What am I reading?

2010-08-20T12:48:00.006-04:00

After having lunch with Chaske Spender yesterday, I was curious to find out more about a new movie that he is due to star in called Winter in the Blood (a movie based upon the first novel of James Welch which was first published in 1974). Chaske was so passionate while he was talking about the story that I had to learn more.

Winter in the Blood is a novel about the modern life of an American Indian. This novel takes a look at Indians through the eyes of someone who has lived this life and knows it better than most writers of this novel type. The plot follows the plight of a young man who has lost his sense of identity due to his heritage, family secrets, and the death of his brother. The young man accidentally discovers some truths about his family's past and this information finally frees him to discover the man he really is. It is a novel full of truth and hope. bookrags

I have decided to read the book before it's made into a movie and I will post my review in the coming months. To follow the process of this move visit the Facebook page or blog.

Happy reading ~ Kelly

Peter Facinelli Auctions Lunch for Charity

Peter Facinelli is auctioning a lunch with himself with all proceeds going to The Onyx and Breezy Foundation, which is a foundation for the welfare of animals.

The Foundation was formed in 2004 by Mark and Wanda Shefts to honor the memory of their two labrador retrievers. The Shefts’ passion for animals led them to create this non-profit foundation, which assists animals in a variety of ways. The foundation lends financial support to:

· Funding of equipment for medical facilities
· Funding for much needed research
· Medical treatment for animals where hardship is present
· Funding of organizations that benefit animals
· Other endeavors that benefit the welfare of animals

100% of your contributions to the Foundation will be directed to fulfill the goals of the Foundation which utilizes only volunteer staff.

Posted by Amy O: Our charity of the month spotlight is one that is near and dear to my heart. I’m one of those TwilightMOMS that is not actually a mom. (Don’t worry I’m well past the age requirement ) I do, however, have a very spoiled cat named Socks. I got him about three years ago from the local shelter which is why this month’s charity means so much to me. Our charity spotlight this month is Best Friends Animal Society.

Twilight Quilters Coven

2010-06-17T15:23:00.003-04:00

Twilight Quilters Coven, have made an Eclipse themed quilt that they would like to give away to one lucky Twilight fan. In an effort to raise money for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. These wonderful people donated their time and materials to make the quilt and are collecting donations (via PayPal), which will be given to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation.

For every $5 donation, the donor’s name will be put in a drawing for a chance to win the quilt. Everything that is collected through PayPal (minus the small fee that PayPal charges) will be donated directly to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. Last November they made a quilt for New Moon, which was auctioned off and it raised $850, all of it going to Alex’s Lemonade Stand. They hope to be able to top that for Eclipse.

The quilt features scenes from beginning to end of the Eclipse book as well as signatures from Peter Facinelli, Daniel Cudmore and Chaske Spencer. Check out this amazing quilt today.

2010-05-04T13:07:00.003-04:00

From Bree's blog:

THE DARK DIVINE is officially going to have a THIRD BOOK!!!! Yep, TDD is going to be a Trilogy!!!

Like I said, I've been holed up in my revisions cave, completely oblivious to the outside world, so when my agent called to tell me that Egmont wanted to buy 2 more books from me (yes, I said 2--more on that in a minute) I was kind of shocked--but elated. I am so happy that Grace and Daniel's story gets a third installment!! And believe me, some of you would not be happy with me if their adventures ended in THE LOST SAINT. continue reading

We can't wait to read the Lost Saint and now we have another book to look forward to.

TwilightMOMS charity of the month

2010-05-04T08:46:00.001-04:00

Although millions of music lovers were fans of Blue October before lead singer Justin Furstenfeld teamed with Stephenie Meyer for the Breaking Dawn Concert Series (and showed up on countless playlists on Stephenie’s website), many Twilight fans were undoubtedly first introduced to the band’s music through this book tour, and subsequently became fans of Blue October themselves. And any fan of Blue October knows two undeniable facts about the band: 1) Their live performances are an energy-filled couple of hours of amazingness, and 2) They are passionately invested in their Pick Up The Phone tour for suicide prevention. continue reading
