May
Pippa and Hedge live happily ever after.

People
have always told me that I am a funny lady—that I make people laugh. But as any
writer will tell you, humor is hard to write. One man’s funny is another man or
women’s corny, silly, stupid.
Nevertheless,
Cinderella Texas, my soon to be published western romance is a little scary. Is
it another Christian Gothic like Gatehaven where my setting was a haunting
mansion in England?
No.
Then why is it scary?
Because
Cinderella Texas made me laugh as I was writing it. But were readers going to
like my kind-of-funny novels? As I was watching Fox News and reading about the
wedding of Kate Middleton’s sister, Pippa, in a line of updates at the bottom
of the screen, I read it like this. Pippa Middleton weds Hedge Fund Manager.
Hedge.
Or Hedge Fund. Or Hedge F. Manager. What a terrible name for a romantic hero
any way you write it—much less the name of the husband of someone as lovely as
Pippa Middleton. I’m so glad that Hedge’s real name is James Matthews. It’s more
heroic and romantic, too, than Hedge Fund Manager. But then, what do I know?

P.S.
That’s me in the wedding dress on the arm of my late father, waiting to walk down the aisle. I don’t own a picture of Pippa in hers.

Molly,
I sometimes "see" things like that at first glance - and get a laugh out of it. We need more laughs. Glad you see them, too!
Sounds fun can't wait to read!
Thanks Davalyn and Margaret. Science says that laughter is good for your health. The Bible says that a merry heart is like a medicine, and I laugh a lot. I just wish everybody did more of it.
It made me laugh. Your books should be in good shape. I can't wait to read it.
Thanks Davalyn, Margie and Susan for posting a comment. I hope you like Cinderella Texas.
Love,
Molly
