Have a great weekend everyone! Avoid the storms if they are in your area. If your state is having a fair, try and go! Tennessee’s just started. It’s great people watching, supporting the 4H kids, and of course disgusting unhealthy food that we all will try.
I love funnel cakes!!! 
Our fair starts this week, but it’s gonna be too effing hot outside for me to go.
My cat is in the doghouse! I was in urgent care two nights ago with swollen lymph nodes and pain just inside my ear. Dr thought it was a lingering infection from pneumonia and gave me an antibiotic that didn’t work.
Pain has been indescribable!!
I saw my regular Dr today and she said she saw what looked like a scratch around the swollen insides of my ear. My left neck, face, jaw is swollen, too. I remembered Butters tried to hurdle my head and scratched my ear 3 nights.
Dr said, “That’s it! It caused this massive infection and cat scratch bacteria won’t respond to the antibiotic ER put you on.”
Sigh.
Started new antibiotic and steroids today, and pain is livable now. And went to acupuncturist and he stuck a needle right behind my ear. Ouch! But it all felt better by the time I left.
Hoping my day goes up from here. 🙄
Congratulations to the always-enjoyable Toreador for earning an Editor’s Pick award on his latest story — In The Closet!
It’s a fast-paced, sexy, humorous tale that you don’t want to miss. You also don’t want to be the dude in the closet. 😳
Read it! It’s brilliant!
It's a joke, until it's you in there.

Night all just a random thought what do you say to pain 1 to ten hmmmmm I'll ask around if anyone cares
Music helps me, Fuzzy Lion. And make sure you tell your caregiver. You should be receiving meds to help. ❤️
David, there is the funniest razor commercial with 3 women, naked from waist down, standing in front of topiaries that were positioned in front of their mounds. They are each trimming their “topiary”. 🤣🤣🤣

Good morning all. I’m up at this ungodly hour because it’s the first day of school here. Need coffee.
Hope the new school year is a great one! 
Lots of news!
Happy for your son, Kat! ❤️
Bunny, happy anniversary and birthday and glad you are better! ❤️
David, I bet sciatica sucks! Hope it gets better! ❤️
Bear, get that comp entry in!! ❤️
Everyone else in here, I hope you have a glorious day and enjoy a nibble of my chocolate buns.

You can do it! I did 1.5 this morning with my pup before it got too hot.
Good for you! 😊I didn’t make it. 1 mile was it. The heat got me. I’ll try another this evening.
Thanks for warming up the toys, Mr Ape
Morning, Rumpies 
I am trying to walk 2 miles today!! We’ll see how it goes. It’s taken me forever to get back up to 1 mile after that pneumonia bitch kicked my ass.
If you need me, I’ll probably be in Storeroom 4 afterwards receiving tender loving care from my boy toys.

Hey can I get a lemonade please?
Hi! Great to see you again! Been too long time since you’ve published here.
Happy belated bday, Bear! 🎂❤️
Heidi’s come with titties and a cake for you.
Upped the erotica in a story I wrote over a year ago, and going to submit here. It was a story I’ve always liked, tying nature to a witch’s emotions. Always had an erotic feel to it, to me anyway. I wrote the sex scene a little differently. Not what I’d call hot, but hopefully you’ll like it, and find it beautifully sensual.
Evening, my friends ❤️
I do hope you find an answer to your sinus problems, Kat! I feel the medical community has failed you so far. 
My sis and I saw Spider-Man today. The best of them all, imo.
Have a good rest of evening!
Hiya, Rumpies!
Nuttin’ but rain in Kentucky this weekend. A good time to stay in and scribble. 😊 I’m trying to figure out a time and place for a trip before EOY. Nowhere too far.

I'm on my knees asking for forgiveness
Sorry for the delay today 3 doctor's came and checked my 60 day hospice. I've restocked the Coke Zero and added Body Armor to the drive selection and brought berry tarts for those with a hunger
Good evening, Fuzzy Lion. 
I’ve been checking in on our Chiefs who put out some videos on their training camp. They’re looking good!

I have currently read, liked and commented on 38 of the competition stories (there are over 50 atm) and can concur that the standard is exceptionally high. I don't envy the judges. Here is a link to my effort: A Brush With Fate. Just disregard the 3 arms on the cover photo. 😈🤣 I honestly never noticed, concentrating on the words rather than the cover picture. 😳 A lesson learned! 🤣🤣
I noticed and freakin’ loved it! Made me laugh out loud. I’ve almost published covers with extra appendages or digits just to see if anyone would notice. 😉 It’s still a fab cover and story! 😊
Sometimes love is found by fate...

Good morning Gang
Happy place being talked of
To me anymore being with friends has been my happy place ☘️
We love being with you on here, Fuzzy Lion ❤️
Morning, Rumpies
My happy place this week is on the couch with Butters watching Shark Week on Discovery channel.
I think you can be more descriptive in 3rd person. Create a setting and atmosphere and show what you’re seeing. When in 1st person, you always have to worry about keeping his voice consistent while painting the scene for the reader. I think 1st person is best used for a highly emotional or introspective feel from one character.

Kimmi's always gotta be starting something
Yup, I’m real good at starting stuff. It’s the finishing that’s the problem. 🙄

Enjoying the clip-clop of horses outside my window on Mackinac Island. Hubby is working and I'm writing. Feels good to have the words flowing while I have time to devote to writing. These two things do not always line up.
It's nice to have a little break from the heat too.
Hope all y'all are having a good week! 🥰
Mackinac Island is on my bucket list! Enjoy!

Book done, ready for publishing. Waiting on the cover art to finish.
But in the meantime I'm getting it ready to reach out to multiple publishers and to self-publish.
Best wishes with publishers, Rowan! You can do it!
As for me, KimmiBeCreepy is going to be spreading sunshine all over the pages of Lush with a joyful end-of-the-world story in the queue. 🤣 After that I’m publishing a Steampunk one about a dying man, and then writing a man’s-worst-nightmare story inspired by a famous song and artist. The trick will be staying within Lush rules yet detailing so that the reader knows what it references. This cover gives a big hint. 
It’s the traffic that needs to worry with a polar bear on the road, Bear!
Morning, Rumpies
