Speed Limits are more of a Suggestion

Really, most people add 9 and go from there. I have at least one friend who might disagree. He is a state trooper, but his aim is more on truck drivers. He helped me realize I don't want to be a truck driver. I had toyed with the idea for a while, and even got info from a school, but he pointed out I couldn't even have a glass of wine the night before driving. So I've abandoned that career path and focused on the entertainment thing.

I'll still get to drive alot.

Did some research on my celebrity thriller charity project. When you google "celebrity thriller" you get a wierd video of the thriller dance with dead celebrities heads pasted on the dancers, people who died around the same time as Michael Jackson. I actually find it offensive. So I don't know if I want to call this undertaking "celebrity thriller". I googled "superstar thriller" and got a sales pitch for a dvd set. Nix that. Tried "ThrillStar" and like it. So be on the lookout for ThrillStar. No one's gonna save ya from the beast about to strike!

Gearing up to costume for Ah, Wilderness! at the Northfield Arts Guild. We have a photo shoot of the two principal actors Wednesday. Victorian Americana, sweet. I asked online for a key to the costume shop and then left my computer all day, so didn't hear back I could get the key until it was too late to pick it up. Therefore nothing will really happen till Monday. Which is quite alright. It's Defeat of Jesse James Days here in Northfield, and my son Nicholas turns 10 on Monday and we're celebrating this weekend.

Have characters mostly fleshed out for the Furry Vampire story I've decided to concentrate on. I have several story ideas but this one is the most fresh and fun. Think Twilight meets Eagle Vs Shark, sort of the Napoleon Dynamite of paranormal romance. I have finally hit on my forte. When people would ask what I write, and I'd say "romantic comedy" or "paranormal romance" they'd go "huh." But when I say Paranormal Romantic Comedy - the light goes on. It makes people smile, and I LOVE to make people smile.

Virtual Virginity Vamoosed

Inagural post, and too much to say! I have started a couple of blogs in a couple of different spots, but this one is home base, on the advice of a fellow blogger at DragonCon. People can find me more easily here.

Since you have found me, I guess I have some explaining to do. "Hearts Will Find A Way" - why that title? Well, I write Paranormal Romantic Comedy, and in my stories the Hearts of the characters Will Find A Way to live out their dreams, despite their time traveling ways, being ghosts, or having to go against the flow to say "Hey, I'm a vampire and I like to dress up in furry costumes, so what?" I also chose that title because my Heart has found a way to live out my own dreams, one of which is a huge charity fundraiser centered around the Thriller dance.

And why "Virtual Virginity Vamoosed"? The title for this, my first BlogSpot post, is not just an altruistic alliteration, it describes what has just happened to me: I started creating my online presence just this year. I am no longer new to this virtual world, that state of being out of the electric loop is gone, I am here and you can cuddle up and get used to me.

No cuddling without introductions! Hi, I'm Melinda. I write, act, sing, sew, and more. Visit my website for more details: www.MelindaEmanuel.info.

There I am, hope you enjoy my stories and performances. It's my purpose to make you smile.
