Heartwarming Tale

Okay, so this tale doesn’t have anything to do with a German shepherd rescuing a baby from a submerged vehicle or a grandmother getting a surprise call from her long estranged only grandson, but to this newly published author hearing “I dreamed I was having a conversation with your characters” is pretty special.

I’ve been having conversations with my characters, Paula and Cassie, in my dreams for months now, so it’s nice to know they’re populating the dreams of others.

Here’s a little snippet:

Paula turned off the radio mid-song. “Tell me the story of why Cal called me Goldilocks”

Cassie’s eyes twinkled. “You know darned good and well why.”

“I know. I just need to hear it today.”

Cassie shifted in her seat. “The fishing guys came up with it. Cal, Delbert, Mel, and someone else, I can’t remember who, went fishing right after you two got married. Cal couldn’t stop talking about you. Everything you did was just right. Finally, Delbert or Mel, one of the two, said, ‘Sounds like you found yourself a Goldilocks. Everything is always just right.’ Cal thought that was hilarious and started calling you that. The name stuck.”

Paula shook her head. “I still can’t imagine what it was he thought I was doing right.”

Cassie rolled her eyes. “C’mon now Goldilocks, even you can’t be that innocent.”

A rosy blush covered Paula’s cheeks. “Oh my gosh! Surely Cal didn’t talk to the guys about—you know—sex!”

“Probably not, but then again, men will be men….”

If you’ve purchased my book, thank you!!! If you haven’t, what’s holding you back? Mayhem at the Happy Valley Motor Inn and Resort has gotten some terrific reviews on Amazon. A couple of them are even from people I don’t know….

Peace, people!
