought back to his sister. With a longing he’d never experienced before, he wanted his family around him. He wanted to be on the ranch, working at what he loved. “Countdown,” Benjamin shouted.

EXCLUSIVE: Fannie and Freddie's Foreclosure Barons

How the federal housing agencies—and some of the biggest bailed-out banks—are helping shady lawyers make millions by pushing families out of their homes.

— By Andy Kroll

Wed Aug. 4, 2010 12:01 AM PDT

LATE ONE NIGHT IN February 2009, Ariane Ice sat poring over records on the website of Florida's Palm Beach County. She'd been at it for weeks, forsaking sleep to sift through thousands of legal documents. She and her husband, Tom, an attorney, ran a boutique foreclosure defense firm called Ice Legal. (Slogan: "Your home is your castle. Defend it.") Now they were up against one of Florida's biggest foreclosure law firms: Founded by multimillionaire attorney David J. Stern, it controlled one-fifth of the state's booming market in foreclosure-related services. Ice had a strong hunch that Stern's operation was up to something, and that night she found her smoking gun.

Sylva felt the sensation of whirling around as she gazed upward. ‘It is done?’ she asked. ‘Tell them,’ the voice answered. For a split second Sylva wondered, tell who? But, she knew. Tell Zeke and the sub crew. ‘When? Where?’ she asked. Starting to feel her astral form tugged on, pulled somewhere, Sylva didn’t know whether or not to resist. ‘Tell them,’ the voice continued, ‘we will care for the dimensional shell. Their work is finished.’ Slowly, Sylva whooshed somewhere. ‘Okay,’ she answered. ‘Who are you?’ A quiet surrounded her, one that felt all encompassing. ‘We are known as Caretakers.’

Zeke continued easing the submersible upward. “From what I can surmise,” his dad used his pondering voice, ‘looks like the energy stream settled down just fine and is doin’ what we hoped. But, I’ll need more data analysis – “ The submersible rocked like a toy duck in a bathtub. “She’s blowin’,” Benjamin announced what they all realized. “Once we break surface, Zeke. Skedaddle us outta here. I’m puttin’ the coordinates in now. All you gotta do is handle her like you been doin’. I need the rest of the crew for analysis of that volcano. Whew!

Celebrating the Ninth Release ~ BRANDED BY THE TEXANS


Oh, yippee and wahoo! It’s finally here. The Kougar’s *Sliders meets Bonanza meets The Three Star Republic* erotic romance novel.

Blurb ~

What can three Texans do to a woman’s body and heart?
Kylie is about to find out.
Beyond her wildest dreams.
On a parallel Earth.

It’s 2009... Kylie is on the run from the law for a crime she didn’t commit. A promising doctoral student, she’s lost everyone and almost everything, except for what she stows in her car. Now, Kylie has to salvage the rest of her life. But, where in this age of GPS tracking, TV’s Most Wanted and cameras everywhere?

It’s 2009... Dillon, Dono and Dash are three brothers desperate for a wife to brand as their own. The Union made women scarce in the Three Star Republic by releasing a bio weapons’ plague during the border wars. These tough-as-leather Texans will do anything to keep the right woman, even if they have to lasso her like a wild filly and love on her until she loves them back.
~~~~~~

PG Excerpt ~

Dillon hitched his boot on the first rail and leaned forward, resting on his crossed arms. Swishing their tails, four of their year-old fillies munched on the fresh hay they’d been given in the morning. They were part of the next generation in the ranch’s breeding program to create the hardiest and best-looking stock.

Joining him, Dono and Dash keenly studied his expression, once they’d planted themselves.

“I don’t want to know,” Dillon forestalled any explanation. Looking away from his brothers, he eased himself by watching the fillies, yet kept Dono and Dash in his peripheral vision.

“We need more of a plan than just the garden,” Dono began.

“What kind of plan?” Dillon kept his tone neutral.

“You know that hole in the dimensional wall near Pine Springs at the gas station? I hear tell it’s still open.” Dash propped his boot up.

“Talked to Craig last Saturday,” Dono continued. “He says they still get vehicles with license plates and the people want to pay with credit cards. When they ain’t single women, he pretends to take the information and tells folks to make certain they get back on the main road the same way they came through town because a bridge is out.”

“Craig keeps a whole dang list of bachelors like us—”

Dillon shook his head, stopping Dash. “I’d lasso a woman for us quick as a rattlesnake strikes and bring her home. That’s accepted here. It don’t seem right when the woman is from a parallel world.”

“Hell, you could be doin’ the woman a favor,” Dash persisted. “Pamela says there were all sorts of women from her Earth who were looking for what she called their ‘soul mates’ and having no luck.”

“Talk about wanting a woman, big brother. How long will it take us to lure a woman here, even with the niceties? Right now, unattached women are scarcer than hen’s teeth.” Dono punched the fence plank, emphasizing his frustration.

“Yeah, and the fallout from the plagues has caused a low birth rate.” Dash kicked the dirt, barely stirring any dust from the low mountain ground of northwest Texas. “Besides, I don’t want no close-to-the-cradle bride. I want a real woman.”

Dillon dropped his head, staring at nothing. “Yeah, I agree. I want a woman not a child that still needs raisin’. What does Craig want from us?”

“Stud service for his two mares,” Dono quickly answered. “I know he’s been after our line for a long while.”

“Shoulda known. Dang it, they’re poor stock. What’s he offerin’ exactly?” Dillon raised his head and eyed his brothers.

“We tell him our general preferences, and he puts us at the head of the list for that type of female. One of us has to be within ridin’ distance of his fill-up station or someone else gets the call.” Dono’s gaze glittered with his desperate hope.

“It’s still faster than tryin’ to lure a woman here or canvassing the whole republic for a bride.” Dash used his most convincing voice.

“Let me guess, you two already told Craig our preferences.”

Dono and Dash nodded as one. “Just like we discussed,” Dono seriously replied.
“And how is this plan supposed to work? There are no roads to drive the Tesla or the trucks into Pine Springs. And the ranch don’t take care of itself.”

“We all take three day shifts,” Dash answered too enthusiastically. “It’s only half a day’s ride down our mountain path.”

“Besides it will give us a chance to make more barter deliveries to the general store.” Dono slightly grinned.

Dillon figured he knew that he and Dash were winning their big brother over. “You two got this all worked out, have you?” Turning at the waist, he leaned on the top rail again.

“We’ve been talkin’ a lot, figuring it out, yep.” Dash tossed back his long auburn hair. An unruly forelock had fallen over his eyes. “You’re not the only one loco and longin’ for a woman around here.”

“Must be true.” Dillon heard the dry retort of his voice. “Since you two got stud hormones that won’t be eased by pounding fists on each other. Promise to stop, and I’ll go along with this plan.” Dillon drilled them with his gaze. “Act up again, and I’ll stop it deader than a border raider’s blasted ass.”

“Wahoo!” Dash leaped straight up.

Dillon scowled. “This doesn’t get you two out of garden duty.”

Dono jabbed Dash’s ribs with his elbow. “Come on. She’s not gonna want a steady diet of meat, canned vegetables, biscuits and beans.”

Watching his brothers gallop toward the fenced-off plot with Maisy and Wayward hot on their heels, Dillon briefly shook his head.

One of the fillies, a chestnut he called Stargirl because of the marking on her forehead, approached and nuzzled his chest. He rubbed her gleaming neck. Her winter coat had fallen out mostly and she shone with a deep red color. “You’d make a good mount for a woman, my Stargirl.”

Despite his misgivings over the whole dang scheme, Dillon shrugged. He could kill two birds with one stone. They could all be on the lookout for a woman while increasing their trade with the general store. Their ranch’s tanned hides and smoked beef were always in demand. To their benefit, they’d stock up on needed items as well as purchase more of the luxuries. A woman would appreciate that.
~~~~~~

SEXCERPT ~

...She slid against him in a dang erotic way he surely relished.

“How about your ankles, darlin’?” Dillon swirled his thumb over her outer ankle.

“Please.” Her voice was barely above the sound of the water.

Continuing to massage her foot with one hand, Dillon smoothed his other palm over her ankle. Dash watched him languidly stroked the sweet shape with the length of his fingers. Dono followed his lead using his thumb to lightly stimulate her sexual point, the one located below her inner ankle.

“I should be dreaming.” She sighed luxuriously. “I’m keeping my eyes closed just in case I am dreaming. Besides, those cowboy cocks of yours are looking for love already.”

All three brothers locked gazes with each other. “Lookin’ for love, like the song?” Dash fondled her ass with small squeezes.

“Yeah, the song. From a John Travolta movie.”

“John Travolta?” Dono cupped her ankle between his hands and massaged.

“He’s a well-known actor on my Earth. Oh, I like what you’re doing, musketeer cowboy. Both of you, what you’re doing.”

“There is no John Travolta, the actor, here.” Dillon gradually smoothed the heel of his hand up the water-slickened flesh of her calf.

“Mmmm…Viking cowboy. Who did sing it? I can’t recall on my Earth.”

Dash watched the shower spray strike his wife’s body forming rivulets that flowed over her delectable round shape. Heaven had definitely found him, and he wanted to stay. “Lots of artists here, honey. I’ve been known to belt it out now and then.”

“Mmmm… a singing prince cowboy.” Kylie moved against him, sensual as a big cat. “Oh, yes,” she moaned, “your hands are driving me so sexy-insane.”

Dono braced her foot against his solar plexus, then slipped both of his hands up her leg. Sweeping longer strokes, he massaged her calf, gradually including her knee.

Clenching her ass tighter, Dash slipped his thumbs over the tender inner flesh of her crack.

“Three against one. I’m liking this more and more.” Arching her back, Kylie pressed her butt against his loins.

Dash groaned. Of its own accord, his shaft nudged her twat’s petals, steamier than inside the shower stall. Controlling himself, he gently rubbed his cock’s head back and forth, and ached mightily to plunge inside her.

“Such a nice tease, prince cowboy,” she throatily crooned. “Yes, oh God, my thighs have never felt this good…Dillon, Dono.”

Nestling the crown of his shaft between her carnal folds, Dash took a look at what his brothers were doing. They massaged in different ways, fondling the entire length of her thighs.

“Kylie,” Dono darkly purred above the sound of the shower. “I’ll bet you’d like me pleasurin’ your nubbin.” Dono eased his hand over her curls. Cupping, he kneaded her woman’s plump mound.

Tightening her hold on his neck, Kylie uttered a strangled whimper and rocked her sex rose on Dash’s cockhead.

Dono slipped the side of his hand between her thighs. Teasing the cleft of her mound, he fingered open her female flesh. “I’ll bet you’ll like Dash puttin’ his big cock inside you at the same time.”

“Come here, Kylie,” Dillon commanded. “I’ll hold onto you and suck your teats.”

A needy cry escaped her throat, and Kylie let go of Dash’s neck. Leaning forward, she reached for Dillon. Her arms flew around his neck and she clutched him like a lifeline.

“That’s it, my sweet thang.” Dillon roved his hands over the voluptuous swells of her hips and the slender dip of her waist. “Dash’ll keep himself reined in till you want him real bad.”

Gripping her thighs near her ass, Dash spread Kylie as her legs loosely surrounded Dillon’s hips. Rearing wild with ache, he jabbed his cock’s head inside her slick little hole. Not wanting to take her too fast, he fucked her entrance and waited for Dono to do his special magic with her feminine bud. “She wide enough for you, brother?”

“Yep. I feel her. You’ve got the most exquisite nubbin, Kylie love,” Dono crooned, coaxing her to let go of any inhibition. “You like me squeezin’ it this way? Strokin’ this way?”

“Oh, please, yes…keep doing what you’re doing. Dono, yes, pinch me.”

Kylie squirmed on the hot poker that was his cock and danced in that cat-like sinuous way of hers. Dash stroked her inner thighs with his thumbs. More and more, he fell in love with the way his wife moved, with the feel of her body.

“Dang, princess,” he growled. “I want to melt the cream in your sweet pussy.”

“Yes, do it!” she cried out.

Great Openings
by Hortense Powdermaker

Some authors can suck you right in with an arresting first line.

I like ones that start off with dialogue that flings you into the plot.

“Where’s Papa going with that ax?” is a good example. It’s so much sharper than “I shall speak first of Wilbur,” which was in one of E.B. White’s early drafts for Charlotte’s Web.
~~~

The Kougar’s Flash Fiction as begun by Hortense’s opening line ~

“Tucked away in bottom of her dresser, in a rose-pink sachet bag made of silk, Ursula kept a severed ear.” ~ She’d recently found it on her back step. A strange thing, it looked to be perfectly preserved with not a drop of blood anywhere. In fact, to her eye, it appeared to have been lasered off neatly…from whoever? Even more weird, it reminded her of Spock’s famous pointed ear. It fit in her palm nicely and that creeped her out because it felt like real flesh. She’d noticed a minimal smell she couldn’t identify. So, where were the MIBs?

Happy Courtship on another Earth

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues...

Part 581 ~

Sylva twisted around, restless. What about the plasma bomb? God, she felt mystified. Her mind bounced frantically, as if it was in danger of flying apart. How did she use her psi powers? Whatever they all were. What about the BP scum, the elite bunch who wanted to conquer her Earth, this Earth...every Earth? Should she be doing something to stop them? More to the point, what should she be doing? She’d always believed freedom was her birthright, and the right of every human being. Throughout history brave women and men had fought for their right to be free.

Zeke had never ridden a dang buckin’ twistin’ bull like this particular challenging circumstance. He and his dad glanced at each other and held one another’s gazes for long seconds. “Anyone else gotta solution?” Jamison asked. “Well, guldurn it,” Benjamin boomed a moment later, “let’s grab the devil by his slick red tail. Looks like Phil and Frederick have a plan drawn up that could kill two birds with one blast.” Phil gave an absent nod. “We’re workin’ on it.” Frederick stepped to the panel. “We’re doin’ some refining. The Old Book has it right. I know it in my gut.”

Sorta stormy Monday meows, my adorably vivacious KitKats... a couple of hit and miss storms on the tame prairie that lowered the temperature delightfully, but threatened to shut down moi’s on-a-roll computer activities... but, so far, all is well, with Branded being e-sent back to Siren-BookStrand and the release now officially ONE WEEK away!!!

Clean Writing: The "Avoids"
Writing science research papers taught me the process of clean writing—manuscripts free of too many useless words. "Just the facts, ma'am." As a result, my first fiction manuscript was a failure. The editor told me my writing read like a textbook. That sort of hurt, but the statement opened a floodgate of words that's still gushing. I could use adjectives! And adverbs! And descriptions!
But also…too many useless words and phrases.

Weekly Angelic Forecast from Volcano

Straight from the Carnal Cherub himself...

Angelic Forecast ~ #99

During this week manufactured distractions will appear as reality on the world stage. The war drums will beat furiously as the need for freedom continues to gain momentum. A soul rising that cannot be hidden by the dark ones shines over the whole of humanity. Many who now see the false god behind the curtain will take action realizing they must protect themselves, those they love and the lands they love.

At this time, on a personal level, reach out to those you care about and those you trust. If they need help and you can help them, now is the time. Community is the word of the week, and for the remainder of this year. Form a community of like minds wherever you can. Look for ways to join with family, friends and neighbors. Learn about each other. It is crucial.

Angelic blessings from Volcano & Sedona

From Astrology.com ~

Overnight between July 25 and 26, there is a Full Moon in Aquarius, (July 26, 1.38 a.m. UT). As always, with the 29-day Full Moon cycle, there is a pull in two different directions. The Sun on one side of the zodiac in Leo wants to seek the spotlight and be flamboyant. While the Aquarius Moon on the opposite side says that being part of a group of friends is more important than personal glory. Finding a balance where you can fruitfully live out both ends of it, is the key to fulfillment.

This Full Moon, however, will be less see-saw than most since it has a boost from Jupiter in Aries in an easy trine to the Sun and an easy sextile to the Moon. So there'll be enthusiasm around as well as good luck. The energies of the cosmos also call for a summer like marginally lazy or passive mood when making an effort to do something may not seem to be worth it.

What is for sure is this is a people-friendly Full Moon so hiding away or going it alone is not an option. Maybe you will feel pulled between loved ones and your best buddies so you'll be spreading yourself in all directions at once. But at least you won't be lonely.

Sylva could only observe... could only add the strength of her will, as she felt Zeke doing. And pray. “The hellblade of it is,” Benjamin boomed, “how do we get ‘em into the portal at just the right time? Blow their system to wave-type smithareens too soon and we risk a dimensional collapse. Only the Lord above knows what that looks like. Blow ‘em too late and it’ll cause another kind of collapse...” Sylva watched Zeke’s father whip around at the waist. “They’re going in now, Benjamin,” he interrupted. “Sucked as if that thing is a mother of a cyclone.”

Zeke jerked his gaze toward his dad. Benjamin stared hard at the panel. “Initiate,” he barked. “Laser-rewire that blasted that Wormwood demon, gentlemen. Zeke, when I say ‘go’ pull that lever all the way down. Slowly, like counting off seconds. We gotta time this down to the split second. Since I ain’t got the instruments to know that kind of timing, it’ll have to be done on a gut and a prayer.” Zeke steeled himself. Gripping the lever with a steady hand, he focused as if he was about to rope an ornery longhorn bull that charged his precious Sylva.

Did you know shrimp on Prozac are committing suicide, or simply swimming up to birds to be eaten... with no inhibition they are also recklessly attacking clams, who then merely devour them. Prozac is so prevalent in our culture, it is being found in the water supply and in shrimp and other seafood. We are all being medicated whether we want it or not, whether we need it, or not. Your municipal water supply is not filtering out Prozac or other contaminating drugs. Nor is food being decontaminated.
It’s no wonder this Big Cat saw a photo of folks taken in the forties, today, who appeared a hell of a lot healthier, despite a lot them being seniors, than individuals do today. Also, recently shocking to the Kougaress was a picture of two South American young women that she saw while doing research on the solar eclipse... OHMYGAWD!!! They looked so healthy, so beautifully vibrant compared to Americans, or North Americans.
Yes, even when compared to any actress or celebrity this Big Cat has seen pictured for the last several years.

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues...

Part 502 ~

Sylva felt a tiny shock of awareness. She hadn’t known it, but a part of her had believed she’d never be saying those words... ‘such a good husband’. Deciding that she should reward her cowboy, she intensified her efforts at massaging the bottom of his foot, rubbing the acupuncture points she knew about. When she turned her attention on his other foot, he readily offered it. Smiling, she, once again, used her toes and the ball of her foot to work on him. “Afraid I’ll quit?” she asked after long while. “It feels too dang good, wife,” he guttural muttered.

Zeke figured he probably shouldn’t be letting his Sylva expend all that energy on healing his feet. But, hang his hat on the sun, it felt like rubbin’ heaven, and he could feel the energy zinging through his body in a powerful ways. “Don’t tire yourself out, darlin’ mine. You’re making it right hard for this cowpoke to say stop.” Zeke opened one eye. His beautiful woman smiled at him. “I’ll massage yours...if you massage mine. Feet, that is.” Returning her smile with a slow-as-molasses grin, he rumbled, “Done deal.” Zeke roused himself enough to pick up her dainty foot.

Branded... Beyond Her Wildest Dreams

Pic from ~ http://artcountrycanada.com ~

Wahoooo.... yahooooo...yippee... It’s finally happened!!! my Beautiful Big Cats, the Kougar finished polishing BRANDED BY THE TEXANS and has submitted, so claws crossed for the best outcome.
If you want the inside story check out the Kougar’s blog at
SHAPESHIFTER SEDUCTIONS... moi only has so much energy and her bloggie was already scheduled. And, the manuscript had just been e-sent. The silly Kougar Kat was so tired she accidently sent it to *sunmissions* instead of *submissions*...
Big Chesire kitty smiles, though... moi is definitely happy with how Branded turned out. And, that’s what ultimately matters, even if... heaven forbid... others don’t like it... but mews and whews, is this Big Cat author worn out.


Here’s a possible tag line ~

What can three Texans do to a woman’s body, her heart and her soul?
Kylie is about to find out.
Beyond her wildest dreams.
On a parallel Earth
.

Here’s the blurbie so far ~

It’s 2009... Kylie is on the run from the law for a crime she didn’t commit. She’s desperate for a safe place to hide. A promising doctoral student, she’s lost everyone and almost everything, except for what she can stow in her car. Now, Kylie has to salvage the rest of her life. But, where? In this age of GPS tracking, TV’s Most Wanted and cameras everywhere.

It’s 2009... Dillon, Dono and Dash, three Texas brothers are desperate for a wife to brand as their own. The Union made women scarce in the Three Star Republic by releasing a bio weapons’ plague during the border wars. These tough-as-leather Texans will do anything to find and keep the right woman, even if they have to lasso her like a wild filly and love on her until she loves them back.

~~~
Yes, the Kougar has always wanted to write a Western with a Happily Ever After. Now, she’s done it, complete with a monster pickup chase scene and an ambush bang-bang shoot out where death isn’t a stranger. And since it’s an erotic romance... the dang doors are ripped right off.

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues...

Part 415 ~

Sylva fizzed pleasantly inside at Zeke’s expression, at the way he’d begun. Not to mention she was damn curious about the joke, itself, and if her husband had the ability to tell a joke. “During a time when men and women had a different set of moral standards,” he continued, a twinkle in his whiskey-colored eyes, “there was a cowboy who decided he was tired of riding range, goin’ from one ranch to the next and workin’ on cattle drives. He’d earned himself a nest egg and found a small spread to purchase. Well, he couldn’t very well be without...”

Zeke paused and waited for his Sylva to prompt him. She didn’t disappoint. Gazing at him adorably, she cocked her head. “Be without?” she asked, her gaze gleaming at him. Briefly, he tickled her belly, watching her playfully grab his hand to stop him. “He couldn’t very well be without a wife,” Zeke meaningfully rasped. “So he headed into the nearest town one Saturday to look for a bride.” Thrusting her chin out, his woman asked, “Did he bring his marrying lasso?” Zeke chuckled, a low intimate sound just for his wife. “There was no marrying lasso in those days.”

Pernell Roberts, so long, pardner...


~ http://pernellrobertsaroundtheworld.com ~
~
http://triviatribute.com ~

Loveliest Big Kittens, life is stranger than fiction. Here the Kougar is, currently polishing up her manuscript, BRANDED BY THE TEXANS... what was *one* of her key inspirations? You guessed it... Bonanza, the Ponderosa... Adam, Hoss, Little Joe and their father, Ben Cartwright.
Pernell Roberts, who just passed over to that big ranch in the wide-open sky ~ played Adam Cartwright, the oldest brother. While most of the girls had a moon-eyed crush on Little Joe... nope, this cub girl had her eye on the sexy black-garbed oldest brother, Adam. His quiet power intrigued her while his TV on-screen passion with a woman... well, breathless and captivated comes to mind. The Kougaress can recall eagerly rushing to watch Bonanza, hoping the episode would revolve around big brother, Adam.
Course, it was a never-ending frustration that the brothers were kept deprived of feminine company. She died. She left. She had a husband... she found another husband... whatever the plot device used. Oh, oops, that arrow got her. Or the raging waters of a flood.

Although Dillon, Dono and Dash Vega *are not* modeled after the Cartwright brothers, not in personality or appearance... still, they own a huge spread and work their ranch in a similar way. And they are brothers. That’s the key, those sibling dynamics in a situation where they not only rely on each other, but love each other and fight each other, as only brothers can.

At the time, I believe Bonanza was a phenome, even though Westerns abounded, and were the standard fare of evening television. Why? Overall, the stories were excellent and were mini-morality plays where good always triumphed over evil. The good guys won and you were glad they won because they were the kind of good guys you could understand and relate too. They were human, but tough. And underneath it all, they had hearts of gold. They didn’t preach from on high, they lived their integrity. And, if they messed up, they paid the consequences and cleaned up the mess they made.

So, thank you, Pernell Roberts, and so long, pardner... the Kougaress knows heaven has welcomed you with wide-open arms.

RANT!!! and ROARS!!! ~ Grrrrrrrr and a showing of fangs... $85 for renewing the Kougar’s RWA membership... yep and no pep in her heart, moi did pay to remain a member of Romance Writers of America... because that was her final gut intuition.
But! And a fierce slashing of her tail... what does she get for her losing-value dollars... *devalued* as an author, overall... that’s what she gets.
True, there is value or benefit in remaining a member. No argument there. But, really, this Big Cat author simply feels as though she’s paying to sustain others and their author agendas... not her own career. Plus, she’s paying for an overall system she no longer believes in because of their unjust policies toward small print/e-publishers and their authors.
Gee, if it didn’t originate in New York or California... well, the book can’t be that good. What a load of big bad spoiled baloney. Not to mention it’s a myth, one carefully fostered by 5th Avenue advertising methods.
Really, come on, RWA, turn the Titanic around before you hit the obviously looming iceberg. Yeah, it’s called the economy. Bigger than that it’s called *evolving*. Readers are evolving. Writers are evolving.
The old model of BIG BOY publishing is over!!! It’s toppling over, in the death throes, a colossal dinosaur, no matter if it is in slow motion and no matter how many times it tries to keep itself propped up and makes itself look good. It’s dying... and the almost-corpse stinks to high heaven.
New business models need to be created, acknowledged where they currently exist, and built upon. Why aren’t those who run the RWA looking toward the future instead of clinging to the past?

Geez Louise, it’s like some hood-hidden mugger is about rip the handbag they’re desperately clinging to, away from them? It’s a fake Prada and the only thing of value in there is a collection of lipstick-used, snot-wadded tissues... oh, and old gum wrappers filled with lumps of flavorless gum. Oops, I forgot that stashed ten dollar bill... comparable to the so-called *advances* some authors receive from the Big Boy muggers.
Hey, maybe it’s the principle of the thing. He ain’t getting my handbag, no matter what! It’s mine. I’m not letting go. Fine, either kick his ugly butt like Buffy, the Vampire Hunter, and end it right there. Or, get a real clue and let go, then run like hell and escape toward the light of truth.

And, if I hear anyone tell me to get *involved*, have my voice heard. Well, here’s my voice. Listen.
I dare you.

Happy Courtship on another Earth

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues...

Part 394 ~

Sylva gripped her cowboy’s forearm as if her hand had changed into a talon. Aware of what she’d just said, she knew at some level, it wasn’t merely the raging bliss that had brought about those words. Something much deeper had compelled her. With each fondling turn of her nipple, Sylva fell into a stupor of lust, of wanting what he did to her with such ferocity it frightened her. As if he sensed she’d reached a place that had become too intense, her cowboy caressed over her breast and tantalized her other breast with kneading strokes. “Oh, god, Zeke.”

Zeke gentled his Sylva by shoving away the robe and smoothing his hand over the swells of her other shivering breast. He’d felt her and watched her succumb to her deepest desires, then drown too rapidly, as if a flashflood of rapture carried her too far, and too fast from him. His own growl of pleasure started at the base of his stud shaft, firing a wicked jagged path up his loins and through his torso like the liquor he and his father drank together, occasionally, in celebration of their ranch triumphs. He growled, his need for his woman primal.
