Good morning folks. I’ve been trying to think of some totally zany thing to spring on you and then scream April Fool with a hysterical, maniacal laugh but that is so not me. I never did like practical jokes and the old standbys of a piece of cardboard in a gum wrapper, switching the salt and sugar on the  dining table,  and one my late mother-in-law pulled, putting a nice sandwich of two pieces of bread with a little butter and a sheet of waxed paper in the middle in her hubby’s lunch box just ticked me off and seemed dumb. So no jokes, at least as far as my stuff goes today! Call me the straight person.

BUT, we are going to have a fun time! Most of us like our pets and animal companions a lot and there will be some fine stories featuring them today as well as some yummy tales about the shifters that are very popular with a lot of readers these days. Werewolves! Dragons! Big cats! That kind of  ultra-sexy “monsters” none of us would not mind finding under our bed at all!  So fasten those seat belts and lets take off.

By the way there are some neat prizes up for grabs today. Marcia James has a gorgeous silver and crystal necklace as a prize and Deirdre O’Dare will offer winner’s choice of a cat or dog themed charm bracelet. Lots of books of course and our usual $5 gift certs off and on plus the main $25 one to be won. You have to comment to get into the bingo game, the more times, the more chances. So do not be shy.

I glanced at the pre-scheduled posts and saw some yummy stuff coming your way. I know some other authors will be popping in soon also. Watch for Lyndi Lamont, Deirdre  O’Dare and several others.

Hope you had a happy, hoppy bunny day and that the rising sun or Risen Son according to your faith will shine warmly and gently in your life this month.
