Tawny Emperor Butterfly
These butterflies love to eat rotting fruit. I have pears that they are enjoying. And here is the underside of the Tawny Emperor Butterfly! They say they’re very jumpy, so it’s hard to get close and take pictures, but it was cool out when the one was resting on my brick work. The other above might have been feasting on the fermenting pears and drunk.

Loved the shadows he created! :)

And here I’m sharing all these butterfly pictures on Facebook, while I’m trying to identify them, and a friend saw this in the news about Monarch butterflies on the weather radar. Coincidence or something else? Too cool!

If you look really closely at the eye, you can see she's got an eye on Savage Hunger! I was trying to learn how to change eye color in eyes! I did play around with it and I didn't do what it was supposed to! But it kind of did. :) This was Silaynne's original eye.
Silaynne has some neat tutorials on how to do it.
Anyway! I'll keep playing around with it another day! Have to keep writing.
But I used a different technique to change the eye color, made it a little more visible in Dragon Fae....She has very pretty pale green eyes. I didn't want to change that to a bright green, but wanted to make her green eyes stand out a little more. :)
Only 13,000 words to go!!!
I had ARCs of A Howl for a Highlander come in last night, that I didn't realize were sitting next to my front door and figured I'd put out the call on Facebook to see if any reviewers wanted a copy to review, and voila! Within an hour, they were all asked for. I was shocked!!! First, that I got any copies, and 2nd that they went that fast!!!!
I'm so glad everyone is having fun with the wolves!
I expected to be getting requests for days until they were all gone. Shows what I know!
Now I've got to run out to get envelopes to ship them in. I could have sworn I bought two bundles of them, but I probably used all those already!
And...I have to say that about the man who jumped into the tiger's zoo pen--yikes!!!! Was it really worth it?
In my books I talk about the shifters becoming one with their shifter halves, but hey they ARE shifters. So they can do that!
I don't recommend anyone getting that close to a big cat!!! With wolves, which is why I never can understand that people make the comments that wolves will kill people because they don't, cougars and bears do, and tigers and lions do...(jaguars don't)...but you just don't want to pet the big cats. Or bears.
Okay, off to write and then I have to run into town for envelopes.
Have a nice Sunday and remember...if you are not a shifter, and even if you are--a werewolf or jaguar shifter don't belong in a tiger's pen...don't try to pet the big cat. Get a little one.
Or get them in my books. They're hunky and very safe. :)

I thought this was a fun way to show a little branding and have some fun with it. It's free at imikimi.com and this one shows just where I'm at--floating in the clouds as usual while the wolf is fully grounded!
Could be that the wolf is part of my pack and he's thinking about me. You never know.
Someone said I was having too much fun now that I am writing full time. You better believe it! I'm writing, of course. 3-4,000 words per day with the fast approaching deadline of Jaguar Fever, and then A SEAL Wolf Christmas after that. But getting creative is what it's all about when writing and promoting.imikimi - sharing creativity imikimi - sharing creativityI write in a fae world. Or...about a fae world, but here, if you just use your imagination a tiny bit, this is how the fae see me!
I had no idea the fae has an eye on me. Maybe wondering if I really do know something about them?
That can be dangerous, you see. The fae are tricksters visiting our world to amuse themselves at the expense of humans. So anyone who can see the fae are a danger to them.
That's how it all begins. Making up stories, that is. We have to feel them. Be the characters. Share their experiences. The more conflict they have, the more conflict we have. We don't just send our characters out into the big, bad world and let them take care of it all on their own. Not when we made up that big, bad world in the beginning.
It's just not fair. So WE have to experience all the joys and the downers, all the good stuff and the bad.Too.
The World of Fae
Whatever you endeavor to do, make it fun. Life is too short not to! Terry
