Supernatural Romantic Mystery & Suspense

Hi ,

The dolphins love us, whether we deserve it or not, but of course, we do. Every year when my husband Alan and I visit them in Florida, it's fresh and new at the Dolphin Research Center.

The DRC's this great place in Marathon, Florida Keys, with enthusiastic trainers and even more excited and playful dolphins. Many of the dolphins here were born at the facility, some rescued. There are multiple lagoons where the dolphins swim and perform daily. (See photos below.) And it's all mostly just for fun.

You get to know your favorites by name and feel the joy as they leap into the air, cruise by in the lagoon eyeballing you, or just clown around. These marine mammals are like big puppies, eager to please and sometimes displaying a mischievous side.

This past March, Alan and I forked out the bucks to get in the water with the dolphins. The DRC provided trainer Adam to help Alan in the water, and I was enraptured during our Dolphin Encounter swim. We felt the smooth sides of the bottlenose dolphins as they cruised by, and we were instructed to rub their flippers with our hands. They "danced" with us. As a grand finale, we each got a tow around the lagoon, sensing their powerful bodies as we hung onto their dorsal fins.

Yes, these amazing creatures have much to teach us about our daily lives: to have fun and to do what lights you up. The dolphins are trained by positive reinforcement only. There is no penalty if they ignore a command. Check out the photos below and be sure and play like a dolphin today.

Sending you much love, rays of golden sunlight, and peace,

Cathy

SPOTLIGHT ON THE LILITH & THE FAERIES ROMANTIC SUSPENSE SERIES #1:

BLUE MOON OVER MADAGASCAR

A trip to Ireland, an amazing man, and a faery mission to save lemurs....

These novels send you to exotic places and tell of Lilith, a bookstore manager who has given up on adventure and romance. And yet she finds this and more when she listens to a faery in her garden. The setting is here and now but includes the world of the nature beings--the seldom seen--who are accessible to all of us. Yes, you, too!

For a peek at this one, check it out here on AMAZON.

WHEN YOU ARE RUNNING THE CIRCUS OF THE DAMNED...

As soon as we got home from our idyllic vacation in Florida, everything went wrong. Leaking pipes in the basement, a family misunderstanding, Facebook hacking with three $900 bogus charges. I could have done better with it all, but evidently handling chaos doesn't come naturally to me. Here's my take on what to do:

Know that it's only temporary. Keep returning to this thought as often as needed.
Do all you can to relax. This can include bodywork, EFT tapping, watching funny movies, laughing with friends, whatever works best for you.
Stay in the moment. This means not dwelling on past chaos or negative experiences and not making up stories about how awful this is going to turn out, projecting a future dismal ending. Expect the best. Just deal with the present moment and know that you are loved and will be helped.

P.S. We got through it all and everything turned out well. Hope you have no idea of what I'm writing about.

BE CURIOUS

Play like a dolphin and follow your curiosity. Curiosity leads you where you naturally need to go, the yellow brick road to your best life. You can ask one simple question to a stranger, new friend, or acquaintance, and suddenly discover what you have in common and have a great conversation.

Or maybe an online course comes to your attention, and it's an area of special interest for you. This could be the class for you. By all means, sign up. We're here on Mama Earth to learn and grow and play outside. So go ahead and enjoy yourself!

Indie authors have to become wizards at marketing. Even if you have written the modern version of Gone with the Wind, you have to get your story out somehow. No one will know about it, and it will just wither and die in the Amazon (.com) jungle or wherever you publish. One way is to join with other similar writers to offer your book to new audiences.

If you have an interest, here are a number of novels you might peruse. Some gorgeous book covers, great titles, and even some bare man chests. Woo Hoo! To check it out, just go ahead and look at the book fair!
